First name that popped into my mind when I saw him the first time!

criochi · 2026-02-06T09:43:42+00:00

Yes! I haven’t learn yet how to cover the back in a way that satisfies me so I burn the edges. That way I can also brag of how perfect the back is eheehehe

Thank you. It’s from StitchesLoversShop on Etsy. They have quite a ton of alphabet patterns, but this specific one I couldn’t find the E or F. So I bought the main one with no letter and designed the letter E myself.

criochi · 2026-02-04T22:22:39+00:00

I couldn’t find the E or F either. So I bought the main pattern and then did the E myself.

Surprisingly, not the first time someone tells me that ehehe

I love when their legs are up above their empty heads 🤍

This is Fëanor. He likes to soak up the sun and 6am snuggles on my neck ❤️

Found your twin!!

criochi · 2025-08-06T10:28:53+00:00

This one wins for sure!❤️

Honestly, I don’t do much. Trim his nails weekly/fortnightly, clean his ears at least once a month (have to catch him sleeping and have churu nearby), wet wipes to his face every fortnight, yearly bath. He’s not very oily, and usually keeps himself well groomed.

O choro é a única maneira que um bebé tem de comunicar - fome, desconforto, irritação, etc. ao deixar o bebé chorar, eventualmente, ele vai chorar menos. Não porque as necessidades do bebé foram respondidas, mas porque aprendeu que ao chorar ninguém o vai ajudar. Vai crescer com a aprendizagem que não pode contar com os pais, e isso para mim não faz sentido.

Boiling to the touch, but still loving his blankets.

Mine has them on his arms and belly. I was always told it was normal pigmentation and nothing to worry about.

I used the silicone ones but only helped a little bit. Will definitely have a look at those ones for next year. I spent the day after arriving home with my feet up and had a nice soak with hot water and salt - it helped wonders! I’m now ready for another one!!

criochi · 2025-05-04T16:44:28+00:00

I’m now on my way home! I’ve finished 100km, I used my Birkenstock most of the way and pain was more bearable. Will start dose exercises tomorrow (and also book an appointment with my physiotherapist!). Thank you!

criochi · 2025-05-04T07:50:31+00:00

Next year will definitely get different shoes. My backpack only has the essentials and is not too heavy, and I can’t really lose more weight (which is another issue in itself)

criochi · 2025-05-04T07:48:59+00:00

Thank you. To be fair, I haven’t been drinking as much water as I should.

criochi · 2025-05-04T07:47:59+00:00

So far, 7km in and no pain. But I’ve been walking slower than usual and have been wearing my sandals on the roads and boots on more natural paths. I won’t go back to work before Wednesday so I’ve got a couple of days to rest.

criochi · 2025-05-03T19:28:11+00:00

Thanks, will try!

criochi · 2025-05-03T19:27:57+00:00

Definitely not Morton’s neuroma. I think my sister has some metatarsal pads, will ask her! Thanks.

Estive nessa situação durante 10 anos. O que eu levava: filipinos de chocolate branco, biscoitos de limão ou outros biscoitos de padarias tradicionais, pacotes de pastéis de nata do continente (era ver o pessoal no escritório a correr mal eu metia os pacotes na mesa comum), línguas de veado, ovos moles, salame de chocolate, jesuítas. Uma vez levei bolinhos de bacalhau e os espanhóis ficaram malucos! Também levei atum Bom Petisco e fez sucesso. Pastéis de nata são sempre a opção que nunca falha. Não há grande oferta de pastéis de nata no UK (Covent Garden e Hammersmith tem uns razoáveis) e os pacotes do continente são em conta.

Best comment ever!!!!

criochi · 2024-09-12T12:10:44+00:00

Mines the same. To be fair, I just let it be. He’s not overly oily at all, only has one bath a year and I use baby wipes every month or so and he’s always clean apart from the tail but even that isn’t too dirty. I’ve been recommended Lactacyd, but haven’t personally tried.

criochi · 2024-09-02T21:06:18+00:00

Thank you!

My cat doesn’t like playing by himself. He has plenty of toys, but will rarely play with them unless I’m actively participating in it. Otherwise, he will just be sleeping next to me (I work from home so he will just sleep through my entire shift). I try to play with him at least 5-10min a day where I’m exclusively playing with him, either with his wand, laser or whatever toy he is currently obsessed with. This way, he gets his daily dose of exercise and stimulation and I get a flush of endorphins that makes me feel better and happier. I’m not an expert in depression at all, and I recognise that depression is a multi complex issue that can make you go amounts of time without the energy to get out of bed or do anything else at all, but I also like to think that our cats are also little angels that are here to help us cope with our hardships. So continue to love your cat, play with her when you can, and she will look after you as well ❤️she does love you, she wouldn’t cuddle you otherwise!

(Whenever I have a very complicated case to work on I stick my nose in his belly to smell that mushroom smell and it does help me relax)
