Current cat status: going for a snack and lounging on the blue blanket.

Excited for a Carnegie diner (inspired by the deli, not same company) has opened in my building. I’ll have to try the cheesecake to see if it’s on par with the original.

Visiting the Rockefeller Center tree and admiring myself in baubles.

Icing or chocolate drizzle thingy?

Good morning.

Awake at 11.30pm *slaps thighs* right, time for cereal. (This is the best gif Bluesky had to offer)

Goodnight from Schmitten and from me.

Oscar thought about a roll and decided against it.

You know when her head flips over that she’s enjoying herself.

Stop 4 on day out: monster art. I’ve been meaning to see this for a couple of weeks, glad I did.

Stop 3: Chop Shop lo mein lunch. Rare for me to stop and eat while I’m out, I’m proud of myself.

Second stop of the day: art show of a friend whose work I’ve photographed for years, got a tee!

First stop on my day out: this very pretty coffee place I used to visit when I worked on 7th Ave nearby.

SNOW SPRINKLES in NYC (you can see them in front of the tree if you squint).

Woman on bus, with most seats empty: let me sit sideways right in front of you and look toward the back of the bus. Me: moves 5 rows away. Woman: Acts surprised. What’s up with people’s self awareness?

I was planning on walking to Chelsea in my wool coat and skimpy scarf. Went home again for wool jumper, scarf and puffy coat, now on the bus.

Today’s fit for my DAY OFF includes pigeon socks and jeans.

Temperatures have dropped considerably, so it’s radiator arm time.

Goodnight from Schmitten looking resentful, I haven’t given her treats yet

Oscar’s evening roll with bonus feets

Evening walk sightings: the empire State building, a steam pipe and a cool shadow.

Hello from my evening walk. Hat weather and possible snow flurries tomorrow!

Freshly washed warm blanket enjoyment.

Nice architectural things in a walk around Gramercy Park.

Good morning from Schmitten’s morning routine and Oscar keeping an eye on the humidifier.

Shoes, but something startled her.

Oscar’s finest.

💭 I see you have chicken…

Oscar’s happy I’m home too. A rare lap sit.

I think Schmitten’s glad I’m home. I am too.

My bottom third is damp. It was supposed to be light rain but is pissing down. 😖

I’m on the Do the Right Thing block in Brooklyn. 👋

Please enjoy Sundays socks.

She demanded I sit with her on the sofa after our morning walk

Good morning.

An Oscar roll, and if you wait long enough, another Oscar roll.

Art show! Purchases will be added to the replies.

Oscar’s paws are endlessly amazing too.

Well this is pretty amazing.

I’ve set up the humidifier we’ve had for YEARS but I’ve always been put off by the instructions for. It may help the kitties now the very dry heating is on.

A short guide to what the cats are up to:

Goodnight from Schmitten and I.

Oscar’s daily carpet time.

Shrimp wanter who once given shrimp, did not want it.

Shrimp & things lunch inspired by @missymollymol.bsky.social plus a few crisps from the UK: Oyster and vinegar. Subtle but delicious!

We’re waiting in for a paint inspection to see if our bathrooms ready to paint after a leak. She’s happy I’m having an extra sit-down with her.

Friday thoughts.

She was yelling at me right before this, but stopped as soon as I started filming.

Oscar’s turn for your Thursday night:

Popped into the Bryant Park Christmas market. Sampled No Chewing Allowed truffles = insanely good, and added this Meow Parlour pouch to my wishlist. Shopping season is here!
