  I have pulled, pinched, or strained something in my neck and it hurts A Lot. Everyone at work recommended a hot wheatpack, while the internet has recommended a cold icepack. I had a chat with the chemist this morning who said, use whatever gives you relief, so I’ve taken the strong painkillers and I’m going back to bed.

  Our poor wee Misty has an injured claw and the vet insists she needs a cone to prevent her licking her foot. She is not enjoying the experience and I’m pretty sure she’s plotting my demise. Any recommendations on alternative recovery collars which would stop her reaching her front paw welcomed.

  It’s been a hell of a week, so I desperately needed an hour or two of decompression time. So I went and got my nails done. For once, I knew what I wanted and the lovely Shantelle delivered.

  Heh. I’m struggling to get to sleep so picked up my phone for a spot of doomscrolling (because of course _that’s_ going to help). MistyCat has just jumped up on the bed and headbutted the phone out of my hand twice. Do you think she’s trying to tell me something??

  It’s very wet here, and we’ve had the emergency alerts come through twice. Our property seems to be coping at the moment, but we’re keeping Misty inside just in case that changes and we need to leave in a hurry.

  A power cut at dinner time is just rude. We’ve had to drive to Greytown for a curry.

  New nails today. We were going to do a butterfly wing over a chrome blue background, but I loved the blue so much, we just stopped there.

  Bit of a before and after from my haircut today. I hadn’t seen the back of my head for a while, clearly it was time. To be fair, I had just pulled my hair out of a messy ponytail in the first photo.

  I’ve spent a lot of this weekend constructing this “Happypotamus”. Pattern from Heidi Bears. Ran into a little problem when I discovered I’d accidentally used a hexagon instead of a pentagon at one point, so had to fudge the last piece. #Crochet
