11 Things You Need For The Little White Kitten
11 Things You Need For Lost & Found In Your Arms
Lost & Found In Your Arms
Lady Penelope and I are in a maze.
A corn maze.
We navigate our way through it.
We hide from each other and spring out yelling, “BOO!”
Our laughter can be heard across the maze.
Suddenly, we come to two paths.
Oh dear, which way now?
Lady Penelope chooses one path.
I choose another.
But soon, as I run, I feel lost and alone.
On the other path, Lady Penelope feels alone too.
We try to look for each other.
It can be very easy to get lost in a maze.
Meanwhile, I find a posh scarecrow.
He tells me to go on a different path.
That way, I’ll find Penelope.
Meanwhile, Penelope encounters a squirrel.
It tells her to retrace her steps.
On both sides, we run back to each other.
Until, a shadow looms over both of us.
It’s Thunderbird 3!
And Alan is piloting it!
“Don’t worry, guys,” he calls.
“I’ll get you two back together again!”
First, he picks up Penelope using a ladder.
Then he does the same with me.
Thunderbird 3 brings us home.
“I’m so glad we found each other,” I smile.
“With my help,” announces Alan.
Both of us laugh.
I hug Penelope tight.
The squirrel and scarecrow helped us too.
Alan didn’t know this yet.
Did he?

11 Things For Mourning Thunderbirds On Talking Pictures TV
As soon as one adventure ends...
...another begins.
And I'm not talking about 2025!
I'm talking about Stingray, Fireball Xl5 and Captain Scarlet.
Here's my list:
A box of tissues
A cozy blanket
Comfort snacks (e.g., chocolate or biscuits)
A favorite Thunderbirds DVD or Blu-ray set
A notebook for writing thoughts or tributes
A Thunderbirds soundtrack or theme song playlist
A mug of tea, hot chocolate, or favorite drink
A quiet, relaxing space
A Thunderbirds-related book or magazine
A soft toy or cushion for comfort
Time to reflect and plan a rewatch next year

Sugar Plum Cookies
Bake and decorate sugar plum-inspired cookies while listening to the "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy."
Christmas Happiness Tip For Full Bellies & Bad Nights
Cozy up on the couch and watch a comforting Christmas movie with soft blankets and fairy lights.
My obvious choice of movie is Mickey's Once Upon A Christmas.
Tea & Tender Words
Lady Penelope and I are at a cafe.
We’re sharing tea and cakes.
I’m supposed to be happy.
Instead, I’m crying into a hankie.
Penelope always understands me.
She comforts me.
“There there, now, darling, I’m here.”
“Thanks, Penelope.”
“Whatever can be the matter?”
At first, I try to let out words.
I am silent.
Then…
“I saw Chilli crying.”
“Where did you see her do that?”
“On a playdate with Bluey and Bingo.”
“I see.”
“I was playing with Bluey and Bingo.
I saw Chilli looking at a photo album.
She was very young in these photos.
She was with her sister Brandy.
Mort was also in these photos.
I didn’t want her to be sad.
I started crying too.
Bluey and Bingo didn’t want me to be sad.
I was so upset, Parker took me home.”
“Don’t worry, my little angel,” smiles Penelope.
“It’s all in the past.
It’s okay to feel different emotions on a playdate.
You can feel happy.
You can feel sad.
What matters most is the feeling of togetherness.”
I smile and wipe away my tears.
I hug Penelope gently.

Watch 100 Greatest Christmas Moments
I have yet to watch this.
Channel 4's 100 Greatest Christmas Moments.
Thunderbirds is one of them.
I should just give it a shot!
I heard Teletubbies is on there too.
It's much better than 100 Scary Moments.
And a lot less scary too!
Except for maybe The League Of Gentlemen Christmas Special.
