✅ Spent an inordinate amount of time and money buying very fancy clothes for my cousins kid whose birthday I’ll miss and will be moving away for good before I get back from my second trip. I know her mum loves this shit but they haven’t been managing finances that well so this will be appreciated and kept in good nick, sold on when kid outgrows them. It’s more than I would spend on myself for clothes! At least that’s two xmases/new years covered and I won’t have to spend on that family again for a very long time.
✅ Went to mks for xmas cooking supplies: jar of chopped up banana blossoms, and maldive fish chips to combine with for a SL style stir fry; and a jar of innala yams for a garlicky curry with ground mustard. Also snacks and a box of prawn noodles.
✅ Then to a friends place to wash out a bunch of pots and planter boxes to take home and list on fb marketplace - exhausted the fuck out of me, I am so unfit it’s not funny. She might have to move sooner than i thought next year and i may need a new home for some plants if another aunty doesn’t get back :( may need to ask around my colleagues. Or take up Bottom_racer’s offer…
✅ Then Leo’s for fancy choccies (bank balance is looking dire by now)… and fancy Kew woolies for nice instant coffee and bikkies and crackers for trip…
✅ Vicky G Coles for 2x gift vouchers…
✅ then HOME for a cold drink, shower and a lie down.
I think I will do my strategy of working a bit tomorrow so I can have a breather on Tuesday to cook and wash up. Definitely not driving on Wednesday.
Also realised they put only one of my two discount items as discounted at the Expensive Kids Clothes Store - I’m going straight back tomorrow even though it’s a bitch to park, that dress was expensive enough on discount let alone full price! Harrumph.
Might be getting very little from these guys this year though as they’ve been getting fried at my friend’s place after being semi sheltered on a balcony for so long. No fertilisers or real TLC either

All welcome here lotsa space, soil, pots, beds and water :)
And a devotion to the hawt sauce.
