Shamelessly stole. Because it’s true.

The humans settle upright on the sofa. So Tiny Cat does too.

I thought she was a black and white cat. Turns out she’s a tabby!

Tiny Cat has the right idea. Who was I kidding that this feed would be high brow?

Not for the first time I’ve lost all sensibility at the moment one of my offspring graduates. Last time I didn’t get a photo at all so I suppose this is an improvement.

Fish fingers in a brioche bun with a glass of rose Prosecco. The perfect end to a failed day off πŸ˜‚ I’ll try again tomorrow πŸ₯‚

My beautiful Tiny Cat has great big turkey back legs. I don’t have the heart to tell her.

I miss The Little Cat. I’m also thinking through how to start a gentle micro revolution based on acts of love and kindness. Fancy a conversation?

Late to the chat but, it’s hinged in two places and there is a tradition of slamming it shut followed by the entire congregation running out of the church, at the Maundy Thursday service. It’s very special πŸ₯°

They are called Frank and Nansi. But Nansi tends to be called The Tiny Cat. And you’re right - they both have several names depending on the situation!

Well done! That deserves an extra day off in the infinite days of January πŸ₯°

Two cats are sat on a chair. The larger cat at the back is a long haired tabby and the smaller kitten is black and white with a smudgy nose. Both look cute.

Is it me or are the January weeks longer than other weeks in the year? Cat picture just for cuteness.

Please don’t encourage him. Getting up for his first shot of caffeine is how I get my cup of tea made for me πŸ˜‚

Today is a precious, set aside day, to study. So far I have plumped this cushion, fed treats, deleted all the extra letters her footprints have put into my second draft, and gazed adoringly. It’s going really well.

You must have him. He can be a social media friend to Nansi!

I’m really disturbed by what is hanging off the back of that chair.

I feel this pain. I’ve taken to banning them from a room and just getting on with it. They cope. Just. πŸ˜‚πŸŽ„πŸ₯³

Merry Christmas! Two more services and then a rest. But do you know? I’ll gladly do it all again and more next year. #loveruralministry #clergymaltclub

Lovely! I mentioned it a couple of days ago and it didn’t seem to excite people πŸ˜‚

Just checking in again, #clergymaltclub. Is it a thing here? It’s not good to drink alone πŸ˜‚πŸ₯‚

Oh no!! I have discovered that if I force my way in they’re quietly pleased. I don’t have the energy for the fight or the game playing πŸ˜‚ sorry to hear you have a relatable situation :(

Yesterday the olds relocated to be closer to us. However, they were utterly miffed that I reorganised my diary to go and help today when the things got a bit stressy. Apparently they want to be closer but not actually see us. Silly me πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ
