Age yourself with a movie you saw in theaters.

Today we did a couple of tip runs and managed to finally get shot of the last of the previous tenants junk off our drive! 🙌 it's only taken 2 years like... 🤦‍♀️

After more experiments, I can conclude that Butter LIKES stritches, but he's too nervous to ask for em yet like Toast does. So you have to "catch" him and then do it, and then he friggin MELTS and leans in for ear scratches. 😭😍😭

Movies you've watched more than six times, using only gifs.

Butter voluntarily came out for scritches this morning. He's not done that before. 😭😍 I love watching the guineas. Especially after they've been cleaned out/got new veggies and they do their little hop-spin-squeak happy dance! 😭😍

It's been a week of minor inconveniences and I'm so done. I also have a fair to apply for before tomorrow and I'd like to have better photos for it, but I don't and don't have time to take any and therefore MOAR STRESS. Why is my brain like this?!

Got Ursa a massive enclosed litter box because God dammnit if she pees on our bed one more time I'm gonna have an aneurism. I have no idea if this will help, but it gives her options beyond the box downstairs. I also have no idea where it's going... bar "upstairs somewhere." So there's that.

Launching our Lupercalia countdown video because today IS Lupercalia! The fragrance collection will be launched this coming week. 🫀 youtu.be/lcGrHmTmqNQ?...

I am having a Bad Brain Day™️ 👎 Do not like, would quite like a refund.

Bloody piss cat has struck again. I give uuuuuuup. 😭😭😭😭

I accidently shut Merle in the Goblin child's room this morning. The look of BETRAYAL I got when I realised and let her out was a sight to behold.

gofund.me/4824d711 Please help me do whatever I can to save my girls, and to make sure the rest of my kitties survive. Share this link, and kiss your pets on the head and tell them how much you love them because you never know how quickly they might leave.

Parents evening went well; kid is masking like WOAH of course, but she's doing great otherwise. There were the usual comments on her perfectionism and the non-verbal moments, but we expected that. Everything else is very positive. Her reading is fantastic. Good job Goblin! 👏

Mr J is home and by some miracle he's cleaning without me having to ask????! Hes emptied bins and done washing and is hoovering... 😱 Has he been replaced by a pod person?? 🤔 Not sure I want the old one back if that's the case...

Did I force Mr J to get me a spooky care bear cardigan for valentines? You bet your bum I did!! And it is feckin hella comfy! 😍 He got it on sale, but now I kinda get why these truffle shuffle cardies are usually so spendy. It's luuuush!

Today the guineas had spinach and corn. Toast did a series of little squeak-jump-spins of excitement, so I think I can safely say both were a hit? 👌🤣

You'll never slice yourself into a small enough shape for them to love you. Aim the blade outward.

I've spent all day so far tidying the kids room because she's got friends coming round tomorrow. And yes I know they will wreck it again, but at least now they'll actually be able to get IN the room first... Anyway. Everything hurts. *cries in parent*

Sofa wash number 367; It's smelling better! I don't think it'll ever be 100%, alas. And I think we're largely resigned to replacing it anyway. But it's usable for the time being, which is all I can ask for frankly. Ursa at least has stopped piddling on everything for now. 🤞🤞🤞

Non-binary gender marker changes (“X” etc.) on ID docs are a glimpse into a world where you exist as a human first and foremost, with no presumed advantages or disadvantages based on sex. No wonder they scare certain people to death.

Took a chunk out of my finger on a bloody cardboard box. Well done self! 👏

I made a jeweller specific account if anyone fancies seeing what I attempt to do as a job? 😅

Me: I shall go do workshop things today! Also me: Piss. The gas man is coming and you were reminded every day for the last three days and STILL forgot until seeing the boiler on your way out jogged the memory?! Ugggghhhhhhhh. (It's fine. I remembered in plenty of time. I'm just crap.)

Oh look, my work uniform

✷ TRASH ANIMALS ✷

Absolute babes (who don't pee on sofas.) #PeegWatch

Nope. Sofa still stinks.

OK... I'm not gon get too excited... but I *think* I finally got the cat stank out of the sofa. Maybe. Sixth wash is the charm? I'll report back when it's dry.

Ursa may have actually destroyed my sofa this time. She got pee down the back of the frame, where I can't easily clean. I've attacked it with an upholstery cleaner and a ton of pee odour neutraliser and it still stinks as if she's just done it. 😭 Goddammit cat!

You only have to care about your own enjoyment of your meatsuit, in whatever form that may take. Wear the weird thing, dress up, dress down, whatever; No one else is looking anyway.

Goblin child has gotten another certificate of awesomeness at school, which means I get to sit through an over long assembly on a tiny chair tomorrow. 👍
