Rambling Rosie's Retreat

I haven't read any Stephen King but I'm trying to get through The Wheel of Time. I just don't have any capacity for reading much, and I know a chapter a day will get it done, but I miss the days I'd devour a book in a day.

I hope you're feeling better after a sleep Rosie 🫂

Oh that looks interesting. I've fallen behind in different shows and series but I just had a quick google on it and it looks like something I would like. Have you watched the series at all?

I've been the same for years. I miss getting so absorbed in a book that I can lose a day.

I am thanks Honey 😊
 
Congratulations on a wonderful thread you gorgeous girl you 😍☺️😘
Do we curl up in the corner in our PJs and a cup of tea? I’m keen to hear about all your fabulous book recommendations.
My most recent fave has been ‘I am Pilgrim’ - powerful
Yes bean bags, arm chairs... Whatever you need to feel comfy here.
I don't know that one. What's it about?

I'm hoping this will just be an easy going chilled space to talk about all sorts of things 🥰

No I haven't watched it. From the trailer it's deviated from the books quite a bit, so I don't wanna get confused! I'm about half way through the series, so it'll be a while before I watch the show.

Ah that makes sense. How many books are in the series?
 
Well obviously because then the joke wouldn't work 😂
It took this American friend of yours a moment to remember the pronunciation you use and figure out the joke. 🤦‍♀️

Me, too! One of the young humans in my life reads like that. Got to the end of The Hunger Games yesterday evening, couldn't borrow the second book digitally from the library and messaged me in frustration. We had a copy here, and I offered to lend it ... they were walking in the door seven minutes later. 🤣

you're taking your time
She's taking a Wheel long Time. 🙊

Oh I love The Hunger Games. Excellent choice 😊
 
Hope everyone is having a good day.

I've spent most of mine catching Pokemon while my kid was at a summer club. Got to be honest, I can’t remember any of the names other than a handful of the originals but it's still satisfying to catch a new one.

Home now. This introvert needs to recharge ready for the same thing tomorrow.
 
Yeah it was hot and wet - great if you're with a woman, but not if you're in the jungle (to quote Good Morning Vietnam)

I got soaked right down to the skin.
 
It's only mild in Manchester, but the physical nature of my job gets me overheated. Too hot for my coat, to rainy not to wear it.
