It’s become Monday a little too quickly!
I’m not organised yet, I didn’t do plank at the weekend or use the form roller which I really need to nor did I sort out a post for today!
However The Guardian have an interesting interview with Simon Pegg which helped me understand why I didn’t like his films from the past decade and a bit so that’s handy
I’m not sure why however there seem to be a lot of oddly shaped strawberries growing at the allotment this year
This is one that doesn’t look too much like male body parts
we have so many strawberries – mutant and otherwise, that I need to check how best to freeze some pretty ASAP
I skim-read this book during gym workouts and still founding woefully wanting in terms of plot and character development
Joanie isa public health researcher who screws up her personal life (screwing your married boss is stupid – sorry) and goes to the middle of nowhere an elderly relative she barely knows dies and leaves her their huge house
She takes her best friend – who is a bad friend, with her, meets some unlikeable men and badly investigates missing children
I strongly suggest avoiding this book

Somehow more time ran away despite my good intentions
I’ve got my horribly stressful course out of the way so that’s helpful
The gym I go to is closing so that is not helpful
In theory I don’t need a gym – I have free weights, a bike and trainers. What I need to get better at is making the time
On a happy note I know that stepping lunges, stepping backwards lunges and side-steps with touching my foot are things I need to do more as I ache slightly today
Although that could have been doing bridge with feet inverted slightly so the heels touch, that was surprisingly hard
Lately I’ve had good intentions and little time or energy
It’s nothing major triggering this, just a combination of stuff – an annoying course coming up that I have to travel for and get up early for, my manager is being odd, my company is being iffy, I want more time – and space, to do things I want, plus sometimes my darling spouse can be a little vexing
I’m sure I am also vexing, so I will try harder not to be – both vexed or vexing
I also need to use my time more wisely, not entirely sure how to do that!
There is a cd coming out soon that I probably want a physical copy of, so I needed to make some space to fit it on the limited space permitted for CDs
To do this I dug out a few albums that I couldn’t remember, turns out there was a good reason for this so I now own less PoisonBlack and Breaking Benjamin albums!
Happily I did also find Nine Inch Nails’ ‘Pretty Hate Machine’, it’s dated as anything however still fun!
Updating this again is totally on my to do list
Just having a few issues with motivation to do anything at all
Struggling to even make a new playlist for the car at the moment, hopefully it’s just a little bump that will be overcome ASAP!
‘This Fallen Prey’ is the third book in Kelley Armstrong’s Rockton series and it really is an interesting premise for a series; Rockton is a completed isolated, unknown and off the grid community populated by people who have left their pasts behind – for good reason
Casey Duncan is the main female lead of the three books to date, like seemingly all of Kelley Armstrong’s female leads she’s strong, a tiny bit damaged and determined to do the right thing regardless of the personal cost
As a high level description: Book one set the scene, book two was kidnapping and rape themed, book three is outside interference posing a problem. I like book one, book two is ok – personally I dislike the use of rape as a plot device, and book three seems to spend a lot of time wandering around the wood and putting Casey’s dog in various perilous situations
It’s an ok story and sort of flows, despite a rushed reveal ‘twist’ and ending on a weird semi-cliff hanger. However the remote setting of the books does limit their potential plots and my gut feel is at some point Casey and her friends will have to start their own community, which would probably be a slightly more adult version of ‘The 100’ , which I can honestly live without

The snow is nearly all gone and I rather fancied ice cream, happily there was an offer on a flavour of Ben & Jerry’s that I hadn’t tried before – Home Sweet Honeycomb
It’s sweet cream ice-cream with chocolate covered chunks of honeycomb and honey caramel swirls, it’s also very tasty
It’s not going to replace Phish Food as my all-time favourite, however it’s not far off

I’ve not played Angry Birds, or Candy Crush or anything mobile games really, so my watching ‘The Angry Birds Movie’ was more because I wanted to watch something silly and ideally funny
Much to my surprise this film delivered both silly AND funny whilst having a half-way decent plot; there is an island of birds who are flightless and mostly happy – Red is a notable exception in terms of happy and has be ostracised by being sent to anger management class. Naturally the anger management class makes him angry too…
Then along come the green pig who initially seem nice – suspiciously nice, and naturally Red’s anger does come in handy.
It isn’t a highbrow film, however it was perfect for a Sunday night when I was in denial about work looming
