A cloudy salmon pink sky over a silhouetted bare-branched tree and houses

📷 I got up earlier than usual, just in time to see the pastel clouds before sunrise. Very nice.

I have been really enjoying processing photos this morning in Lightroom, because they hardly need it.

So, next I’m going to check out the in-camera processing Thing whilst tethered to my computer, and try to match what I did.

“Straight out of camera” is going to have new meaning for me now I think.

Spring is here in the UK. It’s been beautiful.

Today was the first day this year I didn’t turn the heating on when I woke up. I’ve had all the windows open. And I’m itching to get out into the fresh air.

Also. I have switched the snow off on my blog. If I could change it to blossoms falling I would.

Micro.blog is being weird today. Sending replies to the wrong person on Mastodon. 🤷‍♀️. Sorry

Not right (not right (not right now)))

FYI. Micro.blog summaries (in the timeline) break when they contain quotation marks.

A Thermos flask with a shiny lid is situated on a piece of wood. A distorted reflection of some fingers can be seen. The image is high contrast black and white.

Sunset in the park this evening.. 📹

I’m attempting to post a video that’s hosted elsewhere. Let’s see if it works. 🤞

Insert grumpy post about Micro.blog here.

A screenshot reading- Summary- Frustration with Micro.blog arises from high friction and a lack of clear documentation and reliability.

Honestly I don’t have the heart for it. I’m trying to be patient. But the level of friction is very high.

I just want things to work. I don’t want to have to repeatedly report bugs to get them to work. And I want there to be clear and unambiguous documentation and information available.

I hope the billionaires are doing ok today

I really need to see the 2017 season of Twin Peaks. And the 2014 Twin Peaks film too.

I might as well watch the whole thing again.

Fortnite OG is quiet and I like that 🎮 youtu.be/5Lf_iFbth…

I’ve been listening to The B52’s tonight. It’s been awesome. I’m surprised how many of these I know 🎵 music.apple.com/gb/playli…

I had a great time today while on a photo walk, discovering a new area of my village I never knew existed.


2025-03-20 8:11 am

Apple support are calling me at when o’clock today?

Support agent said 08:30. Email says 08:30 BST.

We are still on GMT.

So maybe they’ll call me an hour early. 🤷‍♀️

Oof. That was a very intense experience of someone being very forceful with my experience. Like..

When someone is telling you it is your fault whilst telling you it’s not your fault.

I feel very yucky now. I need to go scream into the void.

We are having a mini heat-wave here in Manchester. I have been writing in my local Costa Coffee this morning and now I’m soaking up the atmosphere and birdsong in the park. 📹↑HQ


2025-03-20 3:27 pm

It’s duvet hour for a mental self-care reset and some rest. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.


2025-03-20 10:48 pm

I have a post scheduled for 9:10pm. It’s now 9:46pm and it hasn’t gone live yet.

is there a problem with Micro.blog tonight?


2025-03-20 11:11 pm

Creating has been equally tiring and restorative today. I had to push myself to get this out of the door but it was definitely worth the effort.

I’ve been using Craft app to build out some private behind-the-scenes pages for subscribers. And it’s working really well for me.


2025-03-22 12:18 am

I spent some nice time with my parents today. And I have the next few days booked with various family members including a birthday celebration. Very nice 😊


2025-03-24 12:52 am

I’ve been playing the beginning levels of Split Fiction with my kid. 🎮 It’s pretty good. There have been some hilarious moments.

We really loved A Way Out and It Takes Two.

A Way Out has a fantastic story tho and is my favourite so far although it looks a little dated now.


2025-03-25 11:34 am

There’s a young magpie squeaking outside my window. It’s so cute 🐦


2025-03-25 11:39 am

I’ve been visiting and meeting family in various places for four days straight. It’s been really really nice.

Now I am socially wiped out and having a very quiet day today. I have zero plans, nothing on my schedule and I’m ignoring my to do list.


2025-03-25 11:41 am

We have begun planning a family holiday for this summer. It’s my first trip away since before the 2020 situation.

We just need to fine tune out dates and then we can look for accommodation.


2025-03-27 9:37 am

I’ve been drifting away from social media again. Not deliberately but more in a way that I didn’t notice. I think this is a really good thing. I’m looking after myself without it having to be something I’m giving up or denying myself, no matter how healthy the intention. It’s not forced.


2025-03-27 9:40 am

Yesterday I had my first New Camera Meltdown. Somehow some settings got changed and I found myself getting lost in menus when I was standing in front of a scene I wanted to shoot. Ugh. It was beyond frustrating. I need to learn this camera’s systems.


2025-03-27 4:10 pm

I forgot how persistent fresh turmeric can be. Totally worth it tho


2025-03-29 10:52 am

With any luck, I am spending the day with my oldest son. Yippee. He’s awesome.


2025-03-30 9:26 am

I’ve been thinking about clearing off the internet. Shutting everything down. 99.999% sure I won’t. But it’s on my mind. Not enjoying this any more.


2025-03-30 12:09 pm

I got really caught out by the clocks changing last night. I went to bed at 02:30 BST wondering where all the time had gone. I didn’t realise till this morning.

Now I feel pretty disorientated. And I missed half the day already.


2025-03-31 12:01 am

My eldest came to visit today. An excellent opportunity to spoil him with some good food, and catch up on a bunch of Babylon 5 episodes. I don’t see him very often these days and I miss him (his brother too of course). So it’s been a real treat for me.
