        The one plant I have vetoed for our garden, to my wife’s dismay.

        It’s a choice between me being able to breathe and see, or the jasmine.

        Of course, it took her wayyy too long to come to a decision about how to proceed though… 😆

    Mr P finally tested negative this morning. I’m off back to work, broke as a joke! Wish they hadn’t taken away sick pay for casuals, would’ve really helped. I know you get paid a little extra and you’re meant to tuck it away in case you get sick, but in a single income family that ain’t happening.

      Deadpool and Wolverine?

      It helps if you’ve been following the Marvel universe, but the movie did a good job with exposition I think.

      Very entertaining flick.

        I did accessibility testing on some when I worked at the DET. They were so bad. All I had to do is be able to use a screen reader and TAB through all the options, so many failed at that.

        Apparently accessibility needs to be scoped into these things from the start, they don’t build them with those features in mind

    😝 The Daily Chair. I gave the chair a rub down using the finest sandpaper and then applied the 3rd coat with long strokes being careful for drips.

    It’s look so glossy and awesome. Can’t wait to use it on a daily basis. 🙂

    Great Ted Cat update.

    Ted asked to have his face brushed and the rest of him brushed too. He likes it and I think he sees the need for it. Sadly he isn’t a low maintenance Neeb he’s a high maintenance Blue Himalayan, which explains his very cute face.

    He has knots that we are working on. 😿

    Despite mrs b’s lack of enthusiasm, and a little bit more lenience from her than I would like I’ve gotta say the bedtime routine seems to be working a lot better with the kid. That’s night 2 he’s gone down after 2 stories without it being a shit fight. And we’re only 3 days into the routine.

    I realised I haven’t had Vegemite in a long time. I’m ashamed to admit it, but it’s been about 1-2 years since I last had it. I remedied that with some Vegemite toast. I dont usually eat breakfast, but sometimes you just need that nice kick to start the day. And it’s useful because it’s actually got some food value, especially with wholemeal or high fibre bread. Unlike most cereals which are essentially just flavoured sugar

        Sourdough 🤤🤤🤤🤤

        I only have sourdough on a fancy day when I get eggs Benny from a nice cafe. There’s one near be that does a bleeding Jane one or something like that. Basically just eggs Benedict, but they put sriracha in the eggs and over the top. Pretty good with a tall OJ!

            I’m not sure I quite have the brain (or consumption) capacity to make bread at home. I usually only eat bread a couple times a week, and wouldn’t eat sourdough enough to be worth it
