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.
Cats love custard. Melbcat used to like the dairy free egg custard I’d make. Gotta be careful that it’s real vanilla though as imitation vanilla can be toxic to cats.
My fun cat cleaning moments were wiping at yellow ear wash runoff stains and oily brown liquid medicine on white fur
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
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.
That was the situation with my watch. There are two places I usually put my watches and it was in neither of them so I couldn't find it. Then I'm looking for a USB cable that will actually transfer data and there it is in a bag with all this other stuff
I am big into storing things in a systematic way so everything is easy to find and nothing is lost, my husband likes everything to be out or maybe he is just lazy
My girlfriend wants to be like this but it doesn't fully happen. She also goes and cleans up all my stuff when the back part of the house is a complete mess and that's all her mother's stuff that could mostly be gotten rid of
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
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". ☺
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.
Get the openwrt core router working, taken apart and old school serial hacked a tplink to get the first WAP up and running, get it integrated, go to do the second one and...motherfuuuuuu i did not check the version number it is unsupported
my place hasn't been cleaner for a long time but it's untidy because of all the sorting and chucking out of stuff and the furniture restoring , drives me nuts
so I suppose I'm saying, how can people take just a few hours to clean the whole house? I seem to do so much housework but it's never clean and tidy
It's just me and Gibson so it's fairly easy to clean. I'll be moving to a smaller place later this year, and I'm looking forward to less rooms to clean.
And also not living next to crack heads, not having insulation, closer to civilisation and paying less per month.
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.
I just watched All Shall Be Well which broke my heart and made me angry but also really made me want a sumptuous HK spread and mooncake 😭 please help chef
Went down to the Burnley Brewing taproom for their closing down takeaways sale. Filled my little 9.5L homebrew keg with IPA at $5/L and bought three cases of cans too.
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.
House clean (mostly), still need to scrub the shower and fold laundry but that can happen tomorrow as that’s enough housework for one day. Enjoying an arvo coffee in the sun (it’s turned out to be a pretty nice day), going to get a quick workout in before dinner out tonight.
ffs, Ted Cat is a smoke persian and so godamn fluffy. So very cute but he bites and claws the whole time when I brush him, I wear gloves now, and he is a bit of a stinky dag. Def not a neeb cat like Bill.
Chilli seeds are in on the prop. heat mat. This year (hopefully if they germinate) it will be just thai, habs and birdseye (if they overwintered).
Today's major thing is digging over the soil that's been trampled and compacted from doing the retaining wall. Soil is uneven af now and there's a fair bit of it and I'm running outta radox and ibuprofen.
I was hoping to see Psycroptic tonight but the show sold out. I don't buy tickets in advance much anymore in case the kids are a nightmare to put to sleep but they went down well enough tonight.
These are the risks you take, and good on the boys from Tassie for selling out their Melbourne shows
More stuff has been taken out to the courtyard for neighbours to take if they want
best find is a real italian stainless steel pasta maker with the attachments and instruction booklet . It was expensive when I bought it. But I'll never use it again and it's taking up space.
Murano vases are worth a bit of money (I have a collection of paperweights). Lucky neighbours! We put out a box of lemons a couple of days ago and most are still sitting there 🤔 most peculiar, they're usually gone pretty swiftly. Last year a woman pulled up when we had about 3 wheelbarrows full after the tree was pruned and grabbed several grocery bags full.

Cheerful morning people should be shot and fed to the early bird
I'm gonna be cheerful if all my body parts are working as they should. Ya gotta take the small wins.
I’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.
I was once at a multi day camping event and some guy had the audacity to skip to the breakfast tent. Outrageous!
Totally outrageous.
No one has the right to be so cheerful without a cup of coffee.
Oh the audacity!
COMPUTER SAYS NOOOO
Jinx! I've been watching trashy police cam vids and all I have been thinking the past few days is Vicki Pollard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zExc6SK4kpA

When you are just trying to play a card game
With a pretty face like that doggo won.
So who won?
He did cos that's his smiley face.
Yay 🙆♀️
This is the way!
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.
tbh I'd take the kelpie, cat in question is a longhair and it was on her belly
we need the back story on this
I was eating a snotblock, cat was interested, sniff sniff, paw paw, glob of custard down her front.
Oh dear. Pretty sure I already told the beetrooted white cat tale.
I tell my Pepper that she has a creamy custard belly, but she doesn't take it literally!
Seconded 🙋🏻♀️
Thirded.

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.
That's a great innings for back then!
My great grandad died when i was 16. Original ANZAC and all
My grandfather was the Anzac. He served in both world wars. He passed away before I was born, though.
He was an absolute larrikin, there are loads of stories about him. He was famous in his hometown, is mentioned in its history etc.
I'd share highlights, but it'd probably doxx me. 😂
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.

That was the situation with my watch. There are two places I usually put my watches and it was in neither of them so I couldn't find it. Then I'm looking for a USB cable that will actually transfer data and there it is in a bag with all this other stuff
Reading this is making me twitchy.
I am big into storing things in a systematic way so everything is easy to find and nothing is lost, my husband likes everything to be out or maybe he is just lazy
Rule in our house is if it's not yours don't fucking touch it. Make the other person clean that shit.
Dishes? fine. Old beer/coke cans? Fine. Work bag? In his office. Paperwork / watch / gym stuff? "go put your shit away dude"
I'm pretty tolerant until half the plates and cutlery are still in there and the mess/dirt starts tracking into the rest of the house
My girlfriend wants to be like this but it doesn't fully happen. She also goes and cleans up all my stuff when the back part of the house is a complete mess and that's all her mother's stuff that could mostly be gotten rid of
Google Maps vs Royal Parade
Yes, it's always a silly experience having voice navigation on down Royal Pde...
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
It’s a slippery slope. We fed ours at the table once and the pestering then continued for years
You also have lying Hobbits I see…
They never lied, merely inquired about second breakfast
I wish I was able to do more stuff
Good mornin', starshine
The Earth says, "WAZZZZZUP!"

