Beautiful. It’s a precious thing to find someone with whom you can start again, do things differently, can mind and be minded. This piece reminded me of that time, many years ago now, and how lucky I felt about a fresh start with someone I’d loved from afar for a very long time but never thought I’d be lucky enough to end up in a relationship with, let alone moving in with. I remember it as a lovely, dreamy time, full of newness and possibilities- and, yes, the odd argument about bin duties (his department, we decided, but as he’s away a lot, it’s ended up being mine. Oh well!) Enjoy it all and I wish the three of you - and the furballs - so much happiness and joy in the years ahead. Xx
This is gorgeous. "When you’re no longer the only adult who lives in your house, fires are lit by someone else, there are lights on when you come home. You don’t always cook your own dinner. You’re not the only one creating the cosy." – literally welled up with joy for you (and for the notion of someone else co-creating cosy)
This was really, really lovely. Great success in getting the cat on board, they can be hard to please!
Thank you! Yes one of absolutely fascinated, our other cat sort of pretends he doesn't exist 😊

aaahhh, thank you love xxxxx Hope you’re on the mend
This is cosy writing at its cosiest. Such a lovely read, especially during a decidedly not-cosy news week!
That is such a lovely description, thank you
Oh I love this x
❤️❤️❤️
Loved the "cat walked nonchalantly past the dog" part!
She takes great pleasure in drinking from his water bowl as a power move :)
