Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was Oh no, not again. Many people have speculated that if we knew exactly why the bowl of petunias had thought that we would know a lot more about the nature of the universe than we do now.

Up. Have taken day off as I needed to get vampired for endocrinologist appointment next week. I hate having blood drawn when fasting - I NEED COFFEE (or tea).

I just got back from mine. I got scolded for fasting 14 hours instead of 12 🥺

The Young Seagoons had friends over last night for game night. It was nice to hear healthy laughter. 😊

I've been really good with my lowish carb, no sugar, anti-inflammatory diet and feeling much better. Was out at dinner with a friend last night so had a little splurge of gf pasta and three wines. Up half the night with heart palpitations and hot flushes. I'm guessing it was glucose spiking. Cross that off the list I guess. For now at least

Hot in the middle of the night is such a pest. Is it me, is it the doona, do I have a horrid Thing??

I have made a terrible mistake, need to reexamine my life, and look up bleaching fingernails.

Dip them in blue food colouring up to the first knuckle, and claim you are so cool you are role-playing frostbite.

most food based dyes actually fade under sunlight. Blew my husbands mind when I showed him how to unstain a silicon pouch he'd stuck pasta sauce in.

I know I've mentioned the Negging Technician here before, but this week I've realised just how much he puts me on edge. I am so thankful that I have a manager and colleagues that take me seriously in a situation they themselves are not exposed to. But, I fear for the women who do not have that same luxury.

so many hugs

if people are putting you on edge on purpose, and when you say something they don't change, that is aggression

I protect myself professionally by just requesting access to every document I come across. I've seen the memes about saying you've started something, then when you actually get around to it realising you didn't have access the whole time.

So I just request access to everything. Doesn't matter if I need it. The people on the other end think I'm interested in everything, and I'll never get caught out in the "Request Access" trap again

Promising.... the petunias look pretty good, bowl does not. Off to the shops for glucose I guess.

I'm not looking forwards to Pauline's big surprise next month... And I'm shocked that most people aren't actively warning others it's a huge possibility. As is a Liberal party running Victoria.
