I have finished reading all my Musketeer dragon stories. I have woe. The writer is pretty prolific and is still posting more, which is great, but I'd become used to having loads right there at my fingertips, and in fact, ploughed through 20 stories over 10k each in the last week.

Milo has been back at the vets today.

A couple of days after his antibiotics finished he was pulling his head back again and seemed lethargic, so I made him an appointment. It actually wasn't that bad, for his age he's in good health but Sarah the vet thinks it may be actually dental issues causing the problems. She said he can stay on more antibiotics for up to a month but if he's lost weight again after that and nothing has changed in terms of his discomfort he'll probably need teeth extracting, which of course means more money. So, fingers crossed the antibiotics he's got will do the trick. I did write her a letter to leave with his carrier asking if they would give the first antibiotic if needed as he's so bad at tablets. They did and said he was really tablet avoidant, so at least it's not just us he acts up for.

Otherwise, it was a beautiful day yesterday, in the high 20s, so I was out painting the fence. Half of it is now a lovely reddish cedar colour, but I did stop once it was midday as that's when the sun hits our garden full force and I wasn't daft enough to be out painting in the full glare of the sun. It was always my plan to stop then, so I started early in the morning. Though, what I should have done was do the outside first. Our gate opens onto the path which is only a foot across and then there's a metal fence before the bank down to the dual carriageway, so to maintain social distancing anytime someone walked past I had to go back in the garden and stop painting. Plus, I have to admit, I would have got more done if I hadn't had a natter to so many people from the estate passing by, but I haven't seen many of them for a while so it was nice to see how they were doing.

In the last week, we've finished watching The Good Doctor, Chicago Fire and Chicago Med. I thought the last two had weird endings before realising that filming had been stopped due to coronavirus so they'd obviously had to end the seasons early. Our next planned binge-watch catch up will be Criminal Minds, while on my own I'm catching up with Lucifer and Agents of Shield.

But, in things that are upcoming, new Queer Eye soon, and this self made video for the announcement of Umbrella Academy season two is fabulous. I especially like the toy sheep stabbing scene and I think they've done a great job of coping the official scene, though, with the addition of Ben and Five of course. As an aside, one thing I've liked about this lockdown is seeing people's houses, it indulges my nosy side nicely.
