:rotfl: at the eating!
I tend to think I have four small meals a day ... I think I eat a bit more than that! When I have that holiday week with my sister and my mum, I have a *lot* more than themI could make up something long and involved here about absorption
but I don't think I'll bother

How's the mould?

What I *have* been doing is a cat blog post, I love the process - combining lots of photos I took last year with some online research, about the cat corbel in St Bartholomews the Great, by Smithfield Market. Great place
Need to stop now and inspect Nigella's latest chocolate offering

Ooh sorry, I haven't posted it yet
but thank you for that! Just need to resize the photos, and it'll be up.
And today is The Busy Day - avec cleaningI should be clearer about this - its not just because I'm a filthy beggar (although I am :rotfl:). It's one of the behind the scenes things that therapists and counsellors do, or should do, called maintaining the frame - that what the counsellor presents is always the same, and that goes for the physical surrounds as well as what actually happens in sessions. So the porch, the stairs, the toilet and the counselling room should always look the same. The recent pruning in the front garden has given rise to comments, because it looks different. When stuff looks different, the slang term for that is ... therapist madness. Good, innit

A good term
How interesting! Does that mean you can't paint or decorate, or that things have to be done gradually?

Busted! Damn :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:maintenance has to be done. Should have to be done. Has not been done
*Will* be done.
Realistically, you have to live your life - thats why I've gone ahead and done the front border pruning anyway. You just have to bear in mind that you're handing people information that will be incorporated into their own structures when you do it. Sometimes its helpful.
Right - mogblog posted! Left hand margins a bit odd with photos, but its up there.

Well, I went onto the book of face yesterday, to link to the cat blog (and I found I managed to set it up to do it automatically, which is good) but then the first post I saw was from a cousin of mine - and literally, their cat has eaten their canary :eek::eek::eek:
:rotfl:
Poor canary!
I also faffed about behind the scenes making the pictures a bit smaller - some really plain photos were 4MB, and that's too big. I need to transfer some photos back to wordpress as they're actually with the personal blog, and they got ported across by accident when the new host did a blog transfer. And six months ago, that would have been complete gibberish to me (I'm sorry if it still sounds like gibberish).
Anyway, to-do list:
- transferring photos as above (I'll do that last, as its mechanical).
- a phone call (I'll pick one :cool:).
- an email - to my business partner, trying to remember which hotel his wife and I stayed at in Barcelona.
- link up the mogblog to the twitter account I started specifically for the purpose. Only a year ago or so :eek:
- and the biggest thing - do the about me/hire me/collaborate with me page as per my blog mentor and frugal woods, a combo of the two.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -

Poor canary, indeed:eek:. My nearest neighbours' huge dog killed their parrot a while ago. It was a big bird too. Didn't eat it though but the owners were distraught. Had been accustomed to having the dog and parrot living amicably together for a few years with the parrot frequently let out of the cage. They haven't a clue why the dog suddenly went for it:(
Karma, I continue to be in awe of your online expertise:A. Yes, it does sound gibberish to me but that's only because I wouldn't have the first clue how to even start doing all the stuff that you take in your stride:o.
Have been a frequent visitor and read all the posts on here but haven't had much time to reply recently. Am with you all in spirit though. Such fun:beer:0
