Mice & Cobras, Goddesses & Glitches

Happy Sunday lovelies!

This week sure has made up for how quickly last week went - it's gone so slowly! On Wednesday I returned to work. It was half days only this week, in preparation for a complete return to work next week, so it meant I could keep up with my posting, crafting and reading. I will probably be overwhelmed with work over the next few weeks, so I will probably not be able to be doing all that for much longer. I've been making the most of my last few days of "freedom" this week by trying to get as much done as I can.

This weeks updates on my site:

• If you haven't already checked it out, I have created a new page on my website - Cloud's Silver Linings Designs. This is where all my digital designs are shared. Other digital images and image manipulations will be there too!

• 3 concert photography photos in StormCloud Photography (of Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes from the Kerrang! Tour),

• 1 blog post of a crafting project in Cloud's Silver Linings (Knitted Christmas Catnip Mouse),

• 8 Cloud's Silver Linings Designs (found in the Cloud's Silver Linings Designs tab!!!)

• 6 book reviews in My Books & Reviews - A collection of some of these photos can be seen at the bottom of this blog update, however reviews are all attached to the photos on the webpage. The books shared this week mark the last books I read in February. The book updates shared from now on are from March.

  • Three of the photos shared this week has some quote designs created by myself. These can be seen on the original Instagram post, I link to the posts below.

My personal update:

• Since the last update, I have read 3 books.

• My current read is The Girl Who Lived Twice by David Lagercrantz.

• My book quote design pieces this week have been shared on my Bookstagram. If you haven't already seen them, you can check them out here:

  • Hereafter: photos 3-9 (photos 6-9 unfortunately had to be cropped to share on Instagram) - LostInABook (@notanotheremptyskull) • Instagram photos and videos

  • Divine By Mistake: photos 3-9 - LostInABook (@notanotheremptyskull) • Instagram photos and videos

  • Divine By Blood: photos 3-5 - LostInABook (@notanotheremptyskull) • Instagram photos and videos

• I have finished the last project I was working on, and because of the project, I have come up with an idea for a new knitting project which I am excited to try out.

• I have some more book quotes due out next week on my Bookstagram. The first set of quotes should be shared on Tuesday - keep an eye out then if you want to see it then!

• I am on the last episode of Glitch and I'm still enjoying the series. I'm not sure I'm ready for the season to end, especially as they're not making any more seasons!

• Throughout the course of the last week, I've also been watching Cobra Kai with my Mum. It was recommended to us by various friends or family members, and after watching the 3 Karate Kid films (for the first time) last week, we finally started the series. I was quite surprised at how much I'm enjoying it, it's been a lot of fun and full of emotions. I was expecting the series to be quite predictable (as I found the last 2 films were), however Cobra Kai hasn't been so far. We're half way through season 3, and I'm hoping to have finished it by the end of next week.

• Another week down and another week where I've been working out daily! A lot of my working out has been Yoga, but I've thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm a bit worried about where I'll be able to find the time to keep it up alongside everything else I want to keep up, but I don't want to give it up as I can already feel an improvement in myself and my flexibility has improved as well.

• I'm hoping to be reopening my Etsy shop at some point next month. I have some pieces (hopefully) prepared for my shop reopening - if all goes to plan, I'll be able to share the news with you next week!!
