Yarrabyte has clearly celebrated a little too hard again. Must order some more beroccas, they'll need them and I've run out of the hair of the dog.

Road has been tripped, birthday person birthday'd. Smoke washed out of sinuses and tent drying. Kitties predictably broke into the food robot. Way too much time spent near Boyo's horrendous ex whom we were unaware would be in attendance. Hilarious small child not taught the meaning of the word Fucknugget 😝

teach them fartweasel. They can't get in trouble for that one per se, there's no rude words....but it'll piss the parents off no end

I’m going to use that at work, for when I have to be proper and not swear

I have finally submitted a slightly overdue assignment for my course. It's pretty rough, it's the last subject and I've really lost interest now. I just need to do one more assignment well enough to pass the subject and the Diploma is done though. I am looking forward to not having any more assignment deadlines hanging over my head.

Today I did 10,704 steps. I took the Minipeelers shopping for a gift for their dad (it's MrExPeelers birthday in a week or so) and we wandered all around Northland. When we got home I saw I'd done almost 8,000 steps, so I got out my trusty hand weights and did some step core and upper body exercises combined until I kicked it over the 10,000. Normally when I come home from an adventure with the kids I'm exhausted and want to go have a lie down, but my strength and endurance is slowly improving. Also my t-shirts seem to fit better. Yes! 💪🏼
-
Shopping is great cardio!
-
I’ve been meaning to start doing weights and am inspired by your progress

Hair of the dog is something I have plenty of, anyone in need is welcome to grab some!
-
Wonderful! Please sling some my way.

And I've picked up a cold from the 9mn old niece. The green snot should have clued me in, but I would have appreciated some warning from BIL 🤦♀️
-
Children = magic germ collectors. Not a fun Pokémon

BIL and his wife would be quite shitty if we didn't attend the BBQ they're having at FILs place. So I'll go with a mask on and tissues up my nose and we'll see how they feel then 😂

 don't exist.
In-laws gotta stick together I guess 😂 it would be easier if they didn't talk over us tbh.
I do love them, sincerely, but we're just accessories I guess 😂

God practice is so tiring. 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 over and over with the metronome.
Gah.
-
It is, but I'm sure it will be worth it!
-
It had definitely paid off, I try to keep reminding myself of that when my brain feels like it’s going to leak out of my ears lol

Anyone know of good places to scream at the top of your lungs?
-
Whilst doing laps at the local pool....plus you get a bonus fitness point
-
I suggest in the car (maybe not in traffic) or underwater
Also, hope you’re doing ok
-
Cheers. I'm okay thanks, just have to let off some steam.

Pity the footy season is over, I always found it ideal!
-
Into a microphone (at a rehearsal room, very cheap during the day).
-
I screamed in my car earlier today, and it was justified. The world was TESTING me today.
-
-
40/50 yayyy!! I must be a kid at heart.

I hit our luggage suitcase last night and hurt my little toe. Now it's bruised and it hurts to walk a bit. I'm not sure if that means it's broken or not, but at least today will involve a bit of driving and not walking

When Melbcat went to the sunspot in the other room I sunscreened her nose and quickly changed the bedding. Then I took the chance to vacuum behind the bed and bedside table, and re-scrub a stubborn spot where a drink had spilled.
I had to use the loud vacuum and the scented carpet cleaner plus keep the furniture off so the carpet could dry (towels then air). Melbcat came in really quickly to investigate though. She’s stressed about the rearrangement and tried to walk on the damp chemicals 😩
I’ve put a towel down with the furniture over it now and multiple windows and doors have been cracked the whole time to air out the perfume. Oh man it stinks. I have the kitty inhaler ready and will probably keep the fans on overnight.
My back definitely has an opinion about today.
-
Blerghhhhhh :(
Edit: ok enough sooking. Off to the gym lol
-
The black cat has been hanging around my place heaps and I’m not sure why. Is it the water, is he hunting, is he being social?
I can’t work out if he needs help but I can’t feed him or let him in.
-
Pots got a bit dry but there are sproots.
I wish I had more energy for constructive activities
-
I wish there was more good stuff on Tubi. I could try to crack into one of the books lying around but am kind of mentally tired and also can’t really crochet while I read if I wanted to.
-
Audiobooks?
-
Maybe. I’m feeling scattered and picky

Now that I don't have the looming deadline of an assignment to avoid I've started my cross stitch again. One of the kits is on black fabric and is counted instead of printed directly on the fabric so I can only manage short bursts when there is not too much distraction and I am not too tired. I'm just about at the point it needs to go away and I'll work on the easier one instead for a while. The easy one also has the advantage that it involves cats.

My aunt is trying to give me unsolicited dating advice. She is only about 15 years older than me, but the advice reads baby boomer. The man should pay, buy you flowers, open your car door, spoil you. What if I want to spoil a man? What if I don't even end up dating a man?
Her credentials include being in a ten year unfulfilling relationship and now a six month one where the guy has paid for mostly everything. I don't know anything about the guy, except he makes money and takes her out to dinner. Her view is that I'm a coward because I want to grow into myself more before I date someone. I think you should be mostly happy with yourself before you date someone, or you've got a big fat lesson in self-love coming your way. Haha
I used to grow flowers to give to an ex of mine. She and her mum always complimented that they last so long. When she found out I didn't buy them she didn't like them any more lol.
Wow, that would make me love them even more! I've been wanting to grow more flowers for ages. Extended family are currently growing waratahs in the backyard and they are gorgeous.
Hahaha Jesus Christ man.
What? Growing flowers is loads more effort than just buying them.
If I pay $60 for a bunch of flowers, that's something like 1-2 hours work. Growing them? No idea how long that takes, but I bet it's longer than that.
I have always, and will always look for an equal.
Not a slave at my whim nor a monarch who requires tribute.
This. It shits me when people think men should do all the "charming".
Be careful of these types. She might try to sneakily set you up with some rando just so you ‘have someone’. Because they pity single people and think that’s doing you a favour.
Be careful of doing that too unless you want to pick up a hobosexual. Which you don’t. (Btw they come in every gender.)
Staying single and growing into yourself is a really good option.
Thanks.
I don't think she'd be that bad but she did say she would swipe for me if I had dating apps. No thanks.
Today I learnt what a hobosexual was. Definitely won't fall into the trap of becoming a sugar mummy hahaha. shudders
