there is always more gardening to do
POV picture, I am sitting on a deck with a container garden. My grey jeans and hiking boots are in frame, as well as a small vintage coffee mug sitting on the chair arm. There are planters with plants in them, seedlings in trays, garden tools, buckets, empty pots, and a bag of mulch, scattered about the deck. A nice view of trees and blue skies is in the background

Painting is good, actually because I can play with all my current colour obsessions without buying more clothes or home decor items (or becoming frustrated by not being able to find the perfectly coloured item).

Escape room and 1/2 price steak dinner date night was perfection. And French onion soup on a -14 night was absolutely correct.
Me and my partner taking a selfie in a room with a bunch of lasers - the kind you’d have to sneak thru in a spy movie Two bowls of French onion soup & a handsome man about to eat the soup Me in a bright blue sweater, holding a glass of rose. In the foreground is a massive portion of steak frites on a wooden board.
