Cola

I drink Coke only very occasionally, but I had a little today - and it was perfect.

Relaxing with a Book

This was another long work week. It felt good to put my feet up when I got home today. I had a cup of tea and a snack and read another chapter of my book. It's really very good indeed and I am reading it very slowly as I don't want it to end.

Lazy Leisure

Being at work today was a drag. I would much rather have spend the whole day lying in the sun with my cat.

Cat v Printer

I watched this video again today - had to show my colleague that his customer sounds exactly like this cat. Because of my issues with office equipment I completely relate. Youtube says the video has been watched ten million times - I'm sure half of those are me. It always makes me laugh!

Herb

My friend Michele brings me fresh catnip every so often, for the cats. I can't grow it myself as Tom destroys the plants. He's a catnip fiend!

Recent gifts... they all smell delicious. And I will definitely be using one of them this evening. It's freezing cold again and I plan to take a hot bath to warm up.
