Good things about today: My kitchen, while still deeply disgusting, is less squalid than it was. I've cleared the sinkful of rotting dishes, scrubbed the dustbin and the cupboard and all the mysterious drips, dribbles and stains off the fronts of the cupboards and drawers. There's still a lot needs doing - the huge pile of stuff in the middle of the floor, the filthy chopping board, the life form evolving in the microwave, the congealed pool of greasy detritus under the sandwich toaster and the floor itself, but I feel like I've made a dent in it.

ulva made me this amazing LJ background: see! I haven't actually loaded it into my LJ yet. I have to make sure I save the settings for the old background somewhere and I'm feeling too bleggy to start messing with LJ settings right now. But I wanted to show everyone, and show that it's appreciated and loved.
Squish is becoming reconciled to the long line/harness. This didn't happen because of anything I did - it happened because I put him on the long line as soon as we reached the park today, and an orange cat streaked across the far corner of the park. He immediately forgot all his troubles and chased after it, was brought up short by the long line, found it didn't kill him or even hurt, and decided maybe it would be OK after all. And then he came running back the moment I called him, so I feel like we're winning. Yayy!
We also met Daisy the Cocker Spaniel in the park and had a long chat with her and her owner. Daisy's thirteen now and her eyesight is going, but she's as sweet as ever. Love her!
