I'm in the middle of writing a response to the picture prompts I asked for a few challenges ago, so I'll say this is half done at this point. So I guess it's a case of, watch this space.

I've been watching a lot and reading a lot lately. I've seen the first two episodes of Wandavision and enjoyed them. Yesterday I started to watch Bridgerton and am two episodes in so far. That is one pretty show with some excellent scenery and beautiful outfits for both the men and women. It's also engaging so I'm looking forward to watching more.

I read a Downton Abbey fic yesterday which I really enjoyed. Not Much of an Everyone (To Get On With) by Jolie_Black. I assume I got it from someone on here as I don't look for Downton stuff myself, so thank you, unremembered rec person, I really enjoyed your rec.

I still have the really long Thomas centric Downton story as recced by a couple of people tabbed. I'm looking forward to reading but need the uninterrupted time to do so.

It was snowing when I went to bed last night. The big fat flakes that look beautiful and picturesque and everything was covered quickly. By the time I woke up, it was raining so heavily all that was left was some slush on top of the greenhouse.

Good news, both my MiL and FiL have had their first COVID vaccination. A nurse came to the house to give my Mil's hers, while my FiL went to a walk-in clinic. He's fine but my MiL is feeling a bit ropey, but hopefully that won't last long.

that was possibly my rec as I did rec it a while back. it's quite good! and if/when you get time to read the other Downton story, I hope you enjoy it as much

your weather sounds just perfect - enjoy the beautiful falling snow, then not have to worry about navigating in it :)

It probably was you then, so I'll thank you here. Thank you! I really did enjoy it. I'm sure I'll love the long one too but at nearly 527k in total, it's not one I can start when I'm busy.

That's very true. I did enjoy watching the snow come down and the world turn white. But then could easily walk the next day. So as you say, win-win.

Oh nice!

I’ve heard of Bridgestone but not watched it

That sounds exactly like how the weather was here. Boo at the snow not staying

Oh that is good news!

I'm hoping to get the response done today. We'll see what happens.

No, I wouldn't have thought Bridgestone would be your thing unless you've got a secret love of regency period drama.

The snow was gorgeous! Really fat flakes fluttering down and everywhere covered in minutes. But back the rain came.

It was excellent news :D

Too bad the pretty snow didn't last. But I kind of envy you your rain. I'm hoping we get some here next week.

And I'm so glad the first round of vaccinations is done! That's great they were able to make a house call to ease the logistics.

I'd gladly share some rain, it's been almost constant for a few days now. Which is why that snow amazed me, it seemed to come out of nowhere, and then apparently went just as fast.

I was thrilled a nurse came to the house. It was great service and has eased my mind in terms of all my extra vulnerable loved one having had the first jab now.

Good news about your in-laws! And even better news about the house-calling nurse. Talk about convenience!

Winter slush -- blerg. Nature's frowny face emoji.

I was very impressed the nurse came to the house. It was such great service, and one I didn't expect.

Winter slush is the worst!

It's so sad when you go to bed to a beautiful snowfall but wake up to pouring rain :-(

The snow looked so beautiful. It's not often we get the fat fluffy kind of flakes. It was a shame to see it gone completely by the next morning.
