Momster of Elsebub, Sindre & #SookieTheFarmCat living in the arse-end of Norway.
-I mostly post about (horror)books and cats. Sometimes I review the odd read.
-🚫DMs unless we know each other
Pinned
My friend Dave, his wife Jen & their feline friends are currently living in their car & could do with any help people are able to give:
Their GFM can be found here:

I placed an order for this (2 actually, so that I can add one of them to a future giveaway). You might want to as well? 😊
-also saw fit to get a copy of ‘Hickory Nuts and Bones’ while I was at it

I see the Donald has dropped into his odd time machine gain to suggest JP Morgan had email contact with Epstein - you know, like when he said he'd heard Frederick Douglass was "doing great things" and it spawned the novel "Remember Bowling Green," (royalties to the aclu) books2read.com/u/m202Q7

Didn’t get around to reading as much as I would have liked partly due to work and a couple of these being kinda heavy and slow going. That being said; all of these authors were new to me and I’ll be quite happy to pick up more by Kat Dunn & Kat Hausler❤️

I asked Roxie if she’d be able to source an additional 5 Filipino (mostly) horror books for me 😂 one of them is a bit of a stretch seeing as it is almost as old as me

Me @ mom today: “I’ve got some Ketchum books headed my way. I’ll send them along with Graham and the kids when they get here”

Mom: 😃

Starting to sort out Yuletide gifts for my friends’ kids and I’m finding it surprisingly fun. I’m going to have to find some decent crayons and sketchbook for the older one as she’s really gotten into drawing. Any suggestions? She’s ~5 y.o.

Things are hard for Dave, Jen & the cats. They’re going to need new brakes for the car. They’d been able to stay with Jen’s cousin for a bit but an eviction notice was served in October. Any help appreciated:

Else is looking forward to loosing her first tooth because “there’s a chick who’ll take her tooth and leave a coin”

That’s how I learned she knows about the tooth fairy. The way she explained it made it sound like someone would be yanking the tooth straight outta her mouth, tho 😂

crap start to today: woke up only to realize that my phone is a POS that tanks out in spite of being put to charge. I’d missed the bus but somehow managed to scurry, borrow Graham’s phone & give the dpt a heads up that I might be late AND make it just in time with a much later bus and power walking

The 4 y.o is afraid of mushrooms but these ones are apparently not scary because they’re dark?

One week into a new job: I’m enjoying it, mostly looking forward to going into the office (depending on how much sleep I’ve gotten) & not struggling with feeling down about having to learn new stuff. All of the above is kinda new to me
November 10, 2025 at 9:27 AM
It’s Sunday; our weekly bird feeding day which makes our 4 y.o happy

This one is feeling the effects of yesterday’s party and 4 year-olds. She dealt surprisingly well. I had assumed she’d be hiding away upstairs but she came in and joined us many times.

I’ve placed an order for something nice for my SO’s Yuletide stocking, maybe you will too? 😊
In addition to what is threaded above (crystal hair comb sold, bat clips still available) I'm adding fresh bat/gargoyle/owl tie clips to the shop! A few currently available, all 1-of-a-kind, restored vintage or repurposed/accented: www.etsy.com/shop/Torchan...

Glimpses from today:
The girlie turned 4 yesterday & celebrated with her 2 besties from kindergarten. She ate her own weight in cake & got lots of unicorn-stuff.
