Up and down, high and low

Since my birthday (thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for all the well wishes ♥) I have been feeling a little low, I got an awesome and unexpected surprise from Dani to visit Carcassone, a medieval town from the south of France – there is a sneak peek on our Instagram – but still I was feeling somehow not my best self. And the fact that I was acting a little grumpy when I had so much to cheer only increased my feelings of being the worst person ever.

I know feeling grumpy is not the best to share on this blog, because as I have already told you, The cat, you and us is my happy shelter, a place where I can realize how lucky and grateful I should be and how many wonderful things life gives us :) oh, and with this I mean cats, of course! ha! – can’t avoid being silly, sorry! One of those magical things that happen thanks to this blog is meeting blow-minding sweet and talented people that bring so much joy and inspiration. But not only that, you feel them so much close that they are part of your friends gang, a family. When someone contacts me in any way possible (comments, mail, in real life (wow), anything!) that is always a jump of joy, so thank you for that.

Juno jumped inside without giving me a chance to take anything out, and then refused to leave, she even got sleepy inside while guarding the box.

Today I’m sharing the a-m-a-z-i-n-g gift I got from Fiona, whom has become a bff when I thought bffs didn’t existed (for me) anymore. Thanks girl for the heart beating feeling and excitement I had when receiving it and the love and dedication you put in this – add big heart crying emoji eyes (although it doesn’t exist, it should, apple calling). I leave you with the images of a super excited Juno and the thoughtful presents. Everything in the package screams my name, doesn’t it? I will soon style some of them, how fun!

One paw out, so the box is not left unattended, ha!

Prettiest pink birthday card, looove dots!

Awwww gorgeous cat brooch from Audrey Jeanne, beyond purrfect

I’m so happy to have this book which I have very long coveted! Pretty, witty and imaginative illustrations from Sophie Blackall.

Best for last! Fiona made this beautiful necklace from clay and sea glass from the Sunshine Coast with this amazing pearl lustre finish, so dreamy!

Thanks for stopping by and reading my rambling, I will very very soon share more of our Madrid trip (promise!) and, of course, Carcassone: travel posts, my favorites, yay!
