Cause I was away last Monday, I booked in a pre-class catch-up with the teacher so I don't miss anything. It's a pretty cruisy unit, so I could've figured it out from tonight's class, but I don't want to get lost. That does mean I basically have an extra hour's worth of class, but oh well

Also, I have been freaked out about a dozen times checking my course progress and seeing that one of the assessments due today doesn't have the little checkmark to tell me I've finished it. I'm like "ah shit did I miss one", then click on it and I've already done it and passed

I logged a ticket, and I love their priority levels. One of them is "EXTREME! CRITICAL! EMERGENCY! I CAN NOT WORK UNTIL THIS IS FIXED!". Anyway, when they responded, they fixed it on the spot and even included smiley faces in their email. That's lovely. I like that. Not exactly sure what the issue was, but they sent me an email to say they could tell what was wrong from my screenshots, then 5 minutes later sent a follow up to say they fixed it

As far as trees go the Myer one is pretty great. I thought it would be cute to give the toddler a job to do: handing out the baubles. Worked great for about three minute till he got annoyed that we were going too slow and started chucking them around the room and ripping the ones off the tree.

He keeps taking the dog ones to the dogs to show them their photos.

EDIT: sorry realized one of the decorations had names on it.

Kidcalhoon2's left ear piercing is constantly getting infected. Not their right ear, not once. Salt spray will clear it up, but then will be back in a month. Surgical steel and everything.... Could they get an allergic reaction just in one piercing?

Edit. Thanks for all the comments. I've got a feeling these ones were chemist bought. Also they do sleep more on that side so that could be part of it too

gold hoop sleeper, no studs, use alcohol , do not take earring off for a month or so as it just scratches the piercing open again, let it heal

and don't touch or play with earring or lobe with hands

Pretty unlikely to be allergic, but you could try gold or titanium. The pillowcase theory sounds probable. I've 13 piercings in my ears, usually only have trouble with them if I get sick and don't wash my hair enough.

I think it’s definitely getting a little late to sow the cherry tomato seeds, and maybe even the pumpkin ones too… :(

Feeling bored, shitty and constrained. Weirdly devastated for some reason

Nah I think its still fine. Tomato season has run late these last few years and pumpkins will still grow in late summer. Sprinkle them into soil now. Keep them moist this week and see what happens.

Ahh Melbcat was unusually spicy last vet visit so she only got her Solensia… her shot of B12 is overdue https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rPIt52BwTak

I’ve called the vet and set this in motion, it looks like I am going to have to overcome my needle phobia and learn to give them at home

Monday is dream walking day.
