I’m enjoying Tesco doing fancy flavoured hot cross buns. I don’t like the normal ones

Cat decided to launch herself from the windowledge to my desk. Hadn’t factored in the plate next to my phone.
Ch4 had to clean & plaster the claw marks on the back of my left arm because I can’t see them.
Luckily it’s not school run time yet so the neighbours’ kids didn’t hear the Language 🤬 #cat

Why are Tuesdays 87 hours long 😩 #timewarp #officeday

Don’t threaten me with a good time 😁

Your one is better than my one (90-odd miles down the grey & rainy M1 and the same back up)

Alternating road trip album choices (I started):
#Pulp - Different Class
#Blink182 - Enema of the State
#Space - Spiders
#Sleeper - The It Girl
#KTTunstall - Eye to the Telescope

It’s good doing long drives when your kids have excellent taste in music.

Back in time for the rugby too 😁

Got major mum-points in the bag today.
Drove 1h45m to Tamworth so Ch4 could get their tattoo touched up.
Less than half an hour later, drive 1h45 mins home again.

Snowball Fighting should be a winter Olympic sport.

I have a to-do list for work today.
I’m supposed to finish at 4.
However
I’ve been quite distracted this morning (offspring, snowboarding on the iPlayer, general scattiness) so I’ll be finishing when I’ve done. Hopefully not too long after 4…

I can fucking *hear* this 😫

And it will be stuck in my head for the next few hours #CursedSong

Hello! We’re busy rehearsing for our next concert on Sunday 22nd March at 3pm - Sunnybank Mills in Farsley (where they film #SewingBee) - it’s a lovely mixture of pieces 🎼🎵🎶

Beethoven - Overture: Fidelio
Fauré - Suite: Pelléas et Mélisande
Mascagni - Zanetto
Manuel de Falla - Ritual Fire Dance

I had a massive strop last week because I wanted copilot uninstalling from my work laptop.
Short answer - no.

Listened to Quiet Riot this morning but I’ve been busy - happy birthday!
Enjoy what’s left of the day 😊🥳

Most of the rest of mine are still hiding, these ones are particularly keen

On the left, two fully opened up yellow trumpeted-daffodils; on the right are three more that are making a valiant effort but aren’t quite there yet. The sky in the background is grey and cloudy.

I’ve got some daffodils in a tub in the garden, they are giving good cheer #spring

Watching the new series of #SchoolSpirits with a glass of wine & a snoozing cat next to me

Hahalolno. Fuck off with that. I’m quite happy using my own actual brain, thanks anyway Liz.

New crochet project - a scarf (probably) in shades of blue & purple using tulip stitch. There is a dark blue crochet hook sticking out of the top.

New #crochet while I watch* predictable crime procedural on the telly
*more like listen to, as background noise

A granny-square style baby blanket in shades of blue, green and pale purple. There is a dark blue square half way round fading out to a mixture of the other colours, then fading back out to dark blue for the outside border.

Finished another blanket #crochet

The face of a cat who is once again back on my desk and does not give a single shit

Wfh today.

Approximate number of times I have removed the cat from my desk: 273683852748

Number of fucks she gives: 0

So very sorry to hear this x

This is how I filter the news these days; through shitposting & pisstaking from all the lovely people I follow on here. And a few carefully chosen podcasts like @quietriotpod.bsky.social and @ohgodwhatnow.bsky.social

I can’t deal with watching the actual news happening in realtime

TRUMP: I invented electricity. did it one day, turned on a lamp and a scientist gasped and said wow how did you do that and I said I just flicked a switch and he started crying and saying "sir you've just saved Africa from ebola"

BBC NEWS: a sober reflection on healthcare from the President

Can’t we just leave them switched off for a bit?
