24Jan21 There was a fire a few suburbs away. The wind changed and the smoke started coming in our direction. When the sun went down you could see the glow of the fire in the distance. Fortunately some much welcome rain came through and helped put it out. #2021pad #fire #wildfiresmoke

11Feb21 Sesame Beef Stirfry - This was a new recipe I tried and I'll be having this again. it was delicious. This particular recipe came from @cafedelites #2021pad #cooking #cookingforone #sesame #beef #stirfry

10Jan21 When the bough breaks … the pears will fall? Once again this tree overloaded itself with heavy fruit and one of the branches has landed right over my path to the side of the house where the bins are kept. You can see a slight curve to the branch where it finally gave way to gravity. #2021pad #cf21 #peartree #curves #garden

15Dec20 Noble does his best to play dead when he’s sleeping out in the warm sunshine. Or he’s an overdramatic drama queen. Possibly a bit of both!! #catsofinstagram #latergram #tripodkitty #threeleggedcatsofinstagram #2020pad

22Dec20 I’ve been doing a lot of napping lately. The surgery and recovery (plus also having another couple of invasive procedures done) has taken a lot of my stamina and stomped on it. Unless the kitties are outside, I usually wake up with them guarding me. #catsofinstagram #2020pad #catsnappingwithme #nappingcatsofinstagram

20Dec20 Toasting with my kids because they finished up both their and my Christmas shopping. #2020pad #latergram #christmasshoppingdone

06Jan21 This poor box was only one string from being completely open. It looks beat to heck. Luckily the bag inside it - 10kg of cat litter - was fully intact. I can’t lift 10kg on my good side and can only lift 1kg (doctors orders) on the other side so this box is going to be gently kicked to the laundry room where I can use a scoop to top up the cat’s box. #catlitterofinstagram #amazonboxslife #amazonboxtrashed

09Jan21 Getting Noble a bed that’s his own was a wise (and kind) decision. Since his surgery, aside from when he’s outside or hiding under the bed, being near me is his ‘safe’ place, apparently. It’s adorable and touching and really annoying all at the same time. Bless him. And yes, he has his favourite pink teddy bear with him too. #2021pad #catsofinstagram #tripodkitty #threeleggedcatsofinstagram

No texting while walking down steps Use Handrails". I saw this while out shopping and had to laugh because it was at the bottom of the stairs! I sure hope there's a sign at the top of the stairs too! #cf21 #hope #sillysigns #dumbpeople

27Dec20 My Christmas tree. Considering I’d had hand surgery and other invasive procedures this month I think I did well to be able to have a tree at all. It looks beautiful at night with all the lights on it. And I even managed to get the star on. I went to decorate it and Noble had decided to take a nap underneath it. I made the wise decision to leave it as is and pack up the decorations and put them away. #christmas2020 #christmastree #itsokayasitis #2020pad

08Jan21 When I was taking the pic of Neurmal, Noble came hopping in to see what the excitement was about. He’s getting around really well these days (about 2 months post surgery), but he does like to keep near the wall for steadying himself. Which is something I totally understand. #tripodkitty #threeleggedcatsofinstagram

14Jan21 Ever feel like you're being watched??? Neurmal is waiting for me to fill the food bowl. She obviously needs food ... she's nothing but fur! LOL! #2021pad #catsofinstagram
