I love this photograph of @magicalmistermishkins l I love this photograph of @magicalmistermishkins looking outside at the bird life in our garden. I always enjoy having greenery in my office bit it can be a challenge to be cat friendly - this money tree has flourished, and I think my little ginger bear looks very majestic through its vibrant leaves.

And yes! That is blue sky outside! Rather rare this winter...
Yesterday was a milestone reached as I turned 50. Yesterday was a milestone reached as I turned 50. I am now officially middle aged and I spent the evening surrounded by some of my nearest and dearest family and friends. 

I am feeling so blessed - and excited for what comes next as I start the next chapter of my life.

Thank you to all who have made these last few days so incredibly special 🧡
