Also, hi, fam.

Ringside at the cat boxing this morning 🥊

My friend had a baby last week and this week her appendix burst. No bueno. I’m making some meals to take to her fam; I’ve got a veg lasagne, meat sauce (to have with pasta or rice, or add beans and it’s a chilli, burritos, etc.), and a pesto chicken pasta bake. Do you think that’s a good spread? They have three boys (plus the beb).

I’m heading back to melbs tm to moderate a fence dipsute at my p’s place and I do not know what i’m looking at exactly.

Can someone pls wish me luck :(

Day 22/70: First day of week 4 weigh-in.
Down 1.2kg. I weakened a couple of times this week and had chocolate and licorice. Nice that it hasn’t killed my progress.

Urgh. I’m struggling with a sense of hopelessness. I try to help others but can’t seem to even help myself.

I’m trying Moobeans on the new food to see if it can go in the rotation. She’s happily eating it and I’m glad to see it contains supplemental choline and taurine as well as ‘vitamins’.

I still need to monitor her sensitive tummy and check out some finer details on salt/ash levels as it’s a cheap home brand which can have a poor track record and I otherwise wouldn’t buy. (I’m hoping that it’s one of the times the dry food is trash but the wet food is passable.)

I’m kind of leaving my plants to do their thing with the occasional Seasol/water. Waiting to see if the spinach comes good or if damping off claims them all.

So I did something a bit bad this morning. An old dude was in the car wash bay before me. He only gave his car a rinse with the hose, then he hit stop and left. I drove in and saw it said he still had like $8 credit left so I was like “score” and started washing my car thinking he just overloaded it.

Then as I finished I thought that $8 seemed to go a long way then noticed it hadn’t stopped and it had kept adding time. After reading the sign it turns out the ‘credit’ was a $15 credit card hold and you can stop it anytime before that using the stop button on the card reader (not the stop button he used on the wash options) and it’ll just charge you for the time you used with a minimum of $5. I hit the correct stop button so he wouldn’t have his card drained but the damage was done.

So he ended up paying $16 to rinse his car and also wash mine…

Hellllooooo

hears echo

You know those days when you think “this is fine” then you realise you have spent 20 mins spiralling about what to wear this afternoon when one of your besties (who has seen you at your best and worst and doesn’t care) is dropping in for a casual hello (so you don’t even have to go out)…

…and you realise you have been in a low key panic attack over nothing most of the day you just didn’t connect … 😔

Off to have shower and a cuppa and try to reset.

I made it home. The fairy bread was a HUGE hit. All the kids are adorable . I’m beat an going to bed.

love you all 😘

Well, I shan’t complain about this

busy day, bbq with the the nice part of the fam 😊 the little kids are sweet too

Bug killing done for the day. Thought Warrandyte would be a bit busier, but given there more than 30mins wait for food, I guess it probably was.

Going to try to make the most of the afternoon, but I’ve already inhaled nasal spray twice on top of everything else I do to ward off hayfever.

Hope you’re all having a good day wherever you are. ✨

Is everyone else getting lots of social media ads encouraging them to join ASIO or am I being targeted? 🤣

My assignment is due in a couple of hours, and I still have not finished. Most of the way there, but I need to do some serious editing. Unfortunately the caffeine from my extra coffee earlier is wearing off.

Edit: OK, I’m done. I have exceeded the word limit with reckless abandon, but I just can’t brain any more tonight.