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". ☺
There was no talking to them but you are right. I advised them next time to not stop and just to ignore them.
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.
House is clean. Time to crank the amp!
Gibson got a new wand toy today, so let's see if she completely ignores it as usual lol
What's playing? Edit: oh, you playing guitar?
Yep. I play guitar, sing and record/make music on PC.
If you want to hear any, let me know and I'll post a track or 2.
I also vote yes please, love to hear your creations
Yeah, post 'em if you got 'em!
I vote yes, plz.
That's it! The heater is going on.
Same. Electricity bill ain't so bad with a job.
Yep, mine is cranked.

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
my place hasn't been cleaner for a long time but it's untidy because of all the sorting and chucking out of stuff and the furniture restoring , drives me nuts
so I suppose I'm saying, how can people take just a few hours to clean the whole house? I seem to do so much housework but it's never clean and tidy

You went to the gym, that is something and it's awesome. 🙂
I almost totally forgot about this song. The inevitable end remix was epic.
Just finished putting together one of those Kmart trolleys.
I feel like I've been stomped on by a troupe of tapdancers.

No than you, I'll let them air

I guess I have no plans, so I plan to drink thissss boiii
Looks nice! I like imbue; when I used to drink I tried their sunflower vodka and elixir gin liqueur, both of which I really enjoyed.
My sternum is sore.
Plz explain.
In other news I am suitably stuffed from lunch and I’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.
Too much chest puffing. You're far too awesome for your own good
Ahahaha. <3
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.
Went down to the Burnley Brewing taproom for their closing down takeaways sale. Filled my little 9.5L homebrew keg with IPA at $5/L and bought three cases of cans too.
A fantastic loot to haul home from your successful quest for booze!
I took my 19L keg too, but they weren't as keen on that, which is fair. I still have about 15L of Rice Lager I brewed to get through anyway.
Oh ! I found my spirit animal.
Do you homebrew as well? Or just, also like me, keen on all forms of booze? 😋
I don’t homebrew but, I enjoy IPA’s exclusively. West Coast style.
WCIPAFTW!
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.
That and you are still recovering yourself! Feet up and rest woman!
2 hours of work at home done.
Night do more later if I’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!
I felt like I got the same amount despite trying to go to bed early last night.
Didn’t feel rested when I woke up.
I'm not drunk. You're drunk!
I know you are, but what am I?
Potato
"Oh, really?" inches towards utensil draw
Am I ? Says eho?
I'm not. But i do have kabana waves
Your team was way ahead of mine don't worry
House clean (mostly), still need to scrub the shower and fold laundry but that can happen tomorrow as that’s enough housework for one day. Enjoying an arvo coffee in the sun (it’s turned out to be a pretty nice day), going to get a quick workout in before dinner out tonight.
Found ginger at a reasonable price for first time in yonks. Brew on!

Big rain hitting Ballarat and heading this way. windy.com
Oh deary me….
Awesome! Love the rain.
I thought Deadpool was weird. I just watched Barbie 😵💫
barbie just started throwing shit in halfway through and tbh lost me at the song and dance sequence
Back to oblivion. Stupid saints got up and rolled my team over.
Tv back to a blank channel before their team song plays.
Yes I’m filthy right now.
Carn the Saints!!
I don't hate in real life, but Geelong fans can suck it and choke on it.
It’s all in good fun even if I’m a nuffy.
I’m happy enough to have seen 4 premierships in my lifetime.
How many have you seen? 😃
Championship? What's that?
Chilli seeds are in on the prop. heat mat. This year (hopefully if they germinate) it will be just thai, habs and birdseye (if they overwintered).
Today's major thing is digging over the soil that's been trampled and compacted from doing the retaining wall. Soil is uneven af now and there's a fair bit of it and I'm running outta radox and ibuprofen.
sends over care package of both
Mmm raspberry jam. So yummy.
mwa. mwahaha mwahahahahhaa. It's not mesh, but they're all gigabit backhauled so it's rather better than mesh.
I also printed myself an impossible cone which my cat views with deep, non-euclidean suspicion
I am stealing that phrase. Non-euclidean suspicion is a doozy.
I was hoping to see Psycroptic tonight but the show sold out. I don't buy tickets in advance much anymore in case the kids are a nightmare to put to sleep but they went down well enough tonight.

best find is a real italian stainless steel pasta maker with the attachments and instruction booklet . It was expensive when I bought it. But I'll never use it again and it's taking up space.
also a small murano vase
Murano vases are worth a bit of money (I have a collection of paperweights). Lucky neighbours! We put out a box of lemons a couple of days ago and most are still sitting there 🤔 most peculiar, they're usually gone pretty swiftly. Last year a woman pulled up when we had about 3 wheelbarrows full after the tree was pruned and grabbed several grocery bags full.
most murano nowadays is made in thailand ...lol. This is nothing special.
My real venini, cenedese and nason are staying put
