    Headache starting to lift. It’s the nausea that gets me. The pain is bad, but when it’s mixed with that sick stomach feeling it fucks you up.

    That said, let me present cat tower 2:

    You may notice its not being used. Because:

    I’ll be taking a break from buying cat towers for a while 🤣

        Not a bad idea! I tried treats, but I think i need to pick a better place. I’ve just put it in the bedroom now.

          Maybe you need to start enjoying the tower yourself and make your cat jealous!

          Or dangle birdie toys around the tower to make her climb up?

    I got a direct call from a copper and I honestly thought the jig was up, my entire life of high crime had finally caught up to me and they were gonna ask me to exit the apartment with my hands up.

    But no, they just needed access to my floor, and I guess I was one of the contacts they had for this address.

    I will continue my life of crime until otherwise demanded.

    Back from Castlemaine and a little rested now.

    It’s such a pretty town, that gold rush money was well spent.

    Pics tomorrow.

    I’m going to bed early, good night, sweet dreams. 😘😘😘

    Also, I’m taking the battle wagon in for repairs tomorrow. Someone drove into the back of me in November 😕

    Almost exactly one year prior to that, someone crunched me in the side. That took like 6 weeks to repair.

    It doesn’t really matter how careful you drive, someone will find you and smash you.

      Even if you stay home!

      My last car got written off parked in front of the house. A hooning p-player hit a car that hit a car that hit my car, which was a spectacular effort!

        Whoa. What are the odds? I have a similar story but it makes me wonder, how often these things happen.

        I don’t hear of car incidents happening from coworkers or family ever, but I’ve seen two accidents right in front of me in the last two weeks.

        I should get a dash cam. Or life insurance.

    Dang, the UV is staying high until 6pm. I thought it’d get earlier sooner with the solstice.

    Oooh 2025 holiday…you gave me fever…FEVER!

    feeling crappy vent

    Still negative on the RAT for flu and the Rona but this is not good. Sitting up for a bit to keep my lungs clear. Head and face are so sore. Loaded up with paracetamol and Nurofen at 7pm.

    Managed a good lunch but really struggling to eat dinner. Might just crawl into bed. Ugh just when I felt like I was finally relaxed. I am really upset. I also know I have a bad mental reaction to fever so might just yell into the void here for a bit.

    At least I cleaned my fridge and bought fresh food before it hit. And finally watched guardians of the galaxy 3 - I had always had to turn it off at the sad animals before. Made it through. 4/5 racoons.

    Finally can relax now.

    I’ve had my photo taken for my licence renewal. Was a super long line that went out of the post office this morning.

    Did a lot of food shopping and snacks and drinks for the hot weekend and test cricket.

    Going to indulge in making some dessert, jelly with two jars of morello cherries in it.

    It’s going to be perfect for the next few hot days as a treat.

    Got my apple and cinnamon hot cross buns and had a haircut as well.

    Now I need to make dessert and have a coffee.

    I’m tired!

    I just had the first stage of my root canal done. I took Panadol ahead and let the dentist know that I don’t tend to numb with the normal amount of anaesthetic so I managed better than I thought.

    I’m now just waiting to see what the pain is like when the numbness wears off

    The first food I ate in the new year was hot cross bun, so the year is starting off good.
