I'm beginning to feel the same. Mad Scientist has just got into Pokemon cards, and has been sitting with me choosing a set for her birthday. My sticking point is that every set apparently has a rare card.

Ooops they are empty but rest assured they were very nice.
Hop rhizomes collected ready to plant.
Just stopped for a shifter before shopping and then a cycle to a late lunch.

I didn't realise they still do Pokemon cards. My boy collected them about about 20 years ago when it was all the rage, he had a rare card in his collection that all his friends were very envious of. I think he sold it for mega bucks
We have returned from the big shop. No alcohol, no chocolate, no processed meat. Plenty of veg and fruits. 
We've had enough of winter and cold and eating crap to make us feel better, we've decided it's spring and time go put the stews and pizzas away. Also we pledged Dr Phil that we will do our CLANGERS.

I will not be gardening today. I was out gardening for about four hours yesterday, with only one break for a hot drink. There were two very straggly ugly overgrown hebes. One had been gradually pruned to see if it grew from the bottom again, which it did.
The other one was bigger and even more unslightly. So I decided to dig it up. By gum, that was hard work, and brute force was used in conjunction with a large spade. I decided that I do not want to do that again in a couple of years' time, so I dugged out the other one as well. With a bare patch in the garden, I did some more dugging, and added compost, and then to make it look not so bare, I put in some divided-up clumps of daffodils which needed moving.
There was a sort of baby plantlet from one of the hebes, and this was replanted as well. It is the wrong time of year for that, but I have taken the chance on that. That digging episode was followed by more cutting down of old foliage, and sieving compost.
When we get some warmer weather, it will be ready for some more plants, probably ones from other congested areas in the garden, a Salvia Hotlips, nothing to do with Hotlips Houlihan, if you must know.

Yes, usually bikes left behind are some mass market bicycle shaped object that isn't worth the rust remover. Although you get the rare gem, every now and again, like this here.

Donning my detective's hat, if the 2nd photo is as soon as you sat down, how come both wine glasses are fuller than in the first?
