  • It’s hard to stay up all night, running around the house, keeping everyone up… πŸ’€πŸ˜ΌπŸˆ

    Grey cat sleeping in the sun, curled up into a ball, half on a white chair and half on a red plaid blanket.

    I guess I have become a crazy cat person, all I seem to do lately is take pictures of Alex. πŸ˜ΉπŸ“·

  • Someone is very upset they’re not allowed to eat this morning before going to the vet… 😹

    Grey cat, with yellow eyes, on a bed, looking at the camera.
  • Follow-Up: The IKEA Sonos speaker is working perfectly (which is more than I could ever say of the HomePod Mini stereo set up) this morning; holiday music is flooding the room whilst I’m debugging some legacy Java code. πŸ€“πŸŽ„ (Yes, I had a spare speaker lying around… 🀣) πŸ“·

    Christmas tree with lights and one ornament at the top (a photo frame with no photo for privacy purposes), in front of a record player, with the end of a lamp on the right side of the photo. An IKEA Sonos speaker is on top of the record player, with an 'Ella' record in the middle and a series of objects is on the left side of the record player: three Nintendo amiibo figures (Link, Bowser, and Bokoblin), a Lego penguin, a Jesus stature, and a N64 Lego cube. On top of the cube is a HomePod mini, along with two of the amiibo, and a dried pink rose.
