I’ll admit it, today was going to be a real struggle. Nothing even remotely inspiring happened at work (well nothing I can blog about) and even the cat has stopped being entertaining.

I lost a very dear cat about 10 years ago. I still have *the box* on a shelf in my bedroom. I find it comforting and can’t bring myself to do anything else with it. I fully intend, in years to come, to have an entire shelf of boxes.
