Just took this picture. It makes me happy seeing my #ShadowCat so content. He wasn't always like that.
Hidden under the duvet, under my legs is #GhostCat, for whom being close to the 'tinopener' means fur on skin. Yes, it means she's snuggled up to my 🍏 right now.

SkeletonKey @Buechersuechtling - I‘m in a group dedicated to The Dark Crystal and we‘re all crying about the fact that Netflix won‘t release any info on the new series 😂 5y
Buechersuechtling @SkeletonKey You hear me squeaking❓ 😊 I absolutely can‘t understand why this movie gave me nightmares when I was a young kid. Years later, when I watched it for the next time I immediately fell in love with it. And every time I now see that it is broadcasted on TV I want to watch it. I really like it it‘s made so lovely. 5y
SkeletonKey @Buechersuechtling - It‘s so good! Never gets old. 😍 5y

I wasn't going to post for the reading buddies hour since I'm here alone. But then I saw @hermyknee posted that plants count.
These are my two Christmas cacti. They both recently lost their blooms so they are resting now.

I purchased half a dozen Cacti and succulents which did well for a year. I then got this book to try and look after them a little better. Following the instructions they all flourished for a while then two died.

This book is great for beginners. Lots of good info for care: how to repot, water, feed, how much sunlight, types of soil to use etc. The pictures are fun and easy to recognize. Something for anyone looking to care for their succulents & cacti! #cacti #succulent #planty #arc
