    Currently at Blue Lotus Water Garden in Yarra Junction and I’m very impressed with the place.

    I just got tickets to the dinosaur show and didn’t put too much thought into the name. This is truly a garden full of water with lotuses in it

    I’m moving all my stuff to the back room… a bit worried that when the ceiling gets done in there it’ll waft mould spores and plaster dust all over my belongings but I might try to pack everything in into sealed boxes.

    Oversprayed the bottle of Feliway inside the tent and am now trying to air it out. Ordered lime sulphur dip off Amazon. I’m being crazy and inviting so much chaos into my life. But if I cave and bring the scabby baby inside I need to be prepared to contain him.

    P’s just went down the beach… had the trap set down there and…

    Fuckn’ won that round.

    Thank you ancients. It worked. No more mouse.

    I do feel bad but it’s the most humane way (rather than poison).

    unKAOS achieved (or at least started). Clothes away; rubbish out; kitchen/bathroom/deskspace/dining table cleared and cleaned. Floors vaccuumed and mopped. Bedroom still dusty - my carpet fitting on the vac is playing up and i need to fix it.

    But good enough for today. Cupboards and shower need a. Deep clean but i can tackle that one at a time.

    Now. Might pick up some wine and head back to pups place. Now i don’t dread coming home later this week

    Rethinking my decision to give the cat away to rescue… I wanted to not have to go through yet another high stress time again so soon, didn’t want to replace Melbcat, and also wanted to get him safely on a lifeboat out of this shitty place. But it’s not looking likely that he’ll have somewhere to go and I’m getting attached to him.

    But it’s not that simple. I have no idea if he’ll accept indoor living and this blasted ringworm makes it near impossible to slowly get him used to it. (Perhaps if I could find an affordable plastic floor covering that could cover an entire room? Or a painting drop sheet? There is self adhesive carpet protector but I’d have to price it out and the adhesive may transfer and be hard to get out of carpet. It’s happened with masking tape on clothing and walls.) I have no idea if the meds will get rid of it quickly. If there’ll be a microchip that shows up. Whether I’ll always compare him to Melbcat. The LEGALITIES. I hate uncertainty and only time will tell what is going to happen here. 🙃

    Coles has done a surprisingly good job of the substitutions this week, and there is only one thing left out entirely (although I do question whether they truly had nothing that could substitute for the pack of chicken fillets, there should be many options available).

    I spent nearly twice as much as normal this month, but I am going to be very well stocked up on dried fruit and nuts as well as buying some extra meat for bulk cooking. But for today I just have to muster the enthusiasm to carry everything inside and put it away.

    Sipping coffee and having cuddles with the old pup i am dog-sitting. This is my second dog sit this month and it’s really helped with my burnout to get out my my apartment and hang out with puppies. And my friend left me a stocked fridge and a clean house so it’s like a little holiday. But today’s plan - another coffee and bite to eat then head back to my place and do an unKAOS for a few hours. I think i will time limit it. Its not horrific but definitely the home of someone who’s been drowning and it makes me sad…i would like to get it back so it’s reset and it can start actually decluttering

    puppy tax...there's a little old man under there somewhere
