Tired mostly

Two little alpine strawberries surrounded by green leaves
Pink and grey clouds in a pale blue sky. No visual clues to indicate the ABSOLUTE RACKET those monsters are making. Still.
A bright turquoise, ancient IKEA fleece blanket sits on some mostly dead grass. On top of it is me, cross legged but shifting every 5 mins because I’m old and my limbs go to sleep quickly, a now-empty salad bowl (other than a hula hoop (beef) packet and a tunnocks wafer (dark) wrapper) and fork, a library book with a notecard from a friend as a bookmark and an old colourful, me-made iPad case that I use to keep it safe on its commute.
Sneakily photographed by my SIL whilst leaning on a pole watching some summer village by the sea antics. Boats bob about in the background and it’s mostly hair as far as I’m concerned
Me, gently glowing after my millionth trip up and down several sets of narrow stairs trying not to break my neck 😰
A pizza on a wooden board balanced between my knees and my boobs, my feet up on a pink chair. A booze free fake aperol with a hefty chunk of ice sits on the pink table next to a terracotta pot of alpine strawberries. There are pink flowers wafting about in the middle distance and a jasmine climbing the fence next to my veg trug in the background
A perfect pastry poking out of a paper bag, right before I shove it in my mouth in the street..
A dark grey kitchen with a horrible pale grey worktop, an Indian block print Roman blind in pink, red and green and a circular rag and jute rug on the floor, the centre of which is predominantly red. The point of the photo, the new wallpaper, is just applied to the splashback area and is a red and green block printed pattern. The rest of the walls and ceiling are painted white.
One flower on an amaryllis looking out of a window with Venetian blinds. The flower is white with the tiniest hint of pink at the edges of some of the flowers
A stack of recipe books on an Indian pink & green floral tablecloth: Leon Big Flavours, One pot One portion, Persiana Easy, Persiana Everyday.
A yellow mug of tea that says “I want to lose weight lying on the sofa eating biscuits” on the side of it
A black and white pic of my post-40 hair being a frizzy curly mess after being left to air dry when I’ve had straight as a die hair that wouldn’t hold a curl for most of my life.
Glorious purple, orange and red skies above silhouetted houses
Jeans clad legs on a bed. Pink striped socks. A window with a load of grey nothing outside.
A bowl of Heinz tomato soup and some cheese on toast
An incredible individual monkey bread with a big swirl of toffee sauce and a dusting of icing sugar on top, seconds before I demolished it.
An old Bentley outside a nice hotel on a little summer mini break that bought for myself as a treat and ruined by taking a man with me.
Screenshot of a dating app saying “You ran out of people”. Too right I did. Left, left, left, left, left.. A girl’s got standards.
Traitors Uncloaked is on the telly in the background. A sweet potato and cauliflower curry is in a bowl on an embroidered cushion on my lap. My feet are up, the lighting is gentle.
Some square white tiles on a wall with spacers in between them
5 huge NYC mini M&M cookies on a wooden board
The sun setting behind a hill next to the beach. A dog is playing in a large pool on the sand.
