Meandering

      No Comments on Meandering

I decided to take a wee stroll through Mum’s garden this afternoon; it had been awhile since my last one, and it always brings me joy. I took quite a few pictures, but I especially liked this one. The tree in the front is actually just bare tree, but it almost looks like the buddleia behind it is part of… Read more »

Wrap

I’m onto the next stage of the sock, which… wrap and turn sole something. I’m just following the instructions and waiting for my brain to figure out what it’s done after it’s constructed. Bonus, I ended up redoing my nails today, so have a hint of the thermal goodness (with a bit more on Instagram). Haven’t been hugely productive today,… Read more »

Gusset

      No Comments on Gusset

We’re currently watching through Coupling for the nth time, so the fact I’m working on a gusset while watching the show… *mwah!* Today has been warmer again, which, rude. I know I know, August. Still. The rain is supposed to come back, so hopefully that’ll make it a smidge more pleasant. But eh, I’m pretty upfront on the fact that summer… Read more »

So Handsome, So Boy

      No Comments on So Handsome, So Boy

One of the awkward truths I had to accept when I first became a parent is that babytalk? It’s literal evolution shit that you cannot avoid for the life of you. Which means I was probably doing it to the cats before the babies… I definitely do now. Today’s subject line is one that I lay upon Batman’s brow, syrupy… Read more »

On a Stick

      No Comments on On a Stick

Smalls and I randomly got on the subject of food on a stick earlier; they were surprised to realise they had had food on a stick. Um, ice cream? But, bless ’em, they were thinking of like, a scoop of ice cream on a stick rather than an ice lolly. It was cute. But also, I’m amused how this pattern… Read more »

Caught in the Act

And lo, a cat has been spotted using the fountain — at a time that I was able to sneak a picture. Poison has used it a few times prior, but I wasn’t able to get my phone out fast enough. Y’all know how she is — she’s a camera hog when she wants to be; hitting the fountain isn’t… Read more »

Better

Blah blah, why is clean hair so hard to acquire and keep, blah blah. Which is to say, it got a proper shampooing today and I’m happy about it. I again spend a few moments wondering if I should re-red, or just continuing enjoying the silver. The latter wins, obviously — it’s the path of least resistance. Today has been… Read more »

Caturday

((oh hey, ignore the catnip on the floor xD)) We needed to buy some new litter boxes, so Z looked around the site and spotted this adorable little cat drinking fountain. Batman still isn’t completely sure about it, but Poison immediately had a drink on her first walk-past. We haven’t decided where its permanent location is going to be quite… Read more »
