Joining a friend who volunteers at a rescue center for cats today. Not such a bright idea considering how much I want a cat, and how opposed to it Hubby is. He says they scratch stuff, knock stuff over and generally leave you with shag carpet all over the place, even where there's originally wooden flooring.
Well? I still want a cat. And it's higher up on the scale than an aardvark or hairy grub or any other animal I've been wanting.


Summer solstice today. Not as fun as winter solstice. Especially not now that I have to get up at 4.30 to get to work.


I don't get any days off this summer because I just started a new job. Which sucks... I'm dog tired from the whole wedding business and every single weekend ahead is filled up with activities. Nice ones, like the wedding we went to last weekend, but still... No time for just lazying around. I need my down-time. One week off would be enough for me to unwind and also manage to get the apartment in order. Seriously, the last thing I want to do when I do have some hours free time, is cleaning and tidying.
Well... honestly, cleaning and tidying IS the last thing I want to do regardless of the amount of free time I have, just between you and me.


The said kitty friend is coming home with me today after we've visited the cats. She's one of my new colleagues and having a female colleague prooves to be a bad influence.
She has a thing for purses and bags. I have a thing for shoes. Coincidentally, some shops sell both these categories of items. I've never really been that much of a girlie shopper, but now I find myself wanting more purses and bags, and also even shoes.

But I've spent all my money for a while now anyway, so I'll join her while she shops this weekend. Maybe we'll take our cameras with us and take photos instead. That could save me the money I don't have.


Today it's been exactly four weeks since Hubby and my wedding.
Time flies, huh?
I'm a bit more used to the ring now, but am still mesmerized when I look at it. Very warm and fuzzy feeling, a bit like cocoa. Is nice!
And still I haven't gotten around to getting started on all the photos. 1700 in total, actually, so it is a woolly mammoth task to sort and make photo albums.
