@catblossoms The funny part is that she manages to look put out for having to come downstairs. 😂

@uglydogs, Penny came down to join my husband and I for our workout this morning. Not exactly the most motivating image.

@pablosm Sure. I’m new to Mastadon and not on here frequently, but I’m always happy to get to know people.
@pablosm Aww, she’s precious.
@pablosm No apologies necessary. She’s not stubborn really, but she’s best when her goals and our goals for her are aligned. 😀 Do you have any pets?
@pablosm Thank you! We’re not exactly sure how old Penny is, but she’s probably about 10-11. They told us she was around 2 or 3 when we got her, but nobody knows for sure. She has been a delight, even if she’s a little lazier than we expected when we adopted her. She didn’t turn out to be the running companion we thought she might be. 😂

We did it, folks. Made it through another week. Goodnight from Penny.

Happy Friday, everyone. The world is kind of dark right now, so let’s start a positive thread. What’s a little thing that gives you, what some might consider, disproportionate joy?
For example, I love wearing contact lenses. I’ve worn them for years and I still get giddy at being able to grab any pair of sunglasses in the car. I just think they’re an amazing little miracle of this little piece of plastic that helps me to see.

#Gratitude

The people in my office are notorious for leaving the tiniest scrap of offered food in the lunch room. Not sure if it’s to avoid cleanup or just to not be the person to take the last one, but it results in a little photo series I like to call: #SadOfficeLeftovers.
