It’s a bank holiday Monday after kings coronation on Saturday. How odd it felt, I was trying to think what day it was yesterday afternoon and wished it were a Saturday, so that I would have two more days of holiday.

I finished reading Jacqueline Wilson’s double act about Twins Ruby and Garnet. It was a very small book. I stared reading it yesterday night and have finished reading just now. Ruby and Garnet have their diaries and I wanted to record my thoughts. About sisters how we used to fight etc. my daughter is an only child. She plays with her toys and seems happy except when she goes on the crying thing saying she does not feel okay. I don’t fell well. All her hormones..

Yesterday we were watching Ilayaraja’s video on YouTube where he was giving a master class on composing and he composed a song based on a situation where a son is going to kill his dad and he composed a lullaby..

He we saw Ben Fold? Not sure I remember her surname. He composed a song in less less 10 mins and it was amazing. I spent sometime yesterday learning sight reading based of a Udemy course. I seem to remember the notes and fingering. It was clear till yesterday. Few mode videos to go.. and I should be good at sight reading I think. I have to return a French hacking book in the central library as someone has reserved it and I can’t renew it.. som going through some chapters quickly very well knowing I would not able to finish read I g with many other things I am doing. My husband was cleaning the garden yesterday. He did the cooking as well. So it would be my turn to cook today.. 

I also doing urban sketching based off a book I got in the library. For the past few weeks, I take the book everyday to office and for lunch break go to Galleries and do a quick drawing from the book. I need to read what the book says and maybe do sketch8ng based of real life and not from that book as the creativity is already done and I would be just copying. 

Also started reading Harry Potter  and the philosopher’s stone.halfway through the bookMany times I have tired to read. But I remember reading half way and then something happens and the book is left unread. Saw Simbu’s movie pathu Thala.. with Karthik’s son as hero..Gautam Karthik.

Been in the garden yesterday, I thought I should buy some seeds at least wild flowers for the raised garden that wen created last year.. for vegetables and all the tomato plants got blight and died. So no more vegetables but I think I can buy some flowering plants…

All the things we do.. all the things we do to keep ourselves busy. And with my sister still to read only 54 books to read of the 100 books to read from bbc radio page that is archived and I am on a read8ng spree too. Finished off books with less pages.. so finished girls in love and double act.also reading watership down about rabbits..

Well, I will finish of reading Harry Potter and philosophers stone.

Trying to learn some knots from Paracord jewellery and I can’t stop myself from thinking of buying Paracords. Should it from range or wilko and proper job or where do I,get it from a city centre shop. I know few shops..always wanted t9 go there.but went there once and did not buy anything. I got tense.. I wish I can go with someone to the shop rather than go alone..

 It is a Saturday. You won’t believe what I have been doing this morning. I had like 256 tabs open in my iPad. I was thinking of bringing them down to manageable number. I go through them one by one and as usual represents my varied interests. Trying to master programming. Learning arts and crafts. Learning languages.. Japanese, Russian etc etc. reading books.. fiction non fiction. Even this blog window was open with some line written and I had to delete it to start this one.  So after our cruise where my husband was not well, we came back last Wednesday to go to A and E and then surgery and my sister goes back to their place and she ends up with an infection  and then in hospital. What is happening. Am I in a dream/nightmare. What is happening.  I finished reading Harlan coben’s new book I will find you.. the drama.. Saw the movie amigos in Telugu yesterday about doppelgängers etc. interesting.. then saw another drama of sJ surya - vadhandhi that reminded me of watc...

 Well, me and my sister, well my sister has decided to read the remaining 56 books of the 100 books to read by the bbc. I was enthusiastic as there were few quick wins of books that were less than 100 pages.. so I sort of agreed but she want to read them by the end of this year. With so many things going on in my mind - office, hobbies, house work, gardening and ever changing hobbies, hobbies and hobbies,,also for her it is 56 for me it would be more than ninety. I have read few books so long ago that I hardly remember the story and I would like to re-read them. Nowadays I do guardian sudoku and crossword everyday and that takes around  45 mins.
