Today St. Anthony in Meneage. #VirtualTour

How has Saturday been? I had hoped to get a good start in the #NovelNovember Readathon but so tired I ended up sleeping 11 hours (most unusual) and then issue brought to my attention so had to spend a lot of today on that so little reading so far. Them tired again tonight so may be limited reading for day 1. #StupidCovid

#DailyCheckIn

CBee #StupidCovid is the perfect hashtag!! 4y
Andrew65 @CBee Thought time for a new one! 4y

CocoReads Not much reading here either. Or writing. I took a big fat nap and then have mostly been staring out the window. It‘s cold and blustery today. We had some sun early in the day to burn the frost off but it‘s gotten progressively more cloudy and windy. 4y
JacqMac Excellent hashtag! I have fallen into the TV today. I did do a little cooking. And drank a whole lot of tea, but I‘m having trouble concentrating on reading. It‘s going to be a slow readathon for me, too. 4y
Lynnsoprano Had a chance to read this morning after I finished all the exercises for my knee. Grandson is keeping me entertained this afternoon. 😄 The 6yo is a nonstop talker who asks a million questions. He‘s wearing me out. 4y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick No results yet so I'm still in the hotel. Woke up and did a couple hours of easy work while I was feeling motivated. I read about 100 pages in a book to finish that up. I'm back at the desk to do some bookish tasks toward my Crush the Rush Goals, catch up on a bit that I've missed here, and then I plan to finish the last 100 or so pages of Legendary. Having time to myself will hopefully allow me to get stuff done I otherwise might not. 4y
Jennifer3 I love all these updates and the shared struggle of dealing with #stupidCovid 4y
Andrew65 @CocoReads Another overcast and/or rainy day today. I NEED sone sun! 4y
Andrew65 @JacqMac We could be together on this! 4y
Andrew65 @Lynnsoprano Love 5 - 6 year olds but so draining. 😂 4y
Andrew65 @Jennifer3 Most definitely shared and being able to get things of chest here certainly helps. 4y
Jennifer3 @Andrew65 I love the support and love across this platform. Being here in the US after all the election stuff and our surge in Covid cases - I am worn out but I see some hope for the new year. 4y
Andrew65 @Jennifer3 Yes, may just be the distant Inkling of hope 🤞🤞🤞 (edited) 4y
BookwormM Rain stopped long enough for me to have a half hour walk so not all bad but very wet and miserable here 4y
Velvetfur I'm glad you had so much sleep Andrew, your body needed it 👍🏻 Still no news for me about the DBS check but agency hope it gets done over weekend so I can start on Tues or Thurs next week. Went for a nice long walk today and got totally rained on, brolly finally broke completely so had to put in a bin, but strangely I enjoyed being out in the rain! Rain didn't get heavy, maybe that's why 🙂 4y
Velvetfur PS Love the new Covid hashtag 😂 4y
Velvetfur @Lynnsoprano Your grandson sounds precious 🙂 I love them at that age, when they're full of curiosity about the world 😁 4y
Velvetfur @Jennifer3 More love and support on its way from me 😁 We're all so relieved for you over there to have kicked out 45! 👍🏻 4y
JacqMac @Lynnsoprano I miss the endless question phase my kids went through. It is exhausting though. Enjoy the entertainment. lol 4y
IamIamIam Hugs to everyone!!! I'm having a tough time getting settled because I'm still achy and everyone seems to think nothing happened yesterday so I'm in demand as much as I usually am... 🙄 I'm hoping to check out later, maybe hide in the basement provided I can make it down the stairs! 4y
Andrew65 @Velvetfur Keeping fingers crossed for you. 🤞🤞🤞🤞 4y
Andrew65 @IamIamIam Sending positive thoughts 🥰 4y
kezzlou85 Haven't done much reading myself either but did finish one book. Been an okay day though. 4y
Andrew65 @kezzlou85 well done 😊 4y
Velvetfur @Andrew65 Thank you 😁 4y
Velvetfur @EadieB ah ok, I didn't know they were recounting the votes! 😁 4y
Velvetfur @EadieB oops.... I admit I've only seen headlines and not read too much into it, so it looks like the headlines are a bit...well, wrong. We obviously need more time to see what the real result is 🙂 4y
