My partner is a tele watching kind of person. I'm not a tele watching kind of person. But I've found a compromise - if I can knit Christmas presents (scarves, I only do straight lines) during his quiz shows then it works ok for me. If he's watching - I say watching, sometimes it's more background - a programme with a storyline I've learned it's best if I go and read upstairs as otherwise I'm unwillingly sucked into the narrative when he's not necessarily watching anyway. My aging eyes are not so good now at shifting between the screen and the knitting, so I can only knit if I'm not actually wanting to view what's on.
Today's a full on day of church (Fijian lunch after the Harvest service) then work over Manchester way, so I'm pleased to have managed lots of relaxing yesterday. Book group book in the bath, film cuddled up on the sofa in the evening, plus a lovely stint of volunteering in the morning. I do like it when I achieve balance!
