Brrrr..Hibernating today...and the tale of a little ginger cat..

Really cold today, and the frost was everywhere this morning. So we stayed in today, and had soup for lunch and fiddled around a bit.
VT has been looking after next doors little ginger girl cat all over Christmas and New Year. He let her out each morning and in again each night as it went dark. She is a beautiful little thing..comes running when he arrives in his car, and follows him down to the Post office when he goes to post a letter or get the papers. Well they arrived back on Saturday night, so he doesn't do that anymore. Last night was the coldest night of the year. He went down to post a letter at about midnight and came back to say the little ginger cat was outside, and they were in bed!!!!!!!!!
All the work he had done getting it into a lovely little routine! one night back and it's out in the cold! poor little thing. So we had a bit of a conflab, and he decided to let it stay in the porch. he got her some biscuits, and some water, and made some curtains into a little nest for her, and she stayed there all night. He let her out in the morning, and he said she seemed thrilled, and was rolling over in the path. God knows where they thought she was sleeping last night..they should be ashamed of themselves! I know we treat our two like babies a bit, but i couldn't live with myself if I thought they were shut out on such a cold night. There's no knowing some folks is there!

At least we both seem to be on the mend now. It has been a rubbish Christmas really, what with me and the virus, and VT and his terrible cold..Good job we didn't have a load of food in we didn't waste anything really, just a few bits and pieces.The hit of the Christmas was the clotted cream rice puddings, they were sublime, we both enjoyed those.
Our daily menu has fallen by the wayside the last few weeks, mainly because we have both been off our food, so it has been a matter of tempting the appetite really.We hanen't had proper main meals just had what we fancied. We have both lost weight, VT from running around after moi, and me through not eating a lot. I reckon to have gone down about a stone, and VT says he is under the eleven stone mark.+
The last day or so we have been eating more normally though, but a bit of a way to go yet.At least we are not worrying about the amount of weight we have put on over Christmas!
Tonight we are having:
Carrots..
Apart from that, not sure.