tracey38 #stupidcovid is right! I did get a lot of reading in today. Even got one book read for the readathon. 4y
TheSpineView I'm exhausted too. I spent the entire day at a horse show. Was up at 5am and at the barn a little after 6AM. 15 riders and horses from my barn went. 5 trailers, 13 horses, 1 trainer and 4 helpers (to wrangle the younger kids). I rode my own horse but spent a lot of free time helping the younger kids. Just want to sleep. 4y
Andrew65 @tracey38 Well done 👏👏👏 4y
Andrew65 @TheSpineView Go have some good rest. 😊 4y
jb72 I‘ve been lazy all day long. 4y
JanuarieTimewalker13 I‘m watching the film Edie and loving it!! Set in Scotland and I said to myself: “I think this looks familiar from Andrew‘s photos!!”. Film on pause bc I had to eat and charge phone. I finished an audiobook...this is the kind of multitasking I like. Lol 4y
Velvetfur @EadieB I'm starting to realise that now 🙂 4y
Velvetfur @EadieB I meant I'm starting to realise the real news is never reported! Sorry, I should have clarified better (I mean I've started to realise over the last year or so, when we find out the real news online rather than the news that is reported) x 4y
Velvetfur @EadieB I agree about the news media trying to make people think what they want them to think 🙂 I don't actually read any news, I just see headlines here and there, but I also don't always think to look for more detailed info elsewhere - that can be a new year resolution for me, maybe! Thank you, and 'stay safe' to you too xx 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Jennifer3 me too! If we could just leave politics out of it... 4y
Andrew65 @EadieB @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I did comment at one point to avoid discussing politics. (edited) 4y
Andrew65 @EadieB You may not have seen it but I did do a post on one of these posts after I had seen one of the arguments that was ongoing. 4y
Andrew65 @eadieb @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks We should always make our comments or posts on Litsy. Positive, so that we all keep Litsy the positive place it is. If it‘s not positive or argumentative best avoided. Obviously tensions around politics in US at this moment are very emotive on many levels, and running high. So put simply should be avoided. 4y
Andrew65 @eadieb I can‘t control what people say or think, or their opinions, and not my site I just put some daily posts up so as a group we SUPPORT each other. Not my job to control people who are disagreeing or get involved in their disagreements. We are all adults and responsible for our own actions. (edited) 4y
Andrew65 @EadieB Totally agree that not healthy to discuss them on Litsy, but as I say I am not the Litsy police. I stopped tagging you as you said earlier you had mentioned it wasn‘t a safe place for you and you weren‘t generally commenting. I‘ve already apologised if that was the wrong thing to do. I‘m not here to form an opinion on American politics or what people say about it. (edited) 4y
Andrew65 I will stop commenting on this now because not productive. Just let me know if you want tagged In future. @EadieB Don‘t do conflict and I have apologised twice now. 4y
Jennifer3 I will no longer comment on these posts and I am sorry that my post created this arguments. @Andrew75 and @EadieB 4y
Andrew65 @Jennifer3 Hi Jennifer I do hope you do keep commenting, happy to have you or anyone commenting 😍 (edited) 4y
Andrew65 I have just checked back to your comment @Jennifer3 and absolutely nothing wrong with it. You hit the two key words these posts were set up for to show love and support and to check daily on each other and help us get through this Covid Pandemic. 😊 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Jennifer3 my comment had nothing to do with yours ❤️ Litsy has always been a very positive place and everyone‘s emotions are just running high and we are all stressed. Please don‘t think it had anything to do with you 💞 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Andrew65 @Jennifer3 I completely agree! We have to love and support one another despite our differences ❤️💙 4y
Andrew65 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Totally agree 🥰 @Jennifer3 (edited) 4y
eanderson Couldn‘t agree more! #stupidcovid 4y

