In which I am freezing and thinking about meanings

A few minutes ago I was sitting in my petite bathtub and enjoying a book (Elizabeth Edmondson: Frozen Lake - what an awesome title for a december read, don't you think so, too?) - when suddenly the door opened an Mina came in, looked into my face and said: "Miaaarrrr". She glancend very portentous at me and walked out.

Well, and there I was: sitting in an awful draft, - my cat can OPEN a door, but CLOSING a door is MY job it seems.. - freezing with this prickling feeling of snowflakes on my skin - just to clearify: it did NOT snow in my bathroom, it just feeled that way - and racking my brains what she wanted to tell me..

I still don't know, but I guess it was something about that she is now sitting on her place on the couch, where she likes to be cuddled. ;")

Come to think of bathing, washing etc.:

I simply love children's shampoo! All these funny names like: Island Pirate, Strawberry Princess or Splish Splash Foam Dream. And these fragrances: Strawberry, melon or (my favourite) peach!

And what I love most of all is this little writing on them saying "NO (MORE) TEARS"!! Isn't that marvellous? It's like washing your hair with colourful anti-depressants - it's just like an old commercials when you're washing your hair and - pow - you're happy and all your problems are gone!

Oh - and I spotted this lovely Bathing beauty on The Gift Shop Oulton Broad (UK):

This lady is much to expensive for me - and not quite the figurine I fancy the most in this shop, but it seems that she fits exactely into this entry.. ;")

Another cute figurine of the same shop which fits into this post, too:

I got to confess that my cats didn't look exactly like this little fella when they went into my bathing water.. One time I was in the tub BEFORE my cat decided to join me.. Both of them only tried it once - on different days - and had me shocked & running after them with a giant towel and one time I was ... well ...- not dressed adequate.. ;"p

Gee - this time I was bubbling along myself! Okay with you? I hope so!

With all my love,
