Still hoping one day for someone who looks at me the way Maggie and her hot water bottle look at each other 😍🐈‍⬛🦙

Crisis averted. Hopefully! I think I've resolved the pesky dropped stitch and have now finished this bed jacket for my son's gf, made using a vintage pattern. I've made a few scarves, hats and some fingerless gloves before but never "proper" clothing, so this was something fun and new to try 🧶

Seeing as you all claim to love birds now, have this one I took in 2016 in my back garden:

Appalling weather at the Morrisons

I've just found a dropped stitch when I was *this* close 🤏🏻 to not having made any mistakes this time 😭🧶 I guess it's lucky I noticed it now at least, rather than it unravel after I've given it to the recipient! 😳

I called out to Maggie that I was coming to steal some cuddles and this is how I found her when I opened the curtain she was sitting behind. "Yeah, good luck trying to steal *my* cuddles you strange human..." 🗯️🐈‍⬛

Happy New Year lovely people. I've a couple of DMs but don't have access to them currently, so can't see who sent them. It can only be a handful of people who have previously messaged as my DMs are closed, so as I don't know who it is, I'm sending warmest wishes to about 5 of you especially! 😄

I think it's because I just can't actually really pronounce the words, and I have tried a fair few times to read this aloud now! So if anyone wants to have a go and share their efforts, that could be fun :)

One of my sisters got me this gorgeous book for my birthday and I was so excited to start reading it in the new year. However, I then read yesterday's poem and I am now inexplicably furious with it! (Sorry Edwin Morgan!)

Hullo, whatcha doin’?

Hallo @qqzm.bsky.social. Happy birthday, lovely human 🥳 I hope you've had a fab day with at least one slice of cake so far x

The new song will be playing today btw at 11.25am, the original post was from yesterday 🎶 To paraphrase: Sometimes I sit and wait, and sometimes I just sit... :)

Courtney Barnett has got a new song coming tomorrow, Stay in Your Lane, which will premiere on Lauren Laverne's BBCR6 at 11.25. Here's the very first article to have broken the news that she had new music on the way, from way back in June 😉 faroutmagazine.co.uk/stay-in-your...

Our local free magazine is full of substandard sounding superheroes.

Happy #CaturdayEve and Happy Penultimate Summer Weekend! See you next week! 🐈‍⬛ (Illustration by Zach Montoya)

I think £2 million and a prolonged period of proper rest and maybe a nice private tropical island will fix me...

Gute Nacht ⭐

Cat in the Summer Meadow by Bruno Liljefors (Swedish, 1860 - 1939). This was painted in 1920.

I just planted these flowers…

Good morning. Garden visitors. #notmycat #notmyfoxeither

Going into the 5th day of my right eye constantly twitching now and it feels like I'm looking at the world through a zoetrope.

'Good morning! It was chilly here last night so I came indoors to sleep! I like to sleep among all the books so I can absorb all the knowledge and become a wise cat!' #cat #cats #catsofbluesky #skycats #catsky #catlovers #tuxedocat #photography

Evergreen mood ✨ Good morning everyone, sending love and hoping you can all have as wonderful a Wednesday as is possible for you 💚🧡💙 [Illustration by sunlightafterdark on Instagram]

Mister Peaches being cute with his paws 🖤

Is anyone from #Norwich who can suggest somewhere I can have lunch with my parents Saturday week in the centre, we went to a random chip shop last time but it wasn't great, so instead of a panic when we arrive I'd rather have some ideas up my sleeves. Probably prefer cafes/smaller places.

There are wintry/Christmas bits in the shops already. Isn't that exciting! 🎄☃️🤭 [Please don't block me. Please don't block me!]

I watched the film "Capote" the other evening and then I watched some interviews with Truman Capote. Since then my inner monologue/voice got stuck in the style of Truman Capote but I was relieved to find that this thankfully did not extend to my speaking voice when I next spoke with someone :)

Anyway, me and my pals are just at the cinema now, so have a lovely afternoon x

I just ran for a bus. I never run. I hope I'll be ok

breaks my heart every time I hear it "you know that old trees just grow stronger and rivers grow wilder every day old people just grow lonesome waiting for someone to say 'hello in there, hello'" www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVhA...

There they are now, all the lads.

Photo from my housesitter taken while she read over my memo explaining that the cats would be far too shy to come out for at least 24 hours

"So how do we play with this thing then...? Ah, perfect, got it!" 🗯️🐈‍⬛❤️🥳

I'm getting quite bored now of never winning the lottery. Back to work I go, hey ho 😝

In Welsh lore black cats bring good fortune to a house. One Welsh rhyme emphasizes this: "A black cat, I've heard it said, Can charm all ill away, And keep the house wherein she dwells From fever's deadly sway". Art my own. #BlackCatAppreciationDay #Folklore #Cats #OriginalArt

Just popping in the portal for a bit, anyone want owt?

"In 2015, when the song came out, 197 countries signed the Paris Agreement at the end of COP21... We’re now ten years on from the treaty, and not a single one of the 197 countries is on target to keep their promises, and, in fact, global emissions have risen since 2015" 😢

A late #Caturday entry. #catsofbluesky #catsky

Just in case you haven't yet seen a squirrel enjoying a custard cream this morning 🐿️🦊

She comes by everyday and patiently awaits some monkey nuts 🙂

Work are scouting around seeing if anyone wants extra hours today, and on the one hand, that'd be handy to help keep Maggie in the manner to which she has become accustomed, but on the other we are only halfway through Garfield and still have The Lion King to watch, too, soooo...

Oh, forgot to show you, I knitted Maggie a little personalised placemat to keep her blankets less mucky as she likes to sit on them on the windowsill for her meals, so she can enjoy the garden view whilst eating 🐈‍⬛❤️
