Character

I tell excellent jokes, ask Jasper.

He's either bored or amused by my collection of socks, airing on the sofa. He's got all of winter to look forward to that sort of carry on.

A week ago Jasper was poorly. Now he's the picture of health. I've felt pretty lack lustre following giving blood yesterday. Happily I don't work Friday afternoon and had a nana-nap. I'm chipper now.

After dinner I tended to the compost. It was still daylight and decidedly cooler on bare legs. The house is warm but I'm picking single digit outside overnight temperatures. The tomatoes and zucchinis won't be happy.

Today's gratitude: For the reappearance of the sun this afternoon.
