Melbourne

Today is fucking rough. Personal reasons but yeah.

Defs down in the dumps.

Hello start of summer - heater is on ❄️

omg, Ted loves watching the new Frankenstein movie 😻🧟 I'll get a pic

It is December. The tree is going up

So the cattery messaged me and said I'll find out if I got the job by the end of the day Wednesday, because another applicant had to delay their trial shift.

Now me arriving 10 minutes early to mine looks real good methinks 🙏

Edit: I want be Ron Swanson, but really I'm the Eurotrash he hates 😂

Sometimes I get so bored at work that I do actual work.

Husband. I might use the big vacuum cleaner in my office.

Me. It's good to use the big one sometimes as the robot doesn't get the edges well.

Husband. The robot doesn't clean in here.

Me. Do you bring it in, do you switch it on

Husband. No.

Me. Then how can it can clean.

Pakidge!

I decided I wasn't happy with how well the food processor kneads bread dough and decided to get a bread maker. It also gives me another option for making yoghurt which is a good thing, I usually make it in the rice cooker and some times I want to make both rice and yoghurt and things get awkward.

Myers had the model I got on special, so I price matched it with Appliances Online and bought it through them. It's funny to think when I was growing up Myers was considered a top store with great service and now I'd prefer not to buy from them if I can avoid it and don't really trust their customer service to be up to scratch. How the world has changed.

Welcome back YarraByte, hope you're feeling ok.

This hot dry weather coming is just the thing I need so I can clean the wool rugs and hang them out.

Am missing the beach but too tired and it's a bit wild out there still

Tried to get some rainbow photos. Didn't capture all the colours, but turned out interestingly to me.

For a rainbow to happen, there needs to be a storm.

Nice thread YarraByte, spin me a yarn

It's coming down hard out there and there's sunshine.

The last coat of paint has gone on the lawnmower. I failed to keep the paint off my hands this time, so I'm now sprorting yellow spots. We should have a couple of mostly dry days coming up so I'll be able to get out and cut the grass and see how much difference to new sharp blades make.

Ditching the polyfil doona for 100% natural is the best sleep thing I've done in forever! It's not totally hormonal bullshit, it's not cooking yourself in a plastic bag every night

My girlfriend tried to use her laptop to look at some Black Friday stuff last night and she's just getting sick of how slow it is. It 'upgraded' itself to W11 a while ago and that's part of her problem. The other one is probably that it's only running on 8gb RAM.

I think she wants to run a debloater finally but I may get her to covert over to Linux completely. If I did she would actually be more all in on Linux than me, I still have Windows on one of the drives of my main computer.

Operation UnKAOS is going really well.

I have learnt to not let mission creep eat up my time.

So what is everyone doing on this very rainy day? 🌧️☔🙂

A few more yellow poppies are out and the vermilion nasturtiums are rioting. They don’t seem to need any help so I’ll leave them be. Boring.

I want to buy some water soluble oils but don’t know how to dispose safely of the wash water, don’t know what to do if cleaning or thinning does require linseed oil, and honestly I don’t think I can shift myself to actually use them.

Depressed as fuck and art blocked to the point I don’t even want to practice 😔 Can’t even pick up a pencil and practice.

Sorting through jewellery I have bought, repaired and jewellery findings for bad parts that might be made with toxic metals.

a lot of things I buy are not cheap and they are just fake , they even fake safety certs

throwing out some new things, 😠remaking some and substituting with safe old parts

Nothing like some sneaky 15c hail 1st day of summer.

edit now it's sunny weee

edit 2 nope more hail lol

How is it December already?

Not sure if the tree is going up in this house because I have a dog that pees on almost any corner he is capable of lifting his leg on
