What's everyone up to right now?

Trying a new flavor creamer in my morning coffee.

Wandered around online and wondering what good Microsoft rewards were and figured out I was able to cash some in. Managed to get $100.00 in gift cards added to my Amazon account. I'll take it!
Buying more audiobooks. Audible has a BOGO sale on select titles. I'm finding reading books preferable to listening, but on account of some bargains on audiobooks and audiobook subscriptions, I've been acquiring more audiobooks than Kindle books. I'll ride this gravy train until the gravy runs out.

I’ve been on 6 audio book a month plan (actually through 3 separate grand fathered plans for 2 books a month, $5 per title, any title) at Audible since about 2015. Remarkably I’ve mostly kept up with listening (although not necessarily with hearing ), at a rate of about 1 audiobook per week while commuting and the rest listened to on and off as opportunities arises. only about 10% of the books are mains unlistened or unfinished. A single 40 hour fiction tome may set me back a month in listening back log, but others can be skipped to interesting sections and be done in a day.

So, I have made the switch to Audible and books from the local library (unfortunately their selection of audiobooks is a bit limited). I have learned that the narrator can make or break my enjoyment.

Finally finished off the fence for the back garden (Her Ladyship was dropping not-so-subtle hints). Came out sweet as, though I say it as shouldn’t.

Watching baseball. I've been a slug lately. I was going to do housework yesterday, but lay in bed listening to football all evening instead.
