How good is the Alchemist! I read this while I was travelling in my 20's. Inspiring! 

What other books are you all reading?

I'm reading Spell of the Horse by Pam Billinge. Such great short stories...

Mr Dyer. Get lost in time with his videos...

We access it via 9 now. We love the different groups, particularly the "Frend" family. They are a hoot! We have started back at Season 1, watching re-runs for laughs haha

Awww cats. Adorable. Do you watch funny cat videos? I use them as a reward for my kids when things are just too hard 🙂

I'm a big fan of cat videos @lighthouse22 such a great way to unwind and just focus on something silly and cute for a minute.

@Walkoneggshells

I understand exactly how you feel with what you posted. A couple of your comments, re "... if it wasn't for people" made me smile.

It was lovely to read a post that I can definitely relate to with my experiences, so thank you!

hey @Jjk welcome to the newbies social circle!! feel free to introduce yourself here and connect with our other members 😊

@CatMac love that your cat keeps you grounded!!! what's its name?

@lighthouse22 hey there! just saw your post - my dad watches Youtube with earphones in and my sister and i would hear him laughing out loud to himself... naturally we were suspicious and creeped up behind him to find his watching 'funny cat videos' - and then we grabbed a chair and watched with him 😆  that's so lovely you use them to brighten your kids' day!!

@rav3n

Umm, embarrassing for me and my lovely cat  I never actually gave her a name. She arrived as sort of rescue from a Burmese show cat breeder who said this kitten had no show cat future. I picked her immediately!

So, now at nearly 16 years old, she just gets called Kitten. Apt, because she has moments of energy, and we play games with very strict rules that she imposes. She never lets me win. So unfair! 😂 

But she does like snuggle times, and that's why she's so grounding for me.
