Hey, where is your pencil case from?? i love it so much and would like one like it !!
It is a Kipling 100. I managed to pick one up on eBay for under £20 but it's worth keeping an eye on Amazon as they sometimes have them on there. Laura 😃
Are you determined to succeed in 2016?

Planning for Thanksgiving dinner for 18-22 people in my Midori. Now know that I need to buy 8 sticks of butter and 8 cups of sour cream, amongst other things. Anyone else prepping for Thanksgiving? #journal #hobonichi #planner #diary #notebook #filofax #mtn #midori #travelersnotebook #midoritravelersnotebook #stationery #pens #handwriting #fountainpens #kaweco
Erin Condren, Staedtler and Stabilo pens. You are my kinda tumblr! :D
Apologies, only just seen you're message. Yes I'm a stationery addict!
15/11/15: Just 15 days until my next assignment has to be in. It has to be in by 30th November but I want it in by the 25th as wont be able to do anything the weekend of 28/29th. Just working through feedback today then next weekend will be revisiting, refining and finishing off.
Very much enjoying Chris Stapleton from #cmaawards wasn't expecting such a smooth voice to come out such a bearded man. And with a little Justin Timberlake thrown in, it's all the better. #justintimberlake #chrisstapleton
01/11/15: 5 hours of studying done and about 85% ready for draft submission on Thursday. Need to do a Gantt chart, input some images and do a webpage layout. Might pick someone's brain at work tomorrow for one item as well. I then cleaned the kitchen, put in a third load of washing and am now treating myself to watching another two episodes of Code Black - a mix of ER and Grey's Anatomy, brilliant. Then after tea (which might just be porridge) it's shower, Downton Abbey and time to do my nails.
01/11/15: After doing nothing yesterday I'm having an all day study session. I'll keep going until 4pm or if I feel finished. I'm focusing on stuff that needs to be submitted on Thursday morning as a draft. Then I need to go back over everything I've already had feedback on next weekend as hubby is working so plenty of quiet time and no distractions. 29 days and counting until final submission. Hopefully feedback will only take a week and then I'll have just over two weeks for all amendments!
30/10/15: Friday night Grey's Anatomy catch up. A few tears at episode 5!
20/10/15: Giggle city!
29/10/15: Thursday night and hubby is working late so I'm indulging and catching up with X Factor. Gonna be studying all weekend so enjoying a couple of evenings to myself.
This was meant to be a quick warm up, but it turned into a comic that I’ve wanted to draw for a while. This is something that is extremely important to me, and I appreciate it if you read it.
A while ago, I heard a story that broke my heart. A family went a cat shelter to adopt. The daughter fell in love with a 3-legged cat. The father straight up said “absolutely not”. Because he was missing a leg. That cat was that close to having a family that loved him, but the missing leg held him back. Why?!
Many people have the initial instinct of “nope” when they see an imperfect animal. I get it, but less-adoptable does NOT mean less loveable. 9 out of 10 people will choose a kitten over an adult cat. And those 10% that would get an adult cat often overlook “different” animals.
All I want people to do is be open to the idea of having a “different” pet in their lives. Choose the pet that you fall in love with, but at least give all of them a fair shot at winning your heart.
Don’t dismiss them, they deserve a loving home just as much as any other cat. They still purr, they still love a warm lap, they still play, they still love you. Trust me, next time you are in the market for a new kitty, just go over to that one cat that’s missing an eye and see what he’s all about!
Let me tell to you a thing.
This is Lenore. I first saw her in a little cage at the Petco I frequent (I used to take my parents’ dog in for puppy play time), and she looked like the grouchiest, old, crotchety cat in the world, and I fell instantly in love. She was cranky, she was anti-social, hanging out at the back of her cage. Her fur was matted because she wouldn’t let the groomers near her.
She was perfect.
But I didn’t have a place for her. I wasn’t living in my own space yet, and where I was, I wasn’t allowed cats. So I pressed my face to the bars of her cage and I promised that if no one had adopted her by the time I’d bought a house, I would come back for her.
I visited her every week for over six months while I looked for a house. At one point, they had to just shave her entire rear-end because the mats or fur were so bad. They told me she clawed the heck outta the groomer that did it, screamed the entire time, and spent the next two days growling at anyone that came near the cage.
A couple of weeks later, I closed on my house. I went back and I got an employee, and I said: “That one. I need that cat.”
They got the paperwork and the lady who ran the rescue that was bringing the cats in told me that Lenore (at the time, Lila) was 8 years old, had been owned by an elderly lady who had died, and brought in to a different rescue, who’d had her for six months on top of the time I’d been seeing her at Petco.
This kitty had been living in a 3x3’ cube for over a YEAR because she was older and “less adoptable.”
I signed the paperwork, put her in a cat carrier, and drove her to my new home. I had pretty much nothing; a bed, an old couch, a couple of bookcases, and a tank of mice I called “Cat TV”. I let her out of the carrier and onto my bed, and I told her “I told you I would come back for you when I had a place. It’s not much, but it’s yours too now.”
Lenore spent the next three days straight purring non-stop. She followed me around the house purring. Sat next to me purring. Slept next to me purring. Leaning into every touch, purring, purring, always purring. She still purrs if you so much as think about petting her. She’s amazing, and I love her.
So, you know, if you’re thinking about adopting, and you see a beast that others consider “less adoptable,” think about Lenore.
FUCKING IMPORTANT
The STORY THOUGH.
I adopted older kitties and I love them to pieces they are the best cats I’ve ever had GIVE OLDER CATS AND DOGS A CHANCE
I stalked the rescue website for 9 months until I convinced my hubby to get cats. My two were a year old, black and no-one wanted them in all that time. They are semi feral and won't ever be lap cats but I couldn't be without them.
Yes one of the worst pictures I've taken but I've just taken this one for my first dietbet entry. Super excited to take part although a bit nervous. @ohheyhey4444 have you done yours yet?
