Don’t look at it as a bad thing, you did something productive, - the paperwork getting sorted. Still a win.

Thought I’d set up my digital drivers license. Yes I’m late to the party. So I go into to vic services app, then a couple of menus later, find something that says ‘digital licence’. Select it, it’s a link to services web page which says; to get a licence you need to get the services app. I really do not have not brain power for this government paradox loop right now, will try to figure it out tomorrow.

Can’t sleep, but I’m tired. Humph.

These sound amazing, I’m gonna try it!

Broccoli is the messiest vegetable to chop. The little bits of the florets that shed off go everywhere and smear if you apply the wrong pressure at cleanup.

I don’t often drive in the city, but when I do I’m always shocked by the number of food delivery scooters and bikes. Why get delivery when all you need to do is go down the lift and walk a block or 2? Would be a good reason to stretch your legs. I live in the burbs so walkable city convenience seems pretty fancy to me.

Glad you’re ok!

Have you tried buckwheat porridge? It’s commonly eaten in eastern European countries, where it’s called Kasha. Buckwheat is not related to wheat, it’s gluten free.

I remember Michael Mosley did something on this a few years ago. It’s only effective when eaten, supplements don’t work. Something about heat activated or fats to absorb it. So just enjoy some curries instead! Huh I actually found it Tumeric

Birdbath has frozen. Hope the birds have ice skates.

It’s been a tiring week. Had a nice meal tonight and I have eaten much cheese. Now I’m gonna either watch tv or read something, but I’m doing it from bed with the electric blanket on.

 

This year I grew tomatoes, and found rats are stealing them. I am certain it’s rats because I have seen them. Have tried netting the tomato plants, but rats found ways in. Called an exterminator to bait in the roof and under house. Feel ambivalent about it, because if a predator bird takes an affected rat it may get ill. But I’m located deep in suburbia and have never seen an owl or eagle so I think it’s unlikely. Didn’t work though, still have rats. Have given up on the tomatoes, plants are destroyed. What are your strategies for ridding yourself of ratty pestilences?
