Stella is assessing the new box for comfort
A small black and white cat sits in a small cardboard box, just big enough for her. She seems pensive.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

Meanwhile the foxes are still stopping by

The remains of the cardboard box are barely clinging on. They love the box so much.
A tabby and white cat and a tuxedo cat prowl around a really sad looking piece of cardboard which was once a box.

Pretty view on the way out of work today
Green grass, trees in the distance and a huge double rainbow.

Just spent two hours singing about being a demon in choir and now I’m wondering what Elgar was thinking.

Today a student told me that I remind her of Emma Thompson playing Beatrice in ‘Much Ado’ and I have decided this is high praise from a Yr 9.

Week 3 of her cardboard box and she’s still not ready to part with it.
A small black and white cat sits in the remains of a cardboard box, which has seen better days. The cat has an accusing expression on her face, like she knows I want to get rid of the box.

Just been shouted at by my visiting fox. She turned up late for dinner after her cubs had already called round. When I gave her some food, she made a high pitch trilling sound at me. Not sure if she was thanking or scolding me… #FoxOfTheDay
