Day 7 of 90 Days of Spring....The Director's Cut.

 

It’s been a very damp squib of a start to both spring and my “Get Active” 90 Day Challenge. We were lucky here in the Midlands to escape the worst of Storm Chandra’s fury, but we’ve had relentless rain for the past week. Not the dramatic, biblical downpour that batters you into submission and then clears off. No — this is that miserable, light, sideways rain that lulls you into thinking “Ah sure, it’s grand”… while quietly soaking you through to the soul.

As a result, I’ve continued to hibernate indoors. Doing what, I hear you ask?
No? Just the voices in my head again? Right so.

Well, I’ve binged the first half of Bridgerton season four — because you really can’t beat a bit of dramatic bodice-ripping to warm the cockles of your heart! I’ve also watched the slow and painful demise of the glory days of the Irish rugby team. (Character-building, apparently.) And I’ve returned to the comforting clickety-clack of my trusty knitting needles, which feel like therapy you can wear.

I have Rita Tighe to thank for my very appropriate mug — a daily reminder that while spring may be technically here, motivation is still negotiating its arrival.



At this rate, my 90 Days of Spring will be sponsored by Netflix, wool, and denial.
