It sounds like you are fully prepped for both the gratitude and anti-gratitude threads today.

Got the lunch notes done early as tonight’s Harry Potter chapters are quite long.
Gratitude thread - I should’ve asked from the beginning, do we like this idea still?
First Sunday sleep in in a long time
I think it’s lovely. It gets conversations going.
Sleep like $4!t while travelling, but so so so grateful for my ability to (travel). I’ve always ruminated about what soul goes into what body when we’re born—existential fluff—I could have been anyone, anywhere. Bettter, worse, the same…
And I was typing this, this was the coffee I got…
Definitely quite a few bad times, but overall, even when it’s rough, I’ve still been incredibly blessed.
Oh crap. I left my coffee on the stove!

It is currently sunny outside. I’ve been up and productive, including a 4 hour overtime shift and stopping at the supermarket to buy biscuit ingredients. Now I’m relaxing on the couch with a purring cat.
I often tell Tommy Cat that he’s very good at jumping, because everyone likes a bit of positive feedback. But tonight I’ve had to admit to him that both Simone Biles (and the other gymnasts) and the Equestrian horsies are probably better jumpers than him.
He might need to stick to the Olympic events of Napping and Being Fluffy.
If I were a judge I’d vote Tommy cat.
Tommy gonna prove you wrong at 3am.
He’s sad now and reckons he needs to be carried. Not even gonna try.
Well. I typed something into my search bar and an instagram link of this girl who my ex is friends with popped up, didn’t do a good job at deleting it, and before I know it, I see that my ex has launched a music duo with the girl he told me not to worry about. Are they dating? Probably. The way he looks at her. The way they look at each other.
I feel exactly how I did right after we broke up, and I thought I’d come far. I feel so fucking stupid.
I have to cook lunch and do uni shit, but I feel guttered. At least this will help me move forward.
don’t type “something” into search bars
also, if you loved him be happy he is happy
now it’s your turn to be happy 😊 hugs
Yep I won’t be doing that again.
I am happy that he’s happy, even though he hurt me. But it’s just the whole why couldn’t he be happy with me thing that’s getting to me.
I want to be happy too.
I’ve dated plenty of lovely women where we weren’t right for each other and it was better that we split up. Nothing necessarily wrong, just not compatible.

Diving down into the rabbit hole won’t do you any favours.
I don’t know how you can move on from this but just that you felt a lot more strongly about him than how he felt about you.
I know you wanted to be happy but it doesn’t have to be with someone who wasn’t into you, it wouldn’t be worth it.
A photo/movie is one instant snapshot of a moment. That’s all it is and you don’t need to add more into the narrative of it to make yourself feel bad about it.
You do have to accept that he wasn’t the one but there’s plenty of others out there who would be a better match for you. It’ll take time so go slowly.

One day, he may type something in the search bar and miss you. No guarantees, though. Solo time gives space to work out what makes you happy. 🤔 new hobby. New friends. New interest. Self care. Counselling. Metamorphosis. New butterfly 🦋 ✨️Block both of them, this will just lead you back into the mental quagmire.
Don’t worry about it. From the sounds of things she might just be the latest girl and end up in your situation too. Even if they stay together there are no guarantees things are happy behind closed doors.
i am here to sing the praises of icare toilet paper
it does not break
We’ve been using their paper towel, and I’m a fan. It has half sheet perforations and it doesn’t fall apart but it doesn’t cost a bomb either.
I’m walking around the house speaking French and also declaring bodily functions as gold worthy.
Uhn, doo, twa, cat-tree, sink, says, wheat, nerf, diss.
Oui oui baguette, tu t’appelle comment? Je m’appelle Spud.
That’s all I remember from French lol
Très bon.

I’d be saying “hola amigo” every single time.
We’re doing a sleep school for a week starting tomorrow. I hope we can get something out of it as the boys do have some trouble going to sleep and a lot of regular sleep settling advice doesn’t work because you can’t let a kid cry it out whilst there’s another kid asleep in the same room.
At best it might feel a little like a working holiday as all meals are provided. It would be nice to spend a week where we don’t have to worry about as many things for once.

Legs are feeling it today from going up and down ladders all w/e. Ladders hit different to stairs. I thought they’d be alright but thankfully it brings us to a rave choon, silly Legs
Also just got some hail inner east which I haven’t seen in a while.
Body clock, please do me s favour and let me sleep?
I have a new plan for my German plate - Pfeffurnusse biscuits. Looks like they have a similar flavour profile to the suggested Spekulatius, but are a bit thicker and either iced or dusted with icing sugar instead of having a fancy press/roller to make them look pretty.
I know it’s not what the name means, but I’d be so tempted to shape these as little white mice
I did a mouse-shaped-biscuit Google search and it is definitely doable - sliced almond ears seem to be the preferred option.
Pfeffernusse are yum. So are Speculaas, but pretty sure those are Dutch, so you’ve made a good call.
From what I can tell based on my superficial Google searching Speculaas are Dutch, but there are also versions made in parts of Germany under a slightly different name. Once my textured roller arrives I might try some of those for myself anyway, as I’ll be looking for all sorts of rolled biscuit recipies to justify buying it!
Sounds about right! I haven’t made biscuits for ages, maybe it’s baking weather…
