Kind of jarring flipping between all the moving stuff and work and now uni but I’ll adjust. Leaning a bit heavily on feel good food for now and treating myself to a muffin and coffee etc. Not going to save much money to the end of the year but it’s better that I have some breathing space…
I also wanted to say, thank you to everyone here for all the supportive messages during this move. I know the posts might’ve gotten a bit tedious and self involved but it meant a lot to be able to vent and move on. I definitely feel more emotionally and mentally equipped
It’s very helpful to vent!
Glad that you’re finally in, you’ve definitely earned some rest and comfort food!!!
Here’s hoping it’s all onwards and upwards from here :)
Did have a bit of lie in this morning and just had 30 minutes on the lawn at uni staring at the grass and soaking up the sun with my coffee. Back at the desk now for a meeting in halfa. I do actually feel positive that things are gonna get better from here because although things are awkward and uncomfortable right now, it’s been helpful to let go of a lot of physical and emotional baggage…
Went home sick, suspected gastro, end me please.
🔫💊😭
🍵
That is an excellent idea
Poor you
It’s apparently going to be a heatwave for the next three days so I might post some cool drink recipes in Food Australia
I is here for this.
Ditto!
Unfortunately I killed all of my fresh mint :( imo mint is the summer/warm weather flavour? spice? Not sure)… Drink additive, I suppose
Although I’m super fond of ginger beer/ale on a hot day too
I saw that. I don’t think we’ll be going to the school fete Friday afternoon
Orange juice iceblocks so yummy. Especially if you get extra pulpy
Freezing a prima, cutting the lid off, and eating it with a spoon is my thing
my childhood sunnyboy
Sunnyboy ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I loved them 🥹
I forget about the mountain of work waiting for me after time off :(
Very short week though which is nice :)
I’m not going to give her any more catnip for a while 👀
Edit: it’s been around 5 hours and she’s still sort of high lol. She seems to be having fun though!
👁️👁️
🤣🤣🤣

Been doing the same for the most part though I did want to catch up on the story about the teens who methanol spiked drink’s unfortunately and sadly there hasn’t been good news about it.
Had it mostly off since the US election concluded.
Same. My twitter threads and my friends feed me enough to keep me updated anyway.
I’m staying off the big media and just trying to look at facts
it’s a bit easier that way
There are days, as a tertiary-qualified 26-year-veteran of the IT industry, where I absolutely despise not just computers but anything that runs on electricity.
Today is one of those days.
If anyone needs me, I’ll be in my shack in the woods far away from any and all technology, screaming.
Then we will communicate by carrier pigeon. Written with a quill pen - not from the pigeon cos then it couldn’t fly with no feathers. 🐥🐦🦆🦉🐓🦃🦅🦜🦚📝
Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
Delivered by carrier pigeon of course.
I will add you to the scheduled flight path. 🐦🐦📝🐦🐦⏰📪
Please note that the pigeon may not be eaten for dinner. Even though squab as a meat is freakin’ delicious - particularly when baked in clay in your campfire.
Also with creamed rice & barberries. Ahem, burp
I understand to a degree
I see this as similar to the cybersecurity workers not using tech (like, Alexa/Siri, cameras with net access, social media, etc), they know how easy it is for it all to go bad lol
Oh I’m definitely in that camp, very late adopter to some stuff once it’s had time to mature, and my IoT crap at home is all isolated from the parts of the network that I care about.
I don’t even use wireless headphones because I much prefer a cable, it just works every single time without any charging/pairing/dropout/quality hassle.
I’m old :\
Nah, I’m 32 and I prefer wired over wireless. Wired headphones, speakers, mouse, charging cords, etc. I hate the idea of airpods because I know I’ll lose one, and I’m suss about Bluetooth tech. I dislike the possibility of Bluetooth headphones failing and everyone hearing whatever I’m playing, and I dislike Bluetooth because everyone can see you. I hate this wireless shit so much.
Glad to know I’m not the only one!

my stuff is as low tech as i can get it and of that stuff nearly every function is disabled, NO banking apps on my phone
now to work on that fuckin apple tv shit , i hate it
also, i try to not bluetooth anything important
May I suggest spoon carving?
I’m whittling a cricket bat as we speak… for, um, purposes.
No doubt for hittin’ sixes and pickin up b…wait a minute.
Turning out pretty well so far
a cushion? That looks really beautiful. 🙂
Thanks! Yes, there will be a pair. Friend gifted me some beautiful offcuts. Squeezing all I can out of them.
That looks absolutely stunning! I love the colours in particular, that off white goes so beautifully with the warm blues and greens and purple
Thanks! The dress my friend made is gorgeous.
Well… I said I’d just do a couple of boxes but 4 hours of hyper focus later I’ve done about six boxes and five bags and cleared out much more space in the living room. Can actually watch TV now!
If I do up the bookshelf on the weekend I could be done with the entire living room area! Need to also do up the bedframe asap, bloody thing is so heavy and cumbersome. I’m definitely getting rid of it (donating/tip) once I move out of here
Good work.👍
Working and dealing with people…BOOOOOOOOO!
People are the wooooorst!
Especially today for some reason.
I don’t feel like dealing with anyone today as well but everyone’s cheerful today for some reason and more outgoing than normal.
God damn it. Cheerful people trying to brighten up my day, can go to hell.
Let me hate!!!
Let us both hate!
Coworker just reminded me that I’m off tomorrow (fortnightly day off).
I smashed through my work in anticipation of an easy day tomorrow. Easy day just became a day of leisure.
Yay me!!
Interview went OK I think. It’s been ages since I’ve interviewed. We’ll see how it plays out 🤞🏾
The shoebox is surprisingly still popular lol
I hope everything will be ok.
Honestly I don’t mind my current role. I just wanted to dip my toe and see whats out there tbh
🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Hiya
Haiiiiiiii!!!
Hej
Argh! I’m not awake is not an excuse for peeing on the floor, yet again. Bloody sit down.
Sitting down to pee is totally a thing.
Oh man, even my 5yo son can get this right, even when half asleep. I hope you’re not the one cleaning it up!!!
Depends when I find it. I’m not leaving it sit if he’s already left the building.
You’re joking right 😭😂
Like, even when my partner was drunk, he’d wipe it up after 😬
Boyo needs some discipline lol
I’m afraid not. That isn’t a Formal option anymore. I suppose I could ask he remove the metalwork.
Or go outside
Meeting with executive leadership later this morning to talk about why a client has sought a 3rd party project provider.
Hoo fucking Ray lol
“well, you see, sir, our client is a dumb mofo”
I hope it goes okay!!
Lol!
Basically, yes. Absolutely clueless and yet incredibly demanding.
Should be interesting. Hopefully they don’t scapegoat me 🤞🏾
