I was looking forward to sleeping on the left side. Ah well.
My fruit & veg box has arrived for the month. I have lots of cauliflower (destined for soup) and a huge amount of grapes. The lettuce however was extremely tiny, which is probably a good thing as I still have more than expected left from last month - the change to cooler weather has slowed down my salad intake somewhat.
Woo hoo 💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙
I’ve had a lovely sleep in, and am about to commence beans on toast
Possum, go to bed, stop jumping on the roof.
Why do I offer to host knowing it’ll throw me into an anxious mess? Thankfully it’s only coffee for Boyo’s sister and her partner, but I’m still like urg
I freaked out a bit throwing the partay. Last time I did a little gathering like that was about 20 yrs ago, and we were all high after clubbing so it was easy lol.
How people manage the stress of hosting big ones is very much beyond me.
It was a lovely partay though. Nice & friendly.
Hosting an event is ALL about prep. Even to the point of drawing up a chart on a piece of paper. And dividing up tasks to be done on day minus x, day minus 1, day itself. Then the actual event is a LOT more relaxed. I thought you did really well for the partay.
Seems in my peer group stress remedied with coke basically lol
lol. Fancy.
No way I could’ve afforded that.
My blood was never blue enough for bougie speed lol
introductions go well
(Kittens were coralled and Cerys made a graceful exit from the room and was fed crocodile bites for putting up with them for fifteen minutes)
Awww look at how calm and relaxed Cerys is 😂
That’s me when someone walks into my kitchen while I’m cooking.
I can’t believe it’s already Easter. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YKlw1LLPvJo
Cleaning
Checking the Bissels at the GGs. Powerforce Pet is $299 at the moment
and another with steam is $479(hard floor cleaner)… ending April 8. Vax compact carpet washer is $219. The Kmart generic is $119 which is more my budget but I wonder about the vacuum quality and therefore the water removal and drying.Hate having carpet. Whose idea was this? Considering just spraying it down with diluted benzalkonium chloride from one of those big sprayers or using a cheap handheld steamer bought off eBay. But it is kinda grubby and I’m a bit worried about leaving on the toxic to cats carpet foam spray I used 😕
TW grief/mental health
Grief has combined with everything else going on and has pushed me into an actual mental health crisis. I’m getting help and all but my god this sucks. I just wish it would end.
Starting Endep at a very low dose to try and dull this abdominal pain because it’s worsened under stress and so severe I can barely eat.
early beach 😊
Almost all done w/ the downpipes.
Last steps is to flush it then put bicarb and cleaning vinegar down each one, wait over night then flush with hot water (going up ladders w/ hot water will probably win me the darwin award).
It rained a bit last night and the downpipe outside my bedroom was flowing very nicely so seemingly this whole wasn’t a waste of time.
Washing soda is better than bi carb and vinegar.
Hrmm seems so!..
might have to double down and do both.
One of the downpipes is a bastard so I’ll put the washing soda in that first.
Thanks for the tip :)
👍
Bicarb and vinegar is better for a kitchen sink as you agitate the shit off the sides. You’ve already done that with the blaster.
Begone foul purveyors of inadequate chocolate!
If you’ve seen the Kodak Charmeras I just got some aliexpress knockoff versions. I’ll find wherever sells the cheapest micro SD cards and that will give me something to do tomorrow. Do they still sell 4gb SD cards?
I have a 256gb you can have if you give me somewhere to post it
That’s overkill for shitty little cameras that take 0.3mp photos. They’d probably crash loading all that space anyway
I saw this recipe on Insta for baking hot cross buns in something like a custard sauce, with milk / cream / butter / sugar / eggs and a few other things. I’m not sure if this is some Easter tradition I missed out on growing up but knew I had to make it. This is now my lunch.
baked hot cross buns
Ooh looks good!
Yes it’s tradition. It’s like bread and butter pudding using leftover/stale hot cross buns.
Yours looks amazing!
My stomach rumbled in envy when I saw this photo lol
Who has left over hot cross buns?
That’s a twist on bread and butter pudding

Put in my application to volunteer at lost dogs home.
Fingers crossed.
Let me know if they’re as high risk for euthanasia as they’re painted out to be. I avoid surrendering cats to shelters after seeing some of that stuff
Will do. I know they have a bad rep I just want to see how they look after the animals.
Sent a sick stray to the vet who then sent kitty to them. They were still taking care of her a few weeks after when I called to check.
That’s good. Still concerned
Lost dogs or Lort Smith? I did about seven months at Lort Smith.
I’ll apply at lort Smith as well
Thought you disapproved of them?
I want to see how they operate and also help
Fair enough
