Things that are currently taking up brain space, a totally incomplete list:

How to feed the magpie with a broken leg, whilst keeping the other magpies off. The key is that the injured magpie takes a bit longer to gear up to fly away. So I judge my approach and back off as soon as the other has taken flight. I think ‘Long John Magpie’ is starting to realise it’s got a special protected status. The diet, by the way, is mealworms and soft suet, in a dish on the shed roof. And a dish of drinking water.

Dividing things into three, which is my new mini-obsession. Folding flannels, folding towels and sheets - I love getting the judgement just right. In the old days I’d create an LJ tag for it.
