What's that? More glorious sunrises and cuddles with Max? Don't mind if I do.
max (16 out of 73)
- A slightly less stressful week, feeling more on top of things. Trending up.
- Made peanut butter cups and raspberry cake in the Community Kitchen, and peanut blondies at home.
- Had a Co-op OGM.
- Spent a whole day on BODS schema tests refactoring, which was nice.
- Hung out with Max and founder winter oysters.
- Swam in the sea thrice.
- Some TAG documents were mentioned in a report by the UN Human Rights Council about ethics and web standards, which is pretty cool.
- Finally enjoyed a weekend with NO PLANS. Used it to make a website for The Kitchen Treasury (pending approval).
- Headphone shopping, as the Sennheiser MM450-X I've had since 2019 are finally giving up (one ear has stopped emitting sound, and the bluetooth and noise cancelling won't even switch on). This is the third pair of essentially the same headphones I've been buying since 2009 because they're compact for travel and really comfy to wear for hours. I have very small ears, so they're perfect for me. Only now I only seem to be able to get the 550-X model, which would be fine, but it's from circa 2015 and still £140+ secondhand for some reason; 3x what I've paid previously. I'm tempted to just pay it because I know what I like, but on the other hand maybe I should investigate other headphone brands..? Hmm.
- Finished The Difference Engine (found it a bit challenging to stick with; probably would have enjoyed it more if I knew more about the time period it's set in). Started The Algebraist.
- Finished Legends and Lattes. Started We Won't Be Here Tomorrow.
- Made many mince pies at the Community Kitchen, and falafel at home.
- Watched all of Only Murders In The Building.
- Had a great many walkies with Max including a day out in Edinburgh.
- Snowed under with Ops work, recruitment stuff, and Spanish employment law anxiety (it's all fine, though).
- Nacreous clouds! For three days in a row! Lots of walkies and cuddles before Max left for his other home.
- Had a cold. Slept a lot.
- Crocheted some sea creatures.
- A bit of a stressful Coop week, again.
- Watched all of Pose.
- Made green tomato chutney.
- Went to Glasgow and Helensburgh.
- Max came to stay with me.
- Aphids have finished off all of the lemon pepper plants and one birds eye in my living room, and given up and mostly moved out, it seems. The second birds eye and scotch bonnet are clinging to life. Fungus gnat population has escalated dramatically.
- This month has flown by.
- Worked pretty solidly this week. Went to Edinburgh twice, once to socialise with colleagues and once to work.
- Made pear and almond tart, and beetroot brownies at the Community Kitchen.
- Foraged lots of inkcaps.
- Hallway shelves started going up.
- Nice walkies with Max.
- Waves pounded the coast again, but not as bad as before.

Walk to Wemyss with Wenna and Max. Both so needy. Some cooperation over stick destruction. Both want to do whatever the other is doing. Bugging each other all evening instead of just relaxing on the sofa. Wenna wants to sit where Max sits. Max only wants cuddles when Lowenna is there.

Lucky to have some more gorgeous clear days for beach walkies. And also to have a Max to snuggle on the sofa on the rainy days. Such a cuddly Max.

More walkies. Max has a great time with giant sticks. I'm glad he can entertain himself while I sit and contemplate the waves.

A day out in Edinburgh with Max, who was Very Good. I had to pick up a box from BBL, and then we had a doughnut in ConsiderIt with JH.
Max was very good. We had a frolick across the Meadows, and took the train home from Haymarket.

More walkies, more nacreous clouds!
And a visit to the market for the first time in a while.

Nacreous clouds at sunset! Far more vivid than my camera could capture, in the colours of the trans flag. Max and I watched them from the beach until they turned bright orange and dissipated..

Work on the crochet project I can't decide on and will never finish.

Max came to stay with me for a while, and immediately took over my life (and sofas).
