Seeking ideas - what should I do with my tunnocks tea cake fancy dress now? Cushion? Something else?

Ooof didnโ€™t expect first university assignments results day to bring up so many emotions.

All the fear of judgment and manufactured competitiveness of formal education triggers hit me at once.

Iโ€™m ok, results were ok, but wowee I was not expecting today to be so emotional.

A kitten has climbed up inside my jumper and stuck his head out of the neck hole and looked directly at camera. He has the distinctively Devon Rex large ears. He is mostly ginger, although his face is split down the middle half ginger and half white
