Adoption Certificate for Nellie, the Daily Thread numbat (with thanks to @Catfish)
I've been thinking about saying the special three word sentence to my boyfriend, but some things are making me apprehensive. We haven't been dating for that long (only three months) and I don't say those words to just anyone. I might feel love towards him, but to me, love is also a commitment that you make with the other person. Seeing as it's still very early days, our future together just seems not too certain (but people can change at any point).
I have decided that one of the presents I'll give him for his upcoming birthday is a list of things I like about him and I might slip it in there :)
Lmao just gave the cat a tin of his new food which has veggies in, dude actually sniffed it, gagged, and the cried for different food.
He really loved the fish based one yesterday, so I don't think it's a brand issue, dudes just not keen on pumpkin and peas.
Dumb question, but does anyone else remember the 90s being a time of feeling like there was so much potential and new shit on the horizon? Or was that just cause I was young?

Compromise on gentle stretches and sports massage at home. Or schedule rest and recovery as an essential part of fitness.
If you’re swinging and jumping about 5/6 days a week at tennis you may already be at risk of developing shin splints or repetitive strain (tennis elbow)
I have about 5 different injuries i'm carrying :(
Achilles Tendonitis (more on the left leg)
Right knee tendon inflammation
Wrist tendon inflammation
Right ankle ATFL (I tore the ATFL late last year but its still giving me some grief)
Most of these are tennis related injuries though, but I have them under control with proper stretching / gym routine!
