Forty-Nine

Morning walk
Daffodils in bloom
Plant Nerd socks from my work BFF
20 minutes’ work over my lunch break with a cordless reciprocating saw and a pruning saw
Glow-in-the-dark petunias will soon be mine, thanks to Aaron and Connor
The best way to end the day is by kicking ass

Not pictured: the accurate representation of my Hobonichi Techo that Connor drew on my birthday card; the medium Colby and chicken from Halftime Pizza that was SO NOT A MEDIUM WTF that will be feeding us for the foreseeable future; and the awesome chocolate fudge brownie ice cream cake that will also be feeding us for the foreseeable future.

This was a good day.

Fur Shawl Selfie

Me and my kitty shawl earlier this week.

Before adopting Baxter, I’d never had a cat that would clamber up onto my shoulders. Come to think of it, none of my cats were really into being held or snuggled in general. Some were more of lap cats than others, and some were more tree-dwellers than bush-dwellers for sure, but Baxter is the first to combine his love of heights with his love of snuggles.
