    Ahhhh what a hectic few hours it’s been but between last night and this morning I got 95% of what I wanted to do done and I am frankly amazed at myself. Frantically washed and dried the sheets, doona cover and towel as soon as I got out of bed (two quick loads), finished packing everything including random shit of mine in the fridge and freezer, last round of dishwashing and cleaning the surfaces, cleared the bins, cleaned the coffee machine, chased the cat down after she did a runner while I was loading the car … And I remembered to have breakfast too. Couldn’t vacuum, but I’d already done most of it yesterday.

    15 minutes late for psych appt after all but it still turned out to be an amazing closing one (I’ll really really miss this dude)…

    …and I think most miraculously, I only left behind TWO things - rusty old secateurs and backup gardening gloves. Got home and have unpacked everything so the rest of the day is free. That’s a pretty damn good ending to my month away as far as I’m concerned.

    Although reportedly they’ve just come back and the cat is very cautious around them and even hissed at her favourite human :( :( :( poor poor kitto is probably confused as fuck and feeling betrayed. Hopefully she warms up to them again pretty soon.

        Quite literally chill - fuck I desperately miss being in a centrally heated house with double glazing and proper insulation. I used to think my apartment wasn’t that bad but I am freezing. Back to the oodie and thermals and regular hot beverages…

            While furiously looking up energy plans. At least with a lower supply charge!! $1.10 / day is mad esp as I’ll be housesitting for another month in Sep and I do not want to pay so much just to keep my fridge running

              I’ve stopped looking and find the Victoria energy comparison thing so ironic now lol. What’s the bloody point
