Appreciation and Shredded Wheat.

Often in life, we don't appreciate everything we should. We tend to overlook the simple things, and they get left out and forgotten. These are things like friendship, company, parents, and the fact that most of us will always have a roof over our heads. I'm not going to go off on a rant about charity or friendship, but the little things people do for us that we take for granted do not get enough appreciation.
Through my own doing, I'm stuck inside for a while because of the freaky pineaple thing with Postman Pat going on up on my head, and rather than leave me lonely, I had a lovely visit today from my very awesome friends. We were very hyper, watched some strange things on YouTube, had a coffee with my Nan and then went upstairs for a hearty chat, basketball failment and tinsel.
There are rather a lot of photos as evidence, too.
I appreciate that they took the time out of their busy schedules to visit me, and we had an excellent time. I also appreciate that my mum didn't have a terribly good day today but she's still very much as awesome as usual.
Now I admit that I'm not the best host. In fact I'm really quite terrible. My guests often go hungry and thirsty, because I generally don't get hungry or thirsty a lot, so I don't really think that other people do. Thank god for mum, saving the day, and for shredded wheat, which isn't too bad dry. I'd eat more of it, quite happily. Obviously the mess caused by it was a little unsatisfactory, as one of the first things I did was Hoover up the bits of shredded wheat from my bed. I appear to have done quite a bit of hoovering in the past few days, but only with the nozzle on surfaces, I let mother dear do my carpet, becase she does it so much better than me.
I think my zebra might be suffering a little, and in danger of falling from my bookcase. I'd better go and rescue it.
