Another week has sped by somehow. Capitalism once again trapped me in its ancient jaws and I was forced to work for a living. I was feeling out of sorts on Thursday, so took a sick day, and let Son of Mine take a day as well. We both tucked up in the living room and watched The King's Speech, a movie I have not watched in many years. 

I went to my friend's place as usual last night, for cross-stitching and reality TV watching. We're currently watching Survivor: Australia vs the World, and the Celebrity Traitors UK. I love the Traitors, it's my favourite show.

I'm working on a Stormtrooper cross-stitch kit that's destined to be a Christmas present for Son of Mine, and also have a couple of older WIPs on the go.

We went to the library today, and I borrowed books but they're all the way across the room and I cannot remember any of the titles. I also rented the Jodie Foster season of True Detective as I've been wanting to watch that for a while.

Son of Mine and I watched A Knight's Tale this afternoon. I found a copy of it in one of the local Op shops - I go quite frequently and one of the things I do is scour the DVDs and books. Also the clothes - I've found some nice cardigans, a very nice work skirt - and a formal outfit that I wore to the aforementioned (in a previous post) work event.

Anyway.

I finished In Memoriam by Alice Winn last week. It's very good, but can be hard to get through as the bulk of the book is set in the trenches of World War 1. I'm still reading The Royal Wardrobe by Rosie Harte, and the Wolves of the Calla by Stephen King. I also started The Eye of Ra by Michael Asher, which I randomly found on a bookshelf when I was moving things around. I think I bought it at either an Op shop or the yearly Rotary sale, but I really don't remember.

Son, friend of mine and I went to a book sale at a small country school a few weeks ago, and I still have the books I bought from there in a bag as I have absolutely nowhere to put them. As Terry Pratchett apparently said, "If you have enough book space, I don't want to talk to you." He'd be loving my house at the moment!!

How about you? How's your week? What are you reading?
