I did a little bit of weeding first thing this morning, but that was it. Haven't been feeling great so I've mostly been editing fanfic, doing jigsaws, and sorting computer files. Hoping to get an early night tonight.

Hope you feel better tomorrow - the weeds will wait for you!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks, I hope so. The weeds will keep on growing with all the rain we had today.

[wiseheart]

Get better, soon!

[badly_knitted]

Thank you, I'll do my best.

The never ending (weeding) story. A quiet day sounds good.

[badly_knitted]

Weeding is by definition never ending. There's always another dozen coming up somewhere.

I needed time to reflect over the sad news anyway. It'll be strange having a king.

I understand he's not going to change his name, I think that's best. And I have always liked the name Charles.

It's just... King Charles is a kind of Spaniel, which makes it feel a bit weird. We'll adjust, but there has been a Queen on the throne since before I was born. It's hard to get my head around.

[wiseheart]

Errr... a Spaniel? I'm not sure I understand.
But the Queen was certainly one of a kind - everyone would have a hard time to follow her.

There's a breed of dog called the King Charles Spaniel, and that's where my brain goes every time someone mentions King Charles. It's very confusing.

She certainly was, an inspiration to all.