Rock in Cornwall today. #VirtualTour

How has Saturday been? I‘ve struggled to relax today, but tried to persevere with reading. Felt on edge for much of the day.

#DailyCheckIn

Chelleo Bouncing back and forth between cleaning and trying to relax....not a good strategy for either. Hope you get a chance to completely relax at some point today. 4y
tracey38 Reading this afternoon. Hoping everyone is having a good weekend. 4y

Andrew65 @Chelleo Thanks, I think this whole situation had us all on edge at times. So intense at points and trying to keep school open for all (as expected to do) amongst rising cases is leading to this I think as well as the emotional energy of dealing with everyone else‘s issues. (edited) 4y
JacqMac It‘s so very stressful. You are carrying a big load @Andrew65 I have been having trouble concentrating on anything today. We have a huge amount of smoke from the west coast fires in the US. We had to keep all our windows closed. But we are going to go out for a walk anyway. I need to get out for awhile. Hopefully some rain will come soon. 4y
DieAReader @Andrew65 I can‘t even imagine the mental, physical & emotional exhaustion you must be going through?❤️ I do hope you are able to relax today. Spending a quiet-ish afternoon with my Mère (grandma) & my little (not so little 19 yr old 2nd cousin). Mère has enlisted hubs into some ?puzzling, while I‘m doing some reading & my cousin is doing some online school work. We may round out the day with ?? but, that‘s yet to be determined. 4y
Velvetfur Sorry to hear of the stress Andrew, this must have been a really hard week for you 🙁 I hope you manage to relax a bit tomorrow, we'll still have nice weather so maybe you'll be able to sit out in the sun for a bit, for your reading xxx 4y
JanuarieTimewalker13 Andrew, try a cup of chamomile tea. Elevate your legs and pick a mantra like “serenity”. The other day I had to say “it‘s ok” about 10 times in repetition, and then, it was ok. 4y
kezzlou85 Bless ya @Andrew65 sorry you haven't been able to relax too much. Been a calm day here as have had a migraine for most of it. 4y
CocoReads Relaxed a lot today as I had the house more or less to myself. Eldest brought me lunch (potato soup) and otherwise I‘ve just chilled. My feet are hurting badly today so with the exception of laundry, I haven‘t been on them much. Desperately need a grocery trip before tomorrow‘s forced pharmacy fun but I may do that after dinner. I second the cup of tea and feet up idea, take care Andrew! 4y
Texreader Oh I hate days when I feel like you do. Hope you are doing better. Productive day here. Worked on the yard, cleaning up after a wicked hot and dry summer. Flu shots and now at the lake. 4y
Moonprismpower Hi! So you live in Cornwall? If so, how close are you to Truro Community Library? I ask because I work at Truro Public Library on Cape Cod in Massachusetts. 🙂 4y
Suet624 @Moonprismpower I'm jealous. I love Truro. 4y
Moonprismpower @Suet624 well I guess we have that in common! 4y
TheSpineView An uneventful day. I am thankful for any day like this. So much cooler. I can tell fall is on the way. I am currently sitting in the sun room with the door open to the deck and enjoying the cool breeze. Lovely! 💙 🌬 4y
eanderson Love these pictures! 4y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Not as much reading time as I hoped for today, but I got some cleaning done and saw a few friends. We live right by Town Hall and they hosted a Hispanic Heritage Festival in their parking lot. It's mostly food trucks and vendors, so we did a lap and grabbed some snacks. @Andrew65 I'm sorry that you're finding it difficult to relax and shut off for the weekend. I hope the conspiracy theorists are right and it all goes away on election day. 🙄 4y
gradcat @Andrew65 How are you guys doing? I heard that there would be more lockdowns over there? Is that right? Inquiring because I‘m not sure how much of Europe is closing down again. Anyway, I hope you were finally able to relax. ♥️😁 4y

Port Gaverne in Cornwall #VirtualTour

How has Saturday been? We decided to have a drive across country into Wales and onto Llandudno. A nice break to hopefully take in the good weather expected tomorrow. 🤞

#DailyCheckIn

CocoReads Fall like weather here and the weirdest football season has begun. It‘s a home game weekend and yesterday was strange without scalpers on every corner and a largely empty Notre Dame stadium on the tv. Hubs is watching the game and I‘m off reading. Enjoy your road trip! 4y
JacqMac I love the photos today. Water is so relaxing. Our weather is very fall like, but our afternoons are still a little warm. Except for that day last week when it was snowing. But we will pretend that didn‘t happen. Took a trip to the bookstore today. That always makes any day better. 4y

TrishB Lovely pics ❤️ been watching footie and reading on and off. Quiet day. 4y
TheSpineView I have had a lovely day so far. Of course I went to the barn this morning and rode. Came home and did a few things now I am settling into read for the rest of the afternoon. 4y
DieAReader Definitely Fall like weather here too. Decided it was time to turn on the furnace😳 even though it still seems early. A lot of dampness in the air thanks to off & on rain &⛈ we‘ve been getting for the last 2 weeks, with more expected anytime today. Quiet day today & so far haven‘t done much. Just settling in to get some TBR stacks made for #ReadtoBreathe #SuperSeptember ☕️🎶📝 Happy Saturday everyone🥰❤️ 4y
kezzlou85 Been a much better day. Took daughter on the bus to build up her confidence once more. Hopefully Monday will be better now. 4y
BookwormM Had my flu jab now my arm feels like someone punched me just like being at school again 🤣🤣 4y
TheBookHippie So beautiful ... the week wore me out binge-ing some Netflix 🤣 4y
margreads A roasting sound so good about now! We aren't allowed to go more than 5km from our home 4y
Kimzey A lazy day so far, but have downloaded an audiobook and will tackle my housework - if I can pull myself away from Litsy! 😊 4y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Lazy day here. A walk, some reading, light cleaning, and now we're watching some baseball. 4y
Pageturner1 @andrew65
are these pictures you took? amazing! your day is way better in every way possible than mine just looking at those pics. weather was comfortable, warm here in kentucky. did a little shopping downtown in my city of bardstown.
4y
tracey38 Today spent time with my mom before her surgery on Thursday. Just got home. Haven't read yet today but will get some reading in tonight and a lot of tomorrow. 4y
gradcat Totally lazy day for me, 📖, watching 📺, and eating 🍽, with a cat 🐈 & a bottle of wine 🍷 🥱 4y
