The clocks went back last night so sunset is currently at 4:45pm. By Winter Solstice, on December 22nd, it will get dark at 3:54pm. This means we are moving into hibernation mode.
In the lead up to the clocks changing Oliver was not fully convinced it was morning so he stayed in bed a bit longer.
As the days get colder we seem to get dozens of ladybirds coming into the house – they probably don’t survive outside at this time of year. It gets the cats excited though.
Speaking of hibernation, the hedgehog is still eating his food in the back garden so he hasn’t gone to sleep just yet.

I am currently doing lots of little things around the house. For instance, last week I hung 33 pictures on various walls. Yes, I counted.
