shoes (2)

Since lockdown in March 2020 I started leaving my shoes outside my apartment door, because I didn’t want to bring Covid and other street ickyness into the house. And since there is only me and my downstairs neighbour here, and she never comes upstairs, I have kept on doing this. But now I have a flatmate again! And both of us have to take off our shoes before coming inside. So I have found this. It will fit snugly into a nook just outside the front door and looks like a perfect solution. The next thing will be to see if I manage to put it together (it’s being delivered this week)…

Question. Is it normal for you, where you live, to take off your shoes before entering someone’s home? It’s totally normal in Canada, not so much in Spain.

wordle

So I came across Wordle shortly after my birthday and thought… hey a word game! I found out about it when people I follow on Twitter started sharing their daily Wordle results and decided to investigate… and now I’m hooked. What I didn’t expect is how people on Twitter who don’t know what Wordle is have chosen to hate it simply based on people posting their results (which look like the image above, if you’re lucky, and without the WTF). What’s with that? If seeing a post with a few coloured squares in it sets someone off they can simply mute the word “wordle” and they’ll never see another one. But it seems they prefer to complain. Not me though! I’m having fun with it. It’s on a free app and a new puzzle comes up every 24 hours. Have you tried it?
