Thrift Shopping

Every now and again I feel the urge to go thrift shopping.
When I came across this cabinet I just couldn't resist (smile).
The beautiful colour and the grain of the wood dominated the state.
Without even measuring, to make sure it would fit in the back of the car,
I found myself at the cashier when I started thinking again...

(My last bigger purchase at the thrift shop was a waste of money.
Initially it seemed a really good idea, the quality of the painting looked pro.
It turned out it was probably produced by a painting factory and therefore
it was an overpriced purchase. No way I could make a profit on this)

Thankfully the cabinet fitted in the back of my car, pffff (sigh of relief).
Then I started asking myself how the kenderman would respond.
The kenderman liked the cabinet despite the current state.
It's still in a bad state and craving for some TLC...
but it's already providing space to some kender treasures.

Keep Calm

...and carry on... it's almost Friday (smile)

Playtime

The cats try to entertain themselves with the indoor plants.

We all desperately can use some playtime...

I'm so sorry for my absence!

My mother's condition, work, commuting time etc. is absorbing me.

Hideaway

Sometimes I just want to stay in bed and escape the rat race... 

Certain elements in our bedroom prevent this from happening (smile)

Have a nice weekend!

Sunday Sunbathing

Monday Morning

It can be difficult to get up at 6 am in the morning...

But not today!

Confuse the Cat

Music has always been very important to me.
Yesterday I discovered the Belgian Pearl

Confuse The Cat

My favourite songs:

The Deepest Blue
Akela

We can do it
Principezza

Senkrecht Waagerecht

★

Their music has been described as Indie and postpunk.

The sound reminds me of New Wave, early U2 and The Bravery.

Peace

No Cameras Allowed!

Enjoy your weekend! With or without any cameras around...

Sleepy Sunday

Time to Play

Hopefully you'll have time to play and enjoy the weekend!

New Spot on the Block

Whenever I move some furniture, our cats start exploring...

Nim found herself a new "bed" on top of the record player.

(I've used a tea towel to prevent scratches)
She's been lying there for 3 days in a row now.

Kitten Mats and Matriarch Nim

June 2014 Mats arrived.

On a hot day in June they played with a robo fish.

Little Nim

Early 2014, before the Mats era,  Nim still liked playing fetch.

KEEP CALM and CARRY ON

Now I remember why we needed a glass cabinet... 

 Nim used to climb our books with her nails!
