Buenas Noches all. I came here cos it was linked from the old reddit one which is alright sometimes but has some trollers. I see some names from the old lockdown days and pre-reddit "protest" purge. Hope you guise are all well.

Getting there! One bed's soil is fluffed up and looking pretty. Added some dynamic lifter too for good measure. Soil will subside a bit so going to throw on somefing on top and give it a another scratch before spring.

That bed has never been more empty. Feels good to have a clean start. Also felt good standing on that retaining wall on the right with all my weight and it didn't budge.

Cheerful morning people should be shot and fed to the early bird

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 9 points 1 month ago

I'm gonna be cheerful if all my body parts are working as they should. Ya gotta take the small wins.

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 8 points 1 month ago

Iโ€™m not a morning person, some of my friends are very cheerful in the morning and as much as I love them I always want to strangle them at times.

welp, today I learned first hand just how hard it is to get vanilla slice custard off a cat

Peanut butter off a kelpie's back - I've been there. Not fun for anyone involved.

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 7 points 1 month ago

I was eating a snotblock, cat was interested, sniff sniff, paw paw, glob of custard down her front.

[-] Catfish@aussie.zone 9 points 1 month ago

Oh dear. Pretty sure I already told the beetrooted white cat tale.

Finally found all my micro USB cables, and a watch I've got looking for about a month or so.

My girlfriend will collect things up in a grocery bag and dump it in the front room, or even on my desk, when she wants to clean and feel productive.

Unfortunately that just moves a bunch of unrelated things into a bag together that becomes harder to go through and I lose things because nothing is in a place that makes sense anymore

[-] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 8 points 1 month ago

Ugh Mr P does the grocery bag thing too, just takes everything he feels is superfluous to the room, bag it up or toss it into random containers and dump it in a cupboard or under a bed. I hate it as it then becomes a separate more involved job to go through all the containers and bags and put stuff away like it should have been.

Hearing one of the kids on the hockey team introduce his great-grandma to my son. Totally wild. My great grandmother lived 1867-1952.

I didn't even really get the grandparent experience as a kid, let alone great-grandparents.

[-] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 7 points 1 month ago

1867-1952

That's a great innings for back then!

wiggles on bed alongside a pair of wiggly cats

They got breakfast when i had a five am pee, but they managed to swindle a second breakfast on Friday so now they're being extra coquettish in hopes of a repeat performance

Itโ€™s a slippery slope. We fed ours at the table once and the pestering then continued for years

My kid and her friends encountered some cookers today so they stopped, read their little signs, had a giggle then as they moved on yelled "you are all a bunch of morons". โ˜บ

Whoo, what a long day. Out to the city for movie, chat with friend, lunch at a HK cafe to satiate my cravings (Ovaltine! And yu xiang eggplant and you tiao), then sitting with my friend for hours of driving as she just bought a car and only recently got her licence and wanted to practice driving various routes including all the way across town... had a video call with a family member in between... I'm ready for bed now honestly. Also it's cold again. zzzzzz.

[-] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 8 points 1 month ago

Cleaning the house top to bottom. It's a big place and it's so easy to ignore until it's too messy.

Not exactly exciting, but necessary

4/5 stars. Food is great if you ever get it, skilled and charismatic chef, but chef sometimes falls asleep after opening the food truck resulting in multi-hour delays. Worth the wait if you have nothing on.

Still not really anything done today. Lots of sleep deprivation related blues. But at least I went to the gym. We shall persist. There is another chance tomorrow.

Another eBay item sold. If my postage calculations are correct I am now $12 richer in money and one shoe-box size richer in space.

[-] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 7 points 1 month ago

So tired today. I only worked 2 days this week but they were pretty physical days and I'm knackered. Managed to get a load of laundry done and the kitchen cleaned. Forgot I've been playing nurse to covid sufferers this past week, which has been oddly stressful and emotionally tiring. I just feel spent.

My sternum is sore.

Plz explain.

In other news I am suitably stuffed from lunch and Iโ€™m up for le mini-golf this evening. Still buggered from Uni, but otherwise excited.

I have now been relegated to my much loved Savoys, but fear I have fallen in love with Jatz.

House clean (mostly), still need to scrub the shower and fold laundry but that can happen tomorrow as thatโ€™s enough housework for one day. Enjoying an arvo coffee in the sun (itโ€™s turned out to be a pretty nice day), going to get a quick workout in before dinner out tonight.

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago

2 hours of work at home done.

Night do more later if Iโ€™m in the mood to free up my Monday work at home day.

Been doing them in 30 mins bursts today through the day.

Now for some footy and game time!
