It's been quite a tough week for me but wherever I go, Jeanette goes too. She loves sitting at the desk with me, if not right on top of the keyboard. She's been sensitivity reading all day for Nathan's new book, One Last Song, which you can pre-order here: www.inkandescent.co.uk/one-last-song

CAT FRIENDS...
I got this little one back from the vet yesterday afternoon. She's not herself at all. Still very under the weather. She's sleeping a lot and she's off her food. Loads of tests at the vet. Her bloods are all okay and she doesn't have pancreatitis. So the vomiting is a mystery.
