A is for Architecture.... A-Z Challenge 2017

My theme for the 2017 challenge is waffling on about random words!

That might not seem like a theme but if you read on you’ll discover it’s not quite as random as it sounds.  The words were generated using a word generator (https://randomwordgenerator.com/) and I opted for 4 words each day.  I might focus on one or try and incorporate them all into the post.

Choosing the words this way has given me a challenge and a common thread to my posts but it has also allowed me to be myself and just waffle!  It’s what I’m good at. (Don’t worry, I’m aiming for around 500 words per post so  hopefully you won’t get stuck here for too long 😉 )

And the words for today are….

Architecture

Addiction

Admission and

Age

Well I’m certainly no expert on architecture.  I can’t tell my Greeks from Romans or even my Victorians from Edwardians although I do know our house is Victorian.  Which means it’s old and constantly needing tender loving care.  Not that it gets much TLC when hubby has an addiction to his guitar.  Well he seems to be permanently attached to it. 

I find puzzles and games addictive.  Give me a Sudoku, a logic challenge or heaven forbid Candy Crush and I can quite happily while away a few hours.

Now there’s an admission for you.  Must be something to do with my age!

Fortunately, it’s currently Lent as I’m preparing these posts and I’ve removed all the time wasting games such as Candy Crush etc. from my iPad and phone.  It’s taken a bit of getting used to but it has given me more time for other things.     

I must admit my finger hovered over the delete button for a while but it was a good feeling knowing that those little icons would not be there to distract me from more important things like blogging and social media.  (I hope you weren’t expecting me to say things like decorating or cleaning there!)  

I know of several friends who remove themselves from Facebook for Lent but I couldn’t face going that far!  Although I was tempted to ditch Twitter as I’ve never really got the hang of it.  Limiting yourself to only 140 characters doesn’t sit well with me.  Why use one word when a sentence could be so much better?  Yes I’m one of those annoying people who doesn’t do text speak and my e-mails still look like letters.  I’m a fan of “Grammarly” and I can be pedantic but mostly I’m just full of waffle.

Do you have an addiction or admission you’d like to share?
