Put a cat to sleep yesterday. Feel like I'm being a massive fuckoff inconvenience for booking in some annual for the next couple days, yet I know it'll be worse if I go in.

Not sure what the point of this comment was, but fuck it, sometimes you've gotta vent.

Today saw a person wearing an oodie in Kmart, and someone in pyjamas in the supermarket. I think we have all collectively decided fuckit, it’s too cold.

I start work Tuesday (for some unknown reason).

Tomorrow it's haircut/beard trim, meal prep, shopping and playing with fluffybutt because it's going to be weird being away from the house for approx 11 hours a day.

By 8pm tonight I was ready for bed. So I thing my sleep clock is back to normal.

Goodnight all ❤️

Excuse the messy bed

Also I forgot to mention, if anyone needs a reference, you're welcome to hit me up 🙂

So much for plans for the day. Boyo regretting decisions to drink much rocket fuel punch, then eat special brownies and pavement. Colourful words and contusions.

Still out in the CBD. Crazy my MIL and I are so similar. I wish she was my mum, she's put in the work to turn herself around, while having cptsd. A true inspiration to me.

I love her so much. She's just such an amazing person. I feel so blessed by the universe, after 28 years of shit, to have these people in my life.

The sun is out, the grass is riz, I wonder where the mower is.

I have a tomato plant against a wall I was hoping would survive over winter and maybe give some early fruit next year. Not only is it surviving, it has actually produced a tomato! I don't expect it to ripen in this weather, but it definitely bodes well for the early summer fruit plan.

So we finally have a bedroom door. (previous apartment didn't have one)

Except we can't close it.

The balls of fur totalling 15kg would scream at the door to be let in, once let in, they would park themselves on my wife and I, one on her side, one on top in between us, one on my side - trapping us in place.

OK. I'm up at 6:30am. I'm ready for work next week.

That might be a level of clickbait way too far. In fact I'd say it's just "lying"

I am doing it. I am going outside in search of sunshine, ibuprofen and proper sudafed.

I think it's time for an afternoon nap 😴

Eating at a sandwich place outside. This person is standing “away” from the eating area to have her cigarette, but the wind is blowing the smoke smell right where I’m eating. Gross.

The sandwich was A+ though, so satisfied.

Went into the city yesterday and went to the State Library. I thought I'd finally be able to make an appearance at one of the pro Palestine demonstrations but it was some weird anti CCP group out the front yesterday

I've finished sewing the covers, they look cool. Now for taking the old material off the seat pads and stapling the new on. After that sand and paint the chairs. 👍

🥱 goodnight

Went ice skating this afternoon. 2.5 hours on the ice with the kids..I am so sore.

My nose and throat feel like someone has taken to them with a scrubbing brush. And so much snot. But I have changed out of PJs (into trackies and oodie). Working up to a walk outside in the sun

*🎼The problem's plain to see
Too much technology
Machines to save our lives
Machines dehumanize 🎶🎶*

Felt like the pits at 7:30am but a bit more sleep, water, Nurofen and sweating it out and I am getting better again. The sun is absolutely helping. It's an automatic immune booster.

Airing the house out to clear the cloud of sickly miasma that's built up over the week. Chugging so much liquid. Please let this be the beginning of the end, I can't take any more of the coughing and sinus headaches. Was coughing to the point of almost throwing up yesterday. My neighbours must hate me 😬

Good night everyone. 😺😘

Heading home today from my house and dog sitting duties. I thought I was going to be back in a few months for longer but it seems like my parents are going to cancel their upcoming Vegas trip.

This does open the door of possibility for me... I could go somewhere. I shall ponder. Ponder I shall.

Bahhhhhhh

Trying to introduce Chappell Roan to my MIL; we're both bi, she has to get on board dammit lol jk jk

Operation salvaging chilli paste.

Fuck it stinks.

Braved Aldi this afternoon as the cats have suddenly decided they don't want cat food anymore, they want chicken and (sometimes) mince. I also got them pet roo stuff... We shall see.
Forgot the bloody stock cubes but did remember the ingredients for red wine and mushroom risotto, so with that one I can use Vegemite as it turns out brownish anyway.
Anyway Zooks greeted her chicken with loud purrs, so I'm good there!

I have finally completed a long-avoided task and identified and sorted out my sewing machine feet. Some of the vintage ones took a bit of sleuthing to figure out what they are. The mechanical complexity of some of the old attachments is extremely impressive.

It's that time again after sleeping in longer than usual. quiz

For a sick day it was reasonably productive. Had a walk in the sun. Picked some some anti-snot drugs. Did a tidy up of the lounge room and about to clean off the kitchen bench. And watched more of Swedish death cleaning.

Here we go! We're about to get thumped. 💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍

Tender Mercies - Glen Hansard and Eddie Vedder.

When Eddie toured years ago, he had Glen Hansard as his support. I got tickets at the last minute. I got stuck in traffic and couldn't find a park in St Kilda and walked into Glen Hansard ripping it out full ball on his last song. I was wanting so much to see him play, and I only got the last song. I'd seen him play the Recital Centre and he was just phenomenal. If you're ever able to see him, it's worth it .... Eddie was great, but I was actually looking forward to Glen Hansard more. They then recorded this album (which I think is a film soundtrack), that features this song.

FYI - the Aldi Buffalo Style Cauliflower Wings rock! I'm having them with mayo - would recommend. Brand is Urban Eats.

sewing has commenced, boring relaxing podcast is on

crumpets have been made

this is one of my fave movie soundtracks, the music is so haunting while at the same time it lives and breathes . It evokes all the feels. Revenant. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMb8JesOrYw&list=PLRW80bBvVD3VyhK9FrR3yr7facvJSoNWg
