Progress not Perfection

Well I was planning to watch the film Mrs Harris goes to Paris on Prime this afternoon, which is apparently an uplifting film, but you have to rent or buy at the moment. I don’t mind waiting until it’s included for free so watched Mayflies on iPlayer which was absolutely brilliant but very very sad, so instead of being uplifted I now feel sad 😢

Anyway, off to have a nice soak in the bath with a face pack shortly after which I will be watching a live cook along on my WW app. 

I’m using up a portion of the mushroom nut roast I made on Christmas Day tonight with roast parsnip, swede and butternut squash plus mangetout and carrots. That is the last of the parsnips thank goodness 🥳🥂

I made a batch of chipotle butternut squash soup for work lunches which is a new recipe I found on the WW app. It’s very nice indeed, will definitely make it again. 

I haven’t noticed the older cat squatting in corners today 🤞 She’s currently in the process of batting the young cat round her head so is sufficiently occupied 😆

Hope old cat is on the mend.

Enjoy your bath.

We watched the Mrs Harris film last night. Not sure where DH downloaded it from. Really enjoyed it and yes, it was uplifting and a nice bit of escapism.  .   The other week we watched a very old film with Robin Williams, called Patch Adams. Found that incredibly uplifting as well, and actually based on a true story.

The cats are having a stand off. The house belongs to the young cat, the older one never usually goes in there. Lots of grumbling and spitting. They are so funny 🤣

Perhaps they're doing a role-play of the princes' reported set-to, all ready for the first interview tonight? Love Humdinger xx

I think you deserve a 'poo pot' SA. Every time you have a poo incident to clean up, you should transfer a little reward into your pot and use it for personal treats. 

How you keep going like you do, I do not know. 

Brilliant idea 😀

Fingers crossed that the curtains stay up.

Were you awoken by crashes in the night @Sun_Addict? I hope your curtains are intact.  Love Humdinger xx

If you can find it, the original Mrs 'Arris goes to Paris is lovely - Angela Lansbury, Diana Rigg and Omar Sharif. I've heard that the new one is very nice but I have the original on DVD and personally don't need a do-over.
