Cat of the Day doesn’t know what a freeze is, but she is glad her blankets came back indoors! She is sad the taps are no longer dripping, though!

#EcksteinsMonthOfMusic 🎼 #MusicChallenge 🎶 Day 1️⃣: A song from your early childhood. My siblings are much older than me so as a youngster I ended up listening to this kind of thing. I liked the story in the lyrics. youtu.be/__RF9j3Bs_Y?...

Got on the lathe today and made ickle bowls. #woodturning #bowlturning

I live in the country and work in the city. It always amazes me, the view from the office. There is a beauty in the reflections.

Lizard of the Day somehow got into the house! Cat was VERY interested, but I removed Lizard to the garage with the plants!

All hives were buzzing when I went to check on them this afternoon. This gentleman watched me very carefully. #beekeeping #whitetaildeer

#music #musicsky The dark denziens of the downstairs bit of Banshee in Manchester whilst being mostly goths didn't say no to a bit of industrial electronica. #goth #industrial youtu.be/m1cRGVaJF7Y?...

#musicsky #music a noisy one from a more angry time. youtu.be/IMIt5vRQuOE?...

It's definitely a cats and blankets kind of day. #cats

Hurrah, the Seattle Seahawks are going to see a superb owl. Which is nice. They did well in that throwy catchy game they play over here. Marvellous.

Gobblekins is Cat of the Day! I made her a new box inside another box stuffed with a soft donut bed & self-warming blankets. I also put a donut bed & self-warming blankets in her old box, but she seems to like the new one better! Hoping she doesn’t bolt out when the thunder starts. 🤞

Ok, it's definitely cold. This is frozen ice droplets on the tree. I don't think it'll get above 0c today. #winterstorm #texasweather

Winter plumage on the rare purple side fat pony. #smallholdinglife #texasweather

I'm thinking it's a bad time for our pear tree to blossom.🌱 #texasweather #winterstorm

There ain't no potatoes left in Kroger tonight. #bigfreeze #texasweather #panic

Where is Ted Cruz? Not in Texas! He's left Texas before the storm arrives. #whereisTedCruz

Introduce yourself with five concerts you’ve seen #musicsky 🎶 The Cure Siouxsie and the Banshees The Damned PJ Harvey CSS

Well, I didn't see that happening #mufc

I'm having one of those Mexican hot chocolate things.

This is not my cat. #cats

Lol...there has just been a sack fumble! Hahaha if only you knew what that means in English!

When i first heard about my move to Houston, I made a bladerunner joke...a new life in the off world colonies...but this morning it did look like a scene from it.

Right, I've set my alarm for early. Tomorrow is the first day in my new job. Houston downtown rush hour here i come!

What is going on with United? #mufc

Is that a feather? Doggo wants to know. #dogs

Found it. Rivers of London obscure biscuit jokes. #riversoflondon #viscount

I'm working on a lidded box from an old branch. #woodturning #boxturning

This is my tractor, but not my cat. #smallfarmlife #cats

Alright, I'm confused. What day is it?

@benaaronovitch.bsky.social I think Santa has made a tactical error. I ain't doing no chores when I'm rereading your entire back catalog before starting Stone and Sky. #books #riversoflondon

Goodbye emails sent. I like to think that I put some of me in them. It's always important to reference films and books to stop them being too dry and dusty but I do wonder if anyone will get the significance of the dolphin reference.

Tomorrow i hand in my laptop and wave to security one last time. I am gone! and then in exactly 2 weeks I'll wander into a new shiny building to meet new folks but probably the same old data issues. Sadly some things never change. #subsurfacedata #geology

This is a big ol' bug. #Insects

White elephant! I negotiated the answer to the ultimate question about life, the universe and everything. Shame, no one here knows what I'm talking about. #hitchhikers #meaningoflife

Ok, i survived the leaving thing. I didn't cry, but it was a close thing when my boss cried. I'm going miss those folk so much! The gave me chocolates and we had chocolate cake! There is definitely a theme there. Next year, new job, new commute, new friends.

Oh, I have my unofficial leaving gathering this afternoon. I am not looking forward to it. I'm not sure i want to be the center of attention at this point.

Its cold so doggo has her pajamas on. #dogs

Ok. My current work colleagues need to take a breath. I'm not the messiah of data management. I'm just careful. You will survive without me. It just means you have to be careful too. It can't be hard otherwise I wouldn't be able to do it myself!

I lived for 20 years in Scotland where -2c (28f) was an unremarkable air temperature. But here in Houston it's an epic tale of heat lamps at the wellhwad,wrapped pipes and drained lines. #texasweather

Coyotes wandering around the back of the barn #smallfarmlife #Coyotes

Ok, so the office is less untidy but the seeds have not been found. I'm going back into the barn. I may be some time. #gardening #thesearchforseeds 🌱

I'm leaving this contract job after 10 years. I've just been sent my kudos board. Lol. I don't recognize the person they describe! I am technically brilliant but I am also spiky, arrogant, thoughtless and prone to making unprofessional humorous comments. Such beautiful lies from the teams.
