    Most secret special potato cake eating spot (not really just the playground opposite the IGA / fish and chip place in pt. lonsdale):

    Pretty easy to make friends there:

    Just saw the news on the AA accident in Washington. 😭

    (I have a reli that travels frequently using AA (they’re not on that flight). I feel ill. So awful for all involved.)

      The US can’t catch a break right now. LA fires, Trump, and this all in the same month.

      I just saw the footage for the first time a moment ago on tv after hearing about it on my way home.

      It looks horrific.

    So, yesterday I managed to injure myself in the most ridiculous way possible while playing tennis. We were warming up serves, and the other guy was easing into it with some slow servew. Naturally, I decided to match the energy by being incredibly lazy, barely moving my feet and just waving my racket around like a disinterested Jedi.

    Then, out of nowhere, he unleashes this rocket of a serve. For reasons I still can’t explain, I just stood there, completely unprepared, and decided my best move was to swing wildly at it. Of course, I was ridiculously late, and instead of gracefully returning the ball, I managed to deflect it into my racket, which immediately ricocheted directly into the bone right below my knee.

    Ensues excruciating pain and I had to pull out of the first game (and asked my tm8 to play a singles instead as the format was 2 singles and 1 doubles) while I winced and iced my knee.

    Safe to say, I won’t be making any highlight reels anytime soon. 😭

      On the contrary, this belongs on the highlight reel. In super slow motion.

      Tibialis or Patella. Tib shouldn’t hurt that much from a tennis ball. Have a read up on Osgood-Schlatter syndrome.

        I don’t think I explained correctly. I hit my racket on the tibia. It’s quite bruised lmao

    This is my life hack: I have now started cooking early (during the summer) because the sun beams in through my windows at around 5 making me hot and sweaty. I don’t want to eat when I’m sweating buckets. The man and the kid come home around 3 and 3:30 and they’re hungry so this suits everybody. Now I can relax for the rest of the evening.

    Well I’ve been doing the right things with my face, which is good to know. The Dr prescribed me some antibiotics so it doesn’t get infected, and I made the nurse laugh with my home made wound pads. I’d bought some from the chemist but they just weren’t absorbent enough. So I thought, what if I cut up a nighttime incontinence pad and sealed the edges with wide adherence bandage tape? Works a treat, is comfortable and has a stay-dry cover.

      A woman’s mastery can not be contained! Many years ago my old dog had bone cancer at the top of her eye socket area. She was very well cared for but occasionally she would develop a weepy wound. A party liner stuck to a cute bandana was the easiest way to manage it. My vet was in hysterics when he first saw it.

      Chillies- All I do is put them in a ziplock and throw in the freezer. Nothing special at all, and they come out perfect if all you use them for is chop up for dishes as needed. Don’t even need to defrost them, easy to slice. If you have too many for freezing, maybe homemade chilli jam or a sweet chilli sauce might be an idea?

      glut of them

      Ooh good problem to have :)

      So many ways to preserve them. I’ve still got a bunch from 4 yrs ago in the freezer and they’re still good (mushy when thawed but still hawt).

    Plugged away at some desktop work that I’d left to the last minute, didn’t delegate it though because I really don’t want to do any fieldwork when it’s 39C next week… this way if there’s not enough desktop work to go around next week, I can just use this week’s hours. But also super procrastinating on/avoiding uni fieldwork even though it’s not too hot today…

    Connoisseur ice cream (tub and sticks) is half price at Coles this week. It’s awful for my health and my gut and dairy ain’t good for the environment but boy am I tempted with this weather coming up. I used to love Proud & Punch ice lollies but they seem to only have the ones with vegan ice cream in them now and like… no don’t mix the two up yuck.

    Might indulge in a tub for home and the mini sticks to share at work.
