Found something online that I've been looking for. I've been watching ebay etc for about 2 years and it finally came up.
Fuuuuuuck. Yeeeeeesssssss
It's a music thing lol. You can't buy it in store in Australia and they only make a few dozen a year in batches.
Found a cactus I got as a kid 30 yrs ago randomly in the old unused wood bbq. Never been fed / watered still kicking and looking ridiculous in that pot. Repotted it and that was always gonna hurt :( went straight through the gloves.
And anothery of the blossom (I'm obsessed by it I know). Nother week should be full tilt:
Ooh that's a good idea. I was impressed how easily it went straight through those leather gloves.
I purchased a little old nonna wheely trolley for my groceries today. I actually owned one ages ago but gave it away when I last moved...next minute...landed with no car and have been walking again for ages. My shoulders thank me.
My day was spent pottering, walking, rearranging pot plants and chatting on the phone. I really needed a day like that.
A stall holder at the vic market told me trolley shoppers get good deals because they are known to be regulars and locals. 🙂
6/8 assessments passed.
Waiting for my last two pracs to be assessed and then I can relax. I've just been pottering around, pacing, telling myself to not expect marks on the weekend, but I'm anxious.
I just need validation that I am smart, and not a total lost cause 😭
Made a version of kedgeree to scratch that tinned fish and rice itch. I cook the rice with the fish in an attempt to get more flavour imbued. It's alright if I say so myself. The cardamom is doing a lot of heavy lifting

Too lazy sorry. I've been patiently waiting for cafe to open and I'm going there now
What a beautiful day! Got the Minipeelers out for a walk and saw many cute dogs. When I explained my reasons and feelings about why we can't get a dog right now they actually were very reasonable and accepted it 😅
There doesn't even seem to be violent wind to counteract it! Maybe it'll actually be nice today?
Meeting a new band tomorrow which is awesome! Beautiful day today which is perfect for a lunch at the lake near my house with mates.
Hope everyone has a great day ❤️
Took a long drive on a glorious day, went to a cheese train right as a dog parade came through the door, ate many delicious cheesy things and finished an audio book. Today was wonderful.
Yeah! I'd never been, but apparently there's also one somewhere in Western Melbourne. It was a fun, tasty experience!
How did I just fall asleep on the couch for like four hours. After already nodding off intermittently this morning. I am not a habitual daytime sleeper but this is the third weekend in a row it's happened now. I don't like this fatigue. It's not even the weather, it looked glorious outside today...
Seems like magpies are learning bad habits from humans.
Just watched one casually cross the road slowly
without any care for the world. Didn't even fly away when I approached it in the car, simply brushed off the encounter when I had to drive around it.
Meds are late but the girl is hiding in one of her cubbies… she needs it soon but I don’t want to invade her safe place (or drag her out). I prepped the syringes ready to go and will wait a little bit to see if she emerges.
I think today is just going to be video games and cuddles.
I don’t think cuddles are on the cards now… she didn’t come out so I ended up having to stick my arms into her cardboard box cubby and give her both medicines by feel. Spilled part of it and made her extremely unhappy.
Ah it's okay, we gotta do what we gotta do for our furry family, even if they don't understand why.
You waited until you couldn't, and I think the way you did was as low stress as possible, you didn't pull her out of her cubby.
You're looking after her wonderfully, friend. She'll forgive you for any spills 💜
It was bad though. Maybe it would have been (slightly) better if I had pulled her out?
She had her back to the tiny entrance I was coming in through (and blocking) so was literally cornered and trapped. My fingers and the medicine syringe were probably going near her eyes because I had to do it by touch. She was freaking out.
I’ve patted her and apologised, explained how I had waited a while to try and avoid it but the longer she went without the worse she would have felt… but I knew it was traumatic and I’d try to avoid doing that again. She seems to have settled.
Hm idk I still think the way you did it was better than pulling her out, but also you know her better than I do, so maybe if shes in there again you can pull her out and see which reaction indicates less stress.
You are doing great, don't doubt yourself. 💜
I would have lured her out with food but she was entrenched and hasn’t been big on wet food (and only mildly enthusiastic with treats)
That deep inaccessible cubby may have to be removed when she’s in hiding mode. (The more open ones can remain.)
That's my main hayfever symptom. I've found if I use Nasonex spray and take an antihistamine every day I barely notice any problems, but if I don't keep up with it consistently over spring my eyes get very irritated and watery.

I've never gotten hayfever before (at least that I'm aware of), but the outside of my nose has been in a constant state of itchiness recently. Can't figure out what else could be causing it, so maybe I'm a mild fever guy now
Instead of doing anything constructive I should be doing I spent the morning shopping online for embroidery cottons and some additions to make my thread stand more user friendly. I would like to know why, when I already own so many different colours of cotton, I always struggle to find the right colours for every new pattern I do?
