I hope everyone on GoY has had an enjoyable Christmas and wish you all a very Happy and Healthy New Year. No doubt some of you will be recovering (like me!) from too much good food and excitement over the last week!

I have just said goodbye to my twin daughters who are flying off to Florida to take part in the Goofy Challenge in Florida, a half marathon on one day and a full marathon on the second day. Not my idea of fun but they and lots of their friends enjoy it and are raising money for the Kent Air Ambulance. About 14 of them are going together.

Millie and I are settling down to a couple of quiet days when I will do some catching up on Goy…..

….although Millie has her own ideas when it comes to the best way to use a computer :)

One of my favourite Christmas presents which Millie was not too sure of….

….it’s a mini Millie!

Wishing you, once again, a very happy and blessed New Year.

Thank you. Not a good start to the new year weatherwise - heavy rain most of the day and my front garden path and flower beds are under water :( I have just returned from an evening walk with Millie (plus my daughter and Stanley), soaked to the skin so just about to take a hot shower before preparing a meal :)

2 Jan, 2012

 

Thanks GEE....same to you. I thought it was real!!!!Is is ceramic? I once had black and white cat slippers for Christmas, and Henry, our cat at that time, attacked them really nastily, then looked a bit miffed when they weren't another 2 cats!!!!!Amazing how expressive are Millie's eyes!

Happy New Year to you both have a good one.....x

Lol I have just realised that mini Millie isn't real, perhaps thats why big Millie is looking a tad disgusted!!
Happy New Year Gee.;0)))

I think Millie's nose would really be out of joint if Mini Millie was real, PP and Dorjac. I'm not sure what it is made of. I saw it ages ago in one of those big barns full of antiques and collectables and it was quite expensive. Apparently my youngest daughter went back and negotiated a good price for it :)

Come to think of it Gee, Millie looks like she muscles in on your computing. I just noticed your feet in the first picture. Okay mum, so that silver friend is over your knees...I can deal with that. Like one of our cats with a newspaper!! Incidentally thats a super gizmo for computing in a chair.... without a determined canine on your knee. Can you tell me any more about it Gee?

My computer is on a little laptop table from Ikea, Dorjac. It triangular in shape and the height can be adjusted as well as sloped towards the user. I'll take a photo this afternoon so you can see it properly. Just about the feed my granddaughter - no college today so she has rung to ask if the cafe if open! :)
