Whoops....

Uh...wow. I really haven't posted here in forever, haven't I? I'm just having a lot of trouble keeping up with LJ lately. These days I mainly hang out on Discord. I also check my Twitter and Instagram regularly (same name as here), and I reblog a lot of things I like on Tumblr (also same name as here). I really miss hanging out on Lj though, so I'm

Congrats on the new apartment! I'm also exhausted all the time. I'm in an elementary school and all the schools around us have had Covid cases, but we've so far been fortunate. It's only a matter of time though.
I'm having the same problems with Discord as I had with Tumblr: I made myself an account but then have no idea what to do with it, lol.
Gotta admit, I had no idea who Aidan Turner was, so I googled him . . . and still don't recognise him from anything I've seen. What is your favourite work of his? I'm looking for new things to watch.

Thanks! We've had some covid cases at my work; a few colleagues and a few of the kids, but I seem to have been lucky for now. I'm crossing my fingers it will stay that way.

My favorite Aidan work... hmm.. I got to know him in the Hobbit (he plays Kili, one of the dwarfs), and then I looked around and found Being Human (UK), where he plays a vampire. It's a really good show and def. worth the watch. Not sure where you can see it though. He also plays Philip Lombart in the bbc tv adaptation of Agatha Christies 'And then there were none', and I really love him in there as well. :)

Now with added .gifs:

Don't forget Poldark!

[sillie82]

Oh yes! I haven't really seen it myself because it's not really my kind of show, but I know it was pretty popular. :)

Ooh, you have a whole room for arts and crafts now? I'm jealous.
I have not moved. I believe you have my Torrance address, right? And please PM your new one, so I can send you a card back.

[sillie82]

Hah, yes. It's a tiny room but it fits a desk and all my arts and crafts stuff so I'm pretty happy. :D

Cool. Yes, I have your address. Will PM you my new one. <3

Yay for drawing regularly and the art journal sounds like a really nice thing to do with your mom💗

And having a little garden and a "drawing room" sounds fantastic.

My address hasn't changed since last year. Please send me your new address!

[sillie82]

Yeah, the artjournal is super nice. With the prompts it just gives you the chance to create something else than what I usually go for. :)

It is. I hated moving, even though it wasn't far at all, but I'm so glad to be in this appartment now.

Cool. I'll PM you my new one. :)

Nice to see you around!

[sillie82]

Thanks! Now I need to try and keep it up. :')

Yes, Aidan Turner is very pretty! I can understand the obsession!

I work in an elementary school and am tired all the time, so I can sympathize! The COVID cases are going up here, so even though I’ve had the booster and the flue shot, I’ll probably catch something after Christmas. I keep scheming to figure out ways to take time off, but that never helps really, as you say.

I bury myself in my writing, and that seems to help a little. I play around on twitter and discord mainly, but a little bit of tumblr, too. I need to start Christmas shopping for my nieces and nephews! And getting cards out, of course.

Enjoy your new apartment!

[sillie82]

Yes, yes he is. Hee. :')

We've actually had a few cases at the daycare I work at (a few colleagues and also 1 or 2 of the kids), but for now I've been lucky. I have the window and door open at all times so fresh air can come in, and will get a booster shot at soon as it will be available over here. I actually never get a flu shot, but I'm starting to think I might have to get one, just to be sure.... I keep my fingers crossed things will go well for you and you won't get it.

Yeah, burrying yourself in things you like to do seems to be a good way of keeping distracted. :)

Thank you!
