Scotland has been given its first Red Alert for the weather ever! Although a small part of me loved that as a Trekkie I am now so over the snow.

I think the only ones around where I live that do like the snow are kids or dogs, lol. All of the schools in Fife are cancelled, and it reminds me of when I wished for a snow day.

I don't know what it's like for my dreamwidth friends from other countries, but the snow is now almost knee deep in parts. This is the worst it's been for at least 27 years.

I guess that it gives me a chance to catchup on some shows or just Netflix and chill.

Snow Day!

I think the only one who enjoys the snow in my house is my Border, Collie Sami. She'll play out all day if I let her. Although it is helping me in my quest to lose weight as since I can't drive (due to the roads being terrible here and that the council is bad at getting the roads cleared and gritted) I've been walking a lot more. The downside is that my parents live up the top of a hill and I live in the town centre so to visit them I've got a bit of a climb, lol.

Ordered Jurassic World for my 2ds as I've finished Indiana Jones and moved onto Harry Potter (currently, all Lego games as I've got a slight obsession, lol.)

Call the Midwife finally starts on Sunday so that's something to look forward too and thanks to Netflix we get Star Trek Discovery on Monday.

My parents have reverted to their childhood as both are currently building Lego projects (Mum is building the Disney Castle from the Magic Kingdom, and Dad is working on the Kwik E Mart from the Simpsons). I've joked with my sister that theirs will be the first divorce in history to have Lego as their reason for separating.

Also, Space Swap is accepting Nominations from the end of the month so that might be my first fanfic challenge of the year.

Sami

My poor dog Sami has cut her paw a little, luckily it's just a scrape, but I'm putting Anti-Bacterial spray on it just in case. So she is currently being spoilt rotten and is enjoying sleeping in my room instead of her bed downstairs so that I can keep an eye on her. Doesn't seem to be bothering her much so hopefully within a week it will have healed.

Started my Christmas shopping (sort of) as I'm planning a couple of small cross stitch projects for my Aunt and Gran. I typically make them a Christmas Card or a bookmark but not decided on a pattern yet.

We're back to the lovely Scottish weather pattern of pouring rain, lol. I'm thankful in some ways as it means it's not as muggy at night.

About halfway through of Scorpion season 2 (up to episode 12) which is funny as tonight I will be watching a Christmas episode in July, lol.

Also heard about Stargate turning 20 - can't believe that it's been that many years already. Wish it was still being recorded but heard we might be getting a new series Stargate Origins so that might be worth a watch.

Almost at the end of season 1 of Scorpion (episode 19) and loving it! I'm glad to hear season 4 starts in September as It'll give me time to catch up, hopefully, lol.

About to start work on my story for Rare Pairs Exchange, thankfully not due until August, so gives me time to get to it.

My boyfriends birthday is at the end of this month so thinking about what present to give him, luckily he's into Star Wars, Star Trek, etc. so it's relatively easy to figure out what to get him.

Wish it was better weather here though, Scottish weather at it's best. It's also quite muggy so hard to get to sleep, but since it's raining today, I hope it'll clear the air a bit.

Signed up for GenExchange so hope to be busy until the TV shows start back up September/October time.

Also hoping to get my aunt out for a couple of day trips when the weather is nicer, probably a drive round the coast or visit a National Trust property (it helps that I'm a member so don't have to pay, lol).

As you can tell from the subject heading, we had a thunderstorm on the east coast of Scotland. I'm normally okay with them, but my dog Sami is not quite so brave. She hid in the bathroom until it was over, the poor thing so tonight she is getting ham in her dinner as a treat.

At least it's not so muggy now so I might catch up on my sleep, lol.

Don't you hate it when you get a certain song stuck in your head, totally my fault as I was watching the Lion King earlier so now I've got Hakuna Matata running through my head, lol?

Need to get started on my assignment for Not For Prime Time Exchange, but got most of it planned out so hopefully will start writing tomorrow.
