Someone I know was working with a person who has a therapy dog. Apparently the dog is trained to understand when they become overwhelmed and just sit on them. It sounds like it has a similar mechanism to these techniques.

Our house is about 150 years old and we dug down to the dirt floor in one of the downstairs rooms. We found suspicious white bits, and had to send a sample off. Luckily it came back clear. It was unlikely anyway, as asbestos wasn't in widespread use here in the 19th century.

However, we do have corrugated asbestos roofing on our "scullery" but it's in one piece so can be left until we renovate that part, then disposed of safely. It's pretty common to find it on sheds and outbuildings here.

I have everything I need for a Nadja of Antipaxos costume, but I don't think we're going anywhere.

My girl cat slept on top of me all night. I'm now hurting from not being able to change position while sleeping. (I guess I could have moved, but she's too sweet to disturb)

Oh, you don't like bonfire night? Fireworks too loud? /s

Edit: Seriously, good luck to you guys - I'll be watching nervously from the UK (where our election was on 4th July.)

Three shares, folded in half, then in half again. Maybe two squares if it's quilted.

Stop trying to make fetch happen

Yeah, I guess so. It's probably so they put lower overall salt on the packaging.

Not only "spices" but paprika and white pepper too!

I've been using Daylio for years.

It's designed to track moods and the activities associated with them, but it's adaptable, so I use it to track my headaches. It's very easy to use and it doesn't feel onerous to record the information.

Man I love those books. Only time I've finished a series and gone straight back to the beginning again.

It's starting to get cold here, which means more cat cuddles!
