I've just updated the available cats page, we have some REALLY special kitties in and some of them have been waiting ages. Their forever home might be on your timeline, please share? 🥰
Moggies looking for homes
After hearing 50,000 times that we should put the available cats on the website, we’ve made a page! Hooray! However, it is still just me doing most of the work in the shelter. So there’…

Been for an x-ray at the lovely new diagnostic centre that's so new the seats in the waiting area don't have pee stains. Went in before my appointment time which never happens in NHS situations. I do hope this is a sign of things to come.

I know my cat has been really poorly this year and I know I've claimed A LOT and I know she now has a medical condition but a premium increase of 80% feels a tad excessive

Do I regret speed eating a protein bar before gym class? Do I regret making things worse by washing it down with warm sparkly water? Also yes.

I gave explicit instructions not to touch something while my scheduled tasks ran to test the coding and guess what? Clock is now reset and I'll have to wait another 28 days to see if it all works.

At work, I'm in operations against my will because of reasons & today I've found out that operations may not be given the traditional Xmas shopping day. If this happens there will be a mutiny and I will be leading the charge.

Slightly annoyed that a simple exercise given to me by the musculoskeletal specialist on Friday has improved my bad ankle so much so quickly. I've been in pain for ages. X-ray booked for Thursday & scan appointment TBA. Not sure I need them now!

Sat down to get some christmas presents ordered but so uninspired I've wandered off. We always do lists but this year they're even worse than usual. I think everyone is going to end up with Amazon vouchers. Merry Christmas!

So. Despite me pointing out that my dyscalculia would make it difficult for me to make sense of the numbers and someone from the MI team taking on the checking, I've been asked why the numbers don't add up. Sigh.
And speaking of dense people I sent a note that the global team would collate data on 18th so today, 19th, is not the day to be pointing out errors.

Message in the work socials feed to celebrate men who are allies for women. Not really what today is about is it. I don't know how so many dense people can end up in a single organisation.

Our top UK CEO is retiring and his replacement is a man who is coming back to UK after many years in Asia instead of the woman based in the UK & who is actually the right person for the job. And we keep being told DEI is not being rolled back.

The only flavours we can do are vanilla, banana, and Labour Leader Pretending to be Nigel Farage.

CUSTOMER:
Is that a new flavour?
EMPLOYEE:
Yeah

Apparently the CEO announced we are getting the traditional 'extra' day holiday for Christmas again this year but I wasn't listening. Serves me right really.

Arrived at the gym as per usual Sunday morning routine to find it taped off with fire tape & clearly closed for some sort of catastrophic reason. Whilst I hope no one was hurt, would have been nice if they could have let members know it was closed. Fair number of roided up chaps getting quite angry!

I can't go to to the exotic fruit shop today after all as my kitchen tap may be getting fixed if the plumber can get the part. Won't know until he calls me. I was really looking forward to some exotic fruit 🙁

Night 1 of an expensive orthopedic pillow so it's early days, but I had the best sleep I've had in ages & have considerably less pain than usual. Could this have been the answer all along? Cheap pillows were crippling me?

Disappearing from a loved one's life when they get dementia because you find it upsetting is not an excuse. Everyone finds it distressing so wise up and support them.
