Vera @copracat.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Fronds, I have been not here and I missed you. Winter is a deal, isn't it? Today the sun is shining, the temperature is pleasant (with appropriate clothing) and there might be a bee in my native thyme flowers. Hope your day is lovely. 070
Vera @copracat.bsky.social · 22/04/2026I bring you two thoughts from today. 1. Sandwiches are great. 2. You take your heart in your own hands when you listen to music from your dramatic youth, which a recent post reminded me, for me, is longer ago than the Ray Wars. 060

Vera @copracat.bsky.social · 06/04/2026Friends, I forgot I had today off because work not open, and when I remembered (fortunately before I set up for work) I was so delighted I've been giggling to myself on and off as I drink my coffee and snarfle my scramble eggs. I wish all of you a heart this light and I'd send it to you if I could. 070
