My parents get a guide dog puppy to foster today. I am resigned to the fact I will no longer be the favourite child
be glad this is not a case where failed foster is allowed
they will remember you when puppy gets a job
We DID actually have a failed guide dog as a pet when I was growing up. Wonderful dog, just didn’t like goats
As in scared of or I want to eat you raw?
Scared of. She couldn’t settle to work around them, which is why she didn’t pass muster.
That sounds like a bad excuse used to avoid conscription. A malingering dog! Pups these days, no work ethic.
Why would not liking goats be an issue?
You can’t know where a guide dog might live as a working adult. You don’t know who their human will be. If they’re paired with a human in a rural environment, but get distracted in the presence of livestock…
A distractable dog can’t be trusted to be a safe partner for their human, can they? They test the dogs against a wide variety of environments and stimuli, and if there’s anything that really seems to throw the dog off balance then they can’t be passed through training unless the fault can be corrected.
Jess never quite got over her goat thing, so she was released from the program.
I gotta new swimming pool in my yard just in time for summer. 😎
Went to get a coffee only wearing slippers because drive through. Step on the wet smooth concrete of the carport and slide a metre launching my phone out of my hands in the process. Both myself and the phone are physically fine, just a bruised ego.
Oh that moment of slide when you know what’s happening but can’t stop it. Hate that!
Happy you are fine, those slides can be quite dangerous
The most frustrating thing about working in this small call centre is when people don’t take their breaks on time.
I am on the late shift (10am - 6pm) and when they don’t take their breaks/lunch on time, it ends up pushing my breaks/lunch out later and later. And I can’t go first because “eVeRyOnE sHoUlD gO iN oRdEr”

200~ emails. Half a dozen teams messages. Could have been a lot worse!

When I get called like that, it’s a minimum of four hours. I don’t get called.
This covid shit is no fkn joke, it’s absolutely gutted me, its kind of scary. The fatigue is also something I’ve never felt before, I’m awake for 30mins tops, and then I’m out again until I wake myself from sweating through everything.
Keep smashing the waters! Dont wanna get dehydrated cause that takes it from a bad time to a worse time.
Have you got plenty of paracetamol for the fever? Do you have anyone to help you if things get dire? Even just a slab of Aldi gatorade kind of help?
Yeah, by some crazy turn of events the housemate has not caught it, so they are playing nurse maid. We are also super lucky our house is designed in a way that allows us to completely quarantine from one another, including only them being able to access the kitchen.
Yeah that fever is a bastard. I hope it passes soon for you. I was taking pseudoephedrine and mersynofen every 4 hours (which I’ve sadly run out of, I might head to the medical centre for more now) and I’ve been sleeping as much as I can.
I think this latest strain is hitting people harder than anticipated.
Hope you get plenty of rest and feel better soon.
Hang in there.
Yeah, I feel ya. That virus knocked me about for six days. I rarely get sick, so it was a true eye-opener!
hugs, rest, drink a lot and take care. 🤗
Boss called me in to start work a couple of days earlier than I expected, and I’m destitute enough to be pretty glad of it. Turns out he’s got an injury so he needed me to do all of the hard yakka that he usually does 💪 It was good to do a bit of lifting and carting things around. I was born in the year of the ox, and it seems to influence my life in odd ways!
Twins. I’m an Ox too.
Cool! Here’s to you, fellow extremely hardworking dependable and reliable person 🥂

I went to Vietnam in the middle of winter, so went from the cold weather here to stepping off the plane in Hanoi to 40+ humid degrees. It was about 5 days of 40+ temperatures before it finally rained. Absolutely brutal.

I think I was there in June, but it was unusually hot even for Vietnam - enough that it was in the news as a major heatwave. I was drinking a few 1.5L bottles of water every day and still got a bit dehydrated, I think my body just couldn’t physically absorb the water fast enough to replace what was lost. When it finally rained it was an incredible relief.
Yeah it’s making me feel unwell
I was just on the road for a bit.
Bit of flooding on the roads so becareful out there and I happened to park my car in a small patch of a lake that expanded under a significant area of the car park.
Lucky I wear boots.
I want to grow some herbs. Obviously not to today. Chives, basil you know the easy shit but I’m worried about animals urinating on things I’m gonna eat. So here’s my idea. I have a portacot, if I put herbs in there and put a shade cloth of the top, it should work right? I can even put wheels on it. Where would the best place to put it? Shade or full sun?
Yeh just wash everything you eat and it really shouldnt be an issue. We do a bit of foraging locally and just make sure everything gets a good wash
That seems like a good idea. Thank you.
I would grow them indoors on a window sill. Truly the thought of animal pee has never occurred to me, I wash all food I grow anyway, including fruit from the trees.
My window sills get the afternoon sun. Would that be a problem for chives?
When I had westward facing windows I placed a a table about a metre from the window and put my plants on that.
Ok. I’ll start with chives then. One last question if you may, what would be the minimum amount of sunlight it would take to grow chives?
Half the day. Chives are tough. Could probably survive on the windowsill if you have a self-watering pot for them and remember to top it up. Might get a bit brown at the tips in full western sun on a hot day, but will still be edible. They do need to be cut back BEFORE they flower to keep them productive. Even though the flowers are pretty - little pom poms of pale purple. They do need feeding with liquid fertiliser such as charlie carp or seasol or similar for fast growth.
Thank you
No idea.
I’ll work it out. Thanks anyway. You’ve given me some good ideas.
Back to work. It’s been a nice break.
