Being told I can’t send or receive email because Onedrive is full and being leaned on to upgrade…
I already copied all the files over to a separate folder previously but just to be sure I did it again so I can drag that one onto a hard drive. Deleted some old recordings and photos I had backups of from Onedrive to free up storage, and unlinked the pc.
I don’t like how everything is a subscription model and in the cloud now. I really need to get the rest of my stuff out of cloud onto my computer and then onto separate physical storage.
We use google at work but I have needed to subscribe to Microsoft for word/OneDrive for a specific job and can confirm it is a stinking pile of poo. Google also but less buggy. I miss when we could buy and own stuff
It makes everything so unnecessarily complicated :(
I had a computer that was getting old, so I’ve been playing around with using it as a home server setup. I have it running backups, which is quite reassuring.
Fucked up you can’t send email because of it. I think Microsoft defaults to putting all your files in onedrive but your computer will have way more storage than the free version. With a bit of copy/paste and rerouting directories for documents and downloads you should be able to free that up
I’d like to make some nacho cheese again but I’m not in the mood to grate 250g of cheese. Is there any way to get close by cutting it up or using a different technique? I’m thinking maybe a potato peeler?
not in the mood to grate 250g of cheese
Bruh that takes a minute if that.
It’s a lot more cheese to get through than you realise, that’s half a block. And especially since I’m not feeling 100% right now
You can just slice it up thinly I guess. If you’re going to thoroughly melt it anyway it won’t matter too much.
That’s what I might try. This recipe pretty much calls for making a roux, then turning the heat off and slowly stirring in all the cheese so it doesn’t get burnt. Maybe I could risk it and leave the heat on low to introduce bigger chunks of cheese then turn the heat off
So how did it go?
Haven’t done it yet but it will be a this week at some point thing
The Snot she has arrived. And the dishwasher has ants.
“Do you want ants? Because that’s how you get ants.”
Strangely, I would in fact rather not have ants and am now boiling the little bastards

Day 3 or maybe 4 of The Snottening, its a bit hard to tell. Feeling a bit better this morning. I think the nice weather is helping. The hanky tsunami is washed and hanging on the line, much to the dismay of the local maggies who are pretending to be scared of the flapping cloth. They demanded rolled oats reparations for the insult of flappy clothy bits hanging on their personal perching line.
I was planning my day around my dentist appointment, starting to calculate the details of when I need to be ready and how long it will take to get there - then realised it is actually Sunday today and the appointment is tomorrow 🤣
I’m going for a belated market run. Does anyone want anything?
Gourmet sausages, mandarins, and some kind of indulgent pastry.
Some hard crusty bread please. If it ricochets off the wall when you kick it, even better.
Well that’s the purge done.
Only in the last 3 years has this happened.
I get down here, first night crash early, second night wild restlessness, fever dreams / sweats, it’s like I’ve eaten something wrong running to the loo several times, third night all gone, good sleep and everything is back to normal.
Weird. Only happens when there’s no one here, no stress, same diet. It’s like a weight is lifted, body spazzes out for a day or two then it just stops. Every time.
Missed bros b’day dinner on fri. Very much a tradition, ol’ boy always books a restaurant and it’s frowned upon if you miss one. This was basically “fuck it I need the purge” don’t care who sulks.
Called the p’s last night expecting the sulk. Nothing. Was speaking to ol’ girl and she was not impressed with bro (arrogant, speaking over). She’s a bit more honest about some things in her mental state. Think ol’ boy sees that now too. Have been accused many times of driving a wedge in the family by avoiding bro/sil. Not any more though. Finally put to rest (which is a relief, was second guessing myself way too long w/ that).
Sort of a 4 in 1 win. Purge, no shitty dinner, no sulk, now no perceived wedge driving. All I had to do was nothing for 3 days. Amazing.
SIL’s family are here on tues. (15 of them) to see her baby for the first time so that is a dinner I’m happy to go to (they’re good fun and it’ll be nice to see them meet the new addition).
Anyway this morning's sunrise:
Could be stress hitting you when you get a minute to yourself. Great news about how it turned out though
stress
yep :( this is cortisol something or rather body thing.
Oh that’s so good. Love a good purge.
The Purge! I call it “The Clean Out”. I name the stages. The first one is Jesus Christ the second one is how is there anything left? the third is all show and no punch. Love a good clean out.
the coughing has stopped
not so tired
but still a bit congested and headachy around the face area
can’t wait to be better
That cough virus is brutal. Glad you are coming out of it. Nice day to get some sun into you.
2 weeks!
I wonder if it’s taking so long to recover because I’m older now 😟
Possibly. I also think that we tend to actually acknowledge and respect being sick more as we get older.
Don’t tell your nonna I’m eating several-days-old pesto on this pasta. The staleness is punishment enough.
Also don’t tell her about the grated carrot in my non-bolognese sauce
Tell her about the cream and prawns I put in ‘carbonara’ the other day. I won’t win but keen to be demolished.
Rolling pins at 4 paces
I wouldn’t stand a chance at 10 :(
Life pro tip: don’t try to fit two people in a single bed. Horrible night of sleep lol. I called the sunrise a sunset and have done other things in a similar vein
Been a problem since 1976 at least I reckon Top ten hit of 1976
It would have been my sister’s birthday today. I am going to go out and have some sashimi in the sun
because I need to say this but it doesn't need reading
Fuck cancer. I miss you every day. The world misses you. You’d be proud of your kids - they are such beautiful humans. I can’t believe I am about to turn the age you were when it happened. I’m scared. I miss you.
Hugs 🫂🫂🫂
so many hugs 😪🫂🫂🫂
Big hugs from here too.

It seems like the kids’ laptop has developed a very spicy pillow. To the extent I can’t open the case to look at it. I’m hoping I can pry this thing open because whilst it’s from 2012 I’d rather save it from becoming ewaste. I just put Wacky Wheels on this thing for them!
I’d throw the whole thing in e-waste personally 😂. No way am I gonna attempt any repair with a pillow battery 💀
I’ll try take the battery out one more time when it hasn’t been used or on charge for a while. Otherwise, I guess we’ll have to chuck it. I have another older laptop that’s a massive spec upgrade from this one I’m not using I was figuring out what to do with, it could always be donated to the kids
Yeah nah. Save anything useful and time to thank it for its service send it to e-waste heaven.
Goodnight everyone
sweet dreams and be well 😘😘😘
Okay I think I’ve jacked upy sleep pattern again. Shiiiet. Time to coffee myself up and stay up all day, and reset my sleep tonight.
Or look for night shift jobs loooool
