10/23: morning company

Simon and Emma slept next to me in the early hours.  Emma usually does, but Simon doesn't--and Emma moved a little from his normal spot to give Simon room.  Emma is an amazingly generous cat with everyone in the family, both human and feline.

I ate my breakfast in my reading chair, and on a little table next to it I had propped up a postcard I had received yesterday.  It was from an anonymous person (via sendsomething), and on the front it has a photo of peonies, and on the back the writer wrote "Thank you for existing."  I should read it every morning.

While I ironed my clothes I listened to some of my Eva Ibbotson audiobook and something very unexpected happened!  It's sweet to have a narrative thrill early in the day.
