Gratitude thread - I should've asked from the beginning, do we like this idea still?

First Sunday sleep in in a long time

I think it's lovely. It gets conversations going.

Sleep like $4!t while travelling, but so so so grateful for my ability to (travel). I’ve always ruminated about what soul goes into what body when we’re born—existential fluff—I could have been anyone, anywhere. Bettter, worse, the same…

And I was typing this, this was the coffee I got…

Rough Guys Coffee, Singapore

Definitely quite a few bad times, but overall, even when it’s rough, I’ve still been incredibly blessed.

Oh crap. I left my coffee on the stove!

We do.
Gratitude - the cats were very warm, even if they were the indirect cause of the mug smash.
I found what I thought was the mug with a matching spoon on Amazon but didn't buy it there and then because my credit card had expired since I last used them. And when I went back and checked it wasn't exactly the same one (or as close as).
I found the matching mug with a spoon on eBay for two thirds the price so I grabbed it.
Despite the forecast it's a lovely sunny day.
My aunt and cousin (who also haven't seen the place) called earlier "what are you doing today?" So they're coming down to see me, the new place and of course the cats. 😂

We do, or at the very least, we don't dislike it

It is currently sunny outside. I've been up and productive, including a 4 hour overtime shift and stopping at the supermarket to buy biscuit ingredients. Now I'm relaxing on the couch with a purring cat.
