OYSTERHOOD is reclusiveness or solitude, or an overwhelming desire to stay at home.

Bosch Binge continues. I finally have some headspace to indulge in leisure reading again. Today, early in the morning in bed and then late afternoon on my love’s couch.

In between, I dealt with tax returns and other admin and some housework. My love cooked a delicious dinner for us. In view of the rising infection numbers, we have cancelled all indoor socialising with friends for the time being. The recent developments are very worrying.

Thank goodness I can read properly again – it is the nicest form of escapism. Although it says a lot about our present reality that the inside of a crime novel feels like the safest place in the world …

Be kind. Wear a mask. Support local.
