@inthehands Just one this time! Your uncle sounds pretty good

I present to you a sir upon a shelf. Here Karvinen is pondering gravity as he's trying to decide if he wants to come down yet or not.

#Cats

Finnish speaking comrades! Lend me an example of your favourite and possibly most incomprehensible bit of local dialect and its translation! Just for funsies!

Example and suggestion of form:
"Alakkonää?" which is transformed by dialect from "Alkaisitko sinä minua?" and meaning: "Would you please cordially agree to play with me right now or at a later time, perhaps today after school?"

Finally I have finished cutting the fabrics and now can start actually sewing!
These are just what's going in the little centre diamonds of the blocks, there's hundreds more pieces still in the bin I put them in. 😆

There's been this thing happening recently, where I'll have Karvinen on my lap and then Pörri settles between my arms, against my chest and on my left forearm. It's adorable, terrible for my typing posture, and nearly impossible to take photos of. Then Pörri will just randomly look back up at me, and I have to pause to exchange face nuzzles with him.

Just thought you should know!

As per the post above... He'll just flop down onto my arm as soon as I sit down. Where could he possibly be getting the idea that this is something I approve of? :blob_thinking_smirk:

Experiments in getting little clips off the new phone, interfered with in Linux, and onto the internet continue. Let's see if this works!

Apply the cuddles to the cat for emotional wellbeing benefits. Directly to the surface of the cat! The cuddles, apply them, onto the cat. Gently hold, pet if desired. Results may vary but soft and warm, good for brain.

Apply the cuddles directly onto the cat to feel better. Directly onto the surface of the cat! Repeat as required!

I have been to mother's, and you know what time it is! Rudolf time!
Gaze upon his beautiful beautiful eyes 😭

#Cats #VisitingSir

With entirely disproportionate effort, I bring you these shitty clips of me trying to show off the green skirt I made a while back, and it unsurprisingly immediately becoming Karvinen Time.

#HistoryBounding #Cats

Every now and then people will ask me if Karvinen is huge or I'm tiny (and I have to say a bit of both) but also... You've simply not seen how big Pörri is! The littlest sir! A baby at heart, a big lad by stature!
Thanking Mum for the photo.

#Cats

Today I woke up early and got up early, and have been trying to get through my morning coffee while applying multitudinous cuddles to a small cat sir.
It always amuses me that Musti was described as "not that into people" by his previous family, and here he is...

Kerv, trying to telepathically convey his deep need for my afternoon snacks, also.

#Cats

A well dressed sir! So shiny and silken! Only a little bit dusty!

And one more, some excellent furniture use from the boys:

Another random image from the folder of good stuff:

From yesterdays walkies in the forest behind Mum's neighbourhood.

Extra photo not quite in the same mood:
Trees, they're really quite good.

Alt text typed up in a poetic haze of being in the middle of my morning coffee, with a cat on my lap and some nice swing jazz playing. What are words?

One more, why not. I don't think it's very special as a photo, but it is a very quintessential view of a normal little forest in Finland, and thus perhaps of some interest.
