So what are you going to do instead?

Today I have almost completed a 3D puzzle of the Etihad I was bought for Christmas. More challenging to the brain than a regular puzzle but pretty good fun - I'll sleep well tonight!
Was the box empty when you removed the lid? ;)
 
I’m still working so time is still ticking over ok at the minute. It’s the weekends that are the issue. No pub, no football and no golf. Me and my mates are playing our monthly game of poker which we usually take turns at hosting, via Pokerstars and Zoom tonight. No idea how it will work but worth a go for some banter and bit of normality. Just had a new cross trainer delivered and looking at punch bags, to try and kit out my garage a bit to keep the fitness up. Also keep eying my guitar. Would love to get semi-decent, but have never had the time - that excuse is out the window now I suppose.
 
Last night we watched 1 man 2 governors with James Corden
On YouTube as the National theatre released it for 7 days

Operator error. Turned the plans over to find the back is full of diagrams and they look very complex. Main structure built but lots more to do!
 
So this morning I thought I can't avoid doing some extra housework as I've no real excuse - except I hate it. Being a creature of routine, habit and goals I decided to do a little spreadsheet with a job a day...not to overtax myself you see. Then I can tick it off and feel quite chuffed with myself. Today was wash, rinse and polish the quartz worktops in the kitchen. 15 minutes or so I reckoned - 45 minutes later I was rethinking this whole plan.

We do need sunglasses in the kitchen though!!

Oh and my hands are even more wrecked than they were from all the washing and sanitising.

On a brighter note the skateboard I ordered arrived. Myself and the dogs are going to learn to ride it. So far Barley has attacked it every time I've stepped on it and I'm not as well balanced on it as I was as a kid.
 
Well all the left over deckboards are now a couple more small planters, about a dozen pots that werent being used have been potted up and a lot of out of date seeds have been sown. Cant see how it doesnt end with an overgrown garden full of beautiful flowers in a few months lol
 
Well The Etihad is really taking shape and looks amazing - of course. Took some time yesterday to build a treat dispenser/reaction trainer for the dogs...


 
Just looking at the pictures I can feel my waistline expanding... Goodness knows what it's doing to my sugar count... I'll be looking at making something similar for when my grandsons can resume visits...
The little ramekin dishes as perfect for smaller portions, going to have to be disciplined when slicing the big one ?
