    Melbcat does not like being brushed. Last night she tolerated gentle finger combing and the fine toothed side of my own comb, but I just lost her trust again by going in a bit enthusiastically with the slicker brush.

    What a bloody bonza day! Beautiful weather!

    Had some pizza for lunch, then scored a free frozen coke off HJs, and I am absolutely loving this toasty weather. Takes a couple hours to acclimate, and gotta watch the water intake, but I am absolutely in my zone today!

      I agree. I like the warm and don’t even mind if I’m doing work outside. Feels alive to be challenged by the environment. 🙂

    Ted is on a diet. If he hasn’t lost weight by his next vet visit in 3 months I am in trouble.

    Ted is now attacking my bum again because he is cranky for dinner. I am going to need bum armour.

    Picked up giant heavy box from post office, I had to bring a trolley and drag it home. 5 loads of rubbish taken down to the rubbish room so far, 2 to go. Then washing to hang out on the clothes rack ( I washed the rack, it gets grimy from city smog ) , vacuuming, more washing. It’s getting warm here.

    one more load to rubbish room, washing has been hung out and another load put in the machine

    it’s a warm day

    last load, an old chopped down pot plant that I can’t remove from pot is just too heavy for me to carry, might use a trolley later

    Any ideas on where to go out tomorrow night for drinks? Usually I’d go to a bar or live music but wondering if anyone has summer evening suggestions

      Replied to another comment but also if CBD is an option you could try Cigalo. Cigars on the rooftop terrace with cocktails is fun.

      I remember that you vape(d), and so I hope you remember that I’m a bad influence.

        Yeah in this heat those sound like decent suggestions other than Arbory being stupidly priced, I’d only add Riverland or maybe Boat Builders but more of a walk for something even more casual.

        Otherwise you’re looking out for well cooled rooftop bars that are further out. There are some in the CBD like the rooftop cinema but others are a specific vibe.

    Completely forgot that the Queenscliffe music fest. is on over the w/e.

    Been hearing them do sound checks all day.

    Brought up the line up… only name I recognise is the wiggles sound system.

    Not exactly slammin’ Drum and Bass but I hope they play this Certified banger with none other than DJ DOROTHY

    Got omni spinfit ear buds tips for my pixel pro buds.

    Noise cancellation vastly improved and the buds actually stay in my ears. I had to get the xl though for the most secure fit. Although there’s only 1 mm in diameter difference between the sizes. Hopefully I’ve picked the right size and it won’t make my ears ache after prolonged use.

    I have another 2 weeks of meal replacement shakes. I can do that. Then after that will buy some more. I bought a cute skirt that I could only get a size too small as motivation.

    Ted’s diet is going well, he is getting cranky.

        They are super easy to use and taste good. I have some fruit or salad with it. It’s only been two weeks and they are aldi shakes. I’m not sure if I’m losing weight yet but it’s also a good way to reinforce good eating habits and eating fewer calories has to work, right

        am also sleeping earlier and doing other stuff too 👍

          Cool, might check them out, thanks. I was exercising and watching my weight a year ago but completely stopped doing it and not unsurprisingly put the weight back on, so I need to start up with the good habits again 😔

    I decided to pressure wash the deck this morning. Despite the water spraying everywhere it was very hot. And very dirty.
