One day soon, my desk, art supplies, crafting supplies and cross stitch/sewing supplies will /actually/ be organised.

Series 2 of Channel 5's All Creatures started airing this week. Glad it's back, but I can't help but feel that some of the drama and conflict between James and the Aldersons is forced... It's not like that in the books, and as the books are semi autobiographical, I feel that the Channel 5 series doesn't represent it close enough. It's not as respectful as it could be towards the real people and their families that

depicted. I don't think that it will ever beat the books, or the BBC's series.

I don't want to go on holiday this year. Too stressful in regards to traveling, especially on a train. Quite honestly, the last time I went near a train, I was ill for a month afterwards, so why would I want to go? There's too many people carrying too much disease.

The BBC now have Climate change under it's own news category on their site. Thing is, it's been too little, too late to combat climate change. I acknowledged this in 2018, when we had the 'Beast from the East' snow storm and the summer long heat wave we had that summer. Not sure what can be done now to prevent it from getting out of control as no country took it seriously enough in the 80's and 90's to do something

about it. There was a lot of protesting and placard waving, but that leads to nothing if governments don't put regulations in place to do something about it and companies don't voluntarily do something BEFORE governments start to actively regulate. Short term profit and short term GDP gains have always been their main priority.

Made the mistake of going to town yesterday. Mistake in that it the place was full of idiots not taking covid seriously. Although I have missed shopping and going to places, I have not missed encountering idiots.

Ordering some more items from Hobby Craft and I am perplexed as to why crafters bother with cricut products because they are so expensive. Does the crafting hobby have a set of Hyacinth Buckets who just buy a ton of expensive things just to show people that they've got it?

What I will do soon is share some of the more interesting art and craft youtube channels that I have come across. They are so inspiring (but be warned - they may make you want to buy more supplies.) I will only be sharing the ones which I think encourage people to use their stash, or have ideas for recycling waste, & show their viewers that they actually use their supplies, & ones which show you how to make things,

art tutorials, etc, rather than just endless 'what I bought' videos. I don't have the technical knowledge (or confidence) to make my own videos, would like to share ones which I've found useful.

There is also a site called Skillshare which seems to be good at encouraging people to try new things but that requires a subscription. These don't, so they might be more helpful to those who can't afford to sign up to subscription sites.

I have found a lot of art supplies that I would like to try over the next few months. It is nice to get back into a creative spot with it - it had waned when we lost Jaffa and I didn't feel like doing it for a very long time.
