Treated myself to a new crochet hook this weekend, and made myself promise to finish one project before carrying on with the next- because with three on the go nothing is ever gonna get finished 😅
(Also, stitch markers are amazing, sooooo helpful)

Ok after just about surviving the violence inducing start to this hobby, I think I might actually nearly be entering the 'maybe it actually could be relaxing' stage.... I might only ever do one stitch, but hey, lots of them make a blanket right?

A nice day of webinars about witch trials, chilling with the dog, and carving a pumpkin (the first we've had for years!). Now opted for Omen 3 for evening viewing. Happy Halloween y'all, I hope you are enjoying yourselves 🖤

Finally watched Late Night With the Devil - more comedy than I was expecting, but very enjoyable and would probably stand up to a rewatch. Very well executed and some interesting threads. Reminded me a little of @thenosleeppodcast.bsky.social vibes 🖤

Get yourself a partner that looks at you the same way as my dog looks at the forbidden chicken burger 😅🖤

Finished 'Old Soul' by Susan Barker last night and still thinking about it. Such a gorgeously written, unnerving horror. It's not loud, or gory, but it sneaks under your skin. Highly recommend (especially as it is spooky season, after all) 🖤😱

Been gradually introducing this menace to being off lead (quiet places, trying to make it as safe and controlled as possible) - today was one of those days where there were moments where her training seemed to go straight out the window and I felt like such a bad dog mom

Feeling the Fallout vibes around the village. Looking forward to the second season, and thinking I might need to break the games out again 🖤

Feels like the feed needs more animals right now. I offer these shifty looking candidates. Plotting, as always 🖤

Taking a lie down at lunch to try and stave off the unwelcome guest of a migraine and Marles is practicing her bedside manner. Very sweet, albeit probably related to her main concern over if this is going to impact her next walk 🖤

A book I keep thinking about and would be my go-to recommend at the moment if someone were to ask is Emily Habeck's 'Shark Heart' which I guess is a romance but also so many other things in a weird sci-fi fable and it made me cry (twice) but I love it 🖤🦈

Managed to time lunchtime's dog walk with the worst of the rain, but the park was empty so I let the dog off lead and we played ball for a bit... Until she knocked me down like a ten pin bowling skittle so we came home soaked and slightly bruised 😅 now if only I could have a nap like her 🖤

I don't think I've talked about this much here but my novel GRIND SPARK will be 9 years old this year and it's still one of my favourite achievements #booksky thedustlounge.com/grind-spark-...

The longer days mean there's time to get the dog out into the fields after work - she gets a good sniff around, I get to shake off the days stress, we both come home knackered. Everyone's a winner 🖤😴

And the dog had so many firsts - first time stopping overnight somewhere new, first time in the sea, first time on a tram... she had the best time and was the best girl 🖤
