    I did it! It took me a while but by god I did it!

    Homemade Monte Carlos. All thanks to you guys in the thread yesterday spurring on my dissatisfaction of bought biscuits. Thanks guys! 🫡

      I’m grateful for you all listening and being such supportive and kind people! I’m grateful also for a full belly, a warm bed and a roof over my head for my kids and I after reading yet another article about homeless people sleeping rough on wet, mouldy bedding in the cold and rain.

      Grateful for my efficient reverse cycle heater. Grateful for knowing how to cook with minimal ingredients. Grateful for my colleagues who believe in me and want me to do well and make me feel a little more alive… and extra grateful to my boss for letting me take tomorrow off in lieu to get shit done. I feel a million times better knowing that I don’t need to be at work tomorrow.

      I’m grateful for an upcoming trip with a friend. Some yummy chocolate. And I’m lovely and warm in my new oodie, even if I am a good four years behind everyone else in getting one.

      Probably ghosts. Definitely not cat mischief. Those cats were probably lucky to get away.

    I wish my rental had insulation lol

    Off to the gym, then get ready for my interview tomorrow. Whilst in bed, nice and warm.

    Forgot to mention: woke up in the middle of the night to some great news. Not job related, but still very much welcome.

    No eggs at the supermarket! I keep hearing of the shortage from bird flu but hadn’t encountered empty shelves until today. Better luck during the day maybe?

      Aldi was totally out, Coles was low. Also not seeing any lactose free milk or cream for some reason.

        So I should probably keep quiet about the three dozen eggs in my fridge?

    Gave in and ordered Colesworty delivery today because I am run down and trying to have a rest day. They managed to …just…not give me 3/4 of the order… I have some pantry items delivered but none of the fresh or refrigerated stuff I actually needed. Delivery says bag 1 of 1 so it’s not a problem with the delivery dude.

    I have put in for a refund but 😤

      Ugh. That blows. And how’s their app‽ They always ask for feedback and I always say the same thing: Your app is slower than a blind one armed pensioner loading a musket.

        The Coles app sucks, and so do the apps of all their other brands. Woolworths is better but someone needs to optimise their queries because search is slow as hell

    Small tiles in a bathroom (like subway tiles) might look cute but if you are the one cleaning I’d suggest staying right away from it or else cleaning is going to be a bitch.

      I would say yes, but then again I’m irresponsible lol.
