A woman with short purple, green and faded pink hair, slightly mussed. Glasses. Smiling with lips pressed together in a sort of determined to be cheerful despite all “this” way. She is holding a very large handmade mug of tea which has been sculpted with owl eyes, beak and wings.
A small bowl of garlic prawns. Behind the bowl, out of focus are slices of sourdough bread, a bowl of Greek salad, and the cast iron pan the prawns were cooked in that still has quite a lot in it waiting to be served up.
A black and white cat lies on a bed in the sun, on his side, head twisted upside down, front paws tucked against his chest and back paws stretched towards the camera showing pink toe beans.
It’s a bowl of stew with three beautifully golden brown herb flecked dumplings half submerged in the gravy.
Nine limes in a wire fruit basket. Two mandarins can be seen beside the limes and some pears are in a similar basket behind them.
Woman wearing glasses has her head turned showing the very short and very purple left side of her freshly cut and coloured hair. A glimpse of the right side shows chin length hair with sections of green and pink down the length. She is half smiling and looking at the camera with raised eyebrows.
A black cat and a black and white cat lie stretched out top to tail occupying the full length of a bed. Sunlight is streaming in through the window alongside the bed.
A hand holds the top edge of a sheet and doona up revealing a sleeping black and white cat’s face. He’s tucked himself under the covers snuggled up alongside my leg.
Two black cats and one Jellicle (black and white) cat are lying on a bed looking out a window. On the window sill is a tiny tabby cat. None of them appear to be paying any attention to their therapy client.
A big bowl of wontons, prawns and veggies in a clear broth with fresh red chilli.
New reading glasses selfie in which Miriam looks slightly frazzled which may be because she had a little cry over pranging her car. The glasses are rectangular?/square-ish plastic frames in dark tortoiseshell with hints of turquoise, and metal arms.
Driver’s side of a bronze coloured car showing nice big scratches and crumpled panel edges right on the hinge edge of the driver’s door.
Mim is sitting on her bed in front of a window, she has wet hair having just got dressed after showering, her eyes are closed and she looks exhausted. She is wearing a dress that has a garden gnomes and mushrooms print on a dark green background.
Two short haired cats are lying at the foot of a bed. Jarvis, the black and white cat is half upside down, half on his side, with his back paws in the air, toes curled over, and front legs stretched out with head arched back towards his long tail. Next to him his brother Sebastian is a black blob on a yellow throw. In the background there’s a tallboy with a tv on top and a cat tower sitting beside it.
A large-ish dark blue bowl full of homemade mac and cheese sits on the lap of someone sitting in a recliner with their feet up.

Tall glass of gin and tonic with slices of lime in it. A bottle of Ginbery’s Rosé pink gin can be seen behind the glass
A very small dark green lime nestled among glossy green lime leaves
Kiri, the aforementioned dog, does a beautiful paws up request for a taste of ham and is duly rewarded.
A small white cavoodle, whose short coat bears evidence of her mums’ amateur grooming, sits on a recliner footrest beside the outstretched leg of the photographer. She is staring very intently straight at the camera. Her floppy ears are held wide framing her face. She is almost certainly about to die of starvation.
A black cat is lying on a bed, front legs outstretched towards the camera, with his head upside-down and one eye open looking a bit put out at having been woken up.
A black cat sits on my tummy. I am taking a selfie from behind his head, my face is framed by his ears.
A wide shallow blue bowl is filled with a colourful salad of wombok, carrot, red capsicum, peanuts and spring onion topped with strips of pork coated in a glossy sauce.
A floofy white cavoodle sits on a blue upholstered dining chair with her chin resting on the dining table. There is a KFC paper bag on the other side of the table. Which explains the pathetic begging pose.
Still river water in the foreground, grey under a grey clouded sky. Boats in a marina fill the middle ground. Behind the boats steep bushland hills flank both sides of the river.
A black cat is curled up between my knees with her nose tucked under her front leg. She’s definitely asleep.
A black cat with a small white patch on her belly lies between my outstretched legs on the footrest of a recliner chair with her head hanging over my knee. She appears to be sleeping.
POV I’m sitting up in bed with a half eaten tub of yoghurt. Sebastian, a black cat, sits at my feet watching me. Kiri, a white cavoodle, is curled up on the corner of the bed. Jarvis, a black and white cat, sits on a bench in front of a window. Outside sun shines on a tree and the houses across the street under a blue sky patched with grey bottomed clouds.
Kiri, a white, floofy cavoodle, lies between my knees facing away from me as I sit with my feet up on a recliner lounge.
