I saw that. Made my day.
Jaffle, what a gorgeous pup!!
she really is the best 🙂
Clean slate for the veg patch:
Looks like good / better soil. Last year wasn’t so crash hot so here’s hoping.
Nice. Planning on possum proofing?
Pretty sure I lost that battle a few moons ago :(
Two out of three of the big work projects kicking my arse for twelve months have been delivered!! One on Tues and one today. There’ll be a review and presso but all the heavy lifting is done. Project 3 needs some final lovin’ but will be all but done next week. Don’t want to talk about what they are but they are good stuff and will result in good information out there that wasn’t before. So proud of my little group of nerds.
Can’t wait for some rest and digest. Next six months all about getting unkaosed and strong again 💪🏻
It feels so good when things like that are finally out of the way
Victory!!!
Partner is doing a 12 week internship in Sydney in a few months. 🥳
That sounds awesome.
I wish him great success. 💐
It’s so exciting! Will miss him but it’s only Sydney and I’ve been wanting to go back since I went a few years ago.
Its a nice reason to visit.
In about an hour, one of my favourite bands is going to be playing their only show in Melbourne.
I’ve waited 22 goddamn years to see them.
But I have covid.
(sad, angry noises)
I tried it so you don’t have to #1: Against my better judgement I bought the Betty Crocker violet crumble brownie mix to try. It barely made enough mixture to cover the cake tin size it said to use and made the flattest most lame arse brownie that disgraced my shabby kitchen with it’s pancake presence. The kids said it was… ok, tasty enough but we’ve definitely made better. One star, do not bother with this waste of money.
Triple pepper pie. 😺
We’re going into the city this Saturday for a market and it will be my job to keep the kids busy. My girlfriend is sending me all this stuff we could do but I’ve just remembered; they’re 3, they’d be happy with riding the train or the trams around the city
City days with the family were (and still are) some of my favourite memories.
Kids love it. Buy them some snacks and a cheap toy and they’ll be in heaven.
They’re a bit stressful with twins but they have a great time at least
the big diesels at spencer street are so cool, there is the old city loop tram, the new metro trains are awesome
the kids will have a great time 🙂
That’s it, there’s also a donut festival at Queen Vic market. We could have lunch then catch the tram up there
If the kids get antsy and need a playground break, there’s a fantastic playground at Lincoln Square just down from the market
We can visit that too. They’d have fun running around the market but constraining them to a park will be much less stressful
The girlfriend has finally started playing around with emulators on her Steamdeck. Good thing she has me here to show her the way
playing games together is the best fun
She’s mostly doing it to play a new switch game but it opens up so many options for games she wants to play
Mm, tea.
I’ve had two wildly productive workdays this week, and have no idea where they’ve come from. They ARE just in time for my EOFY review and bonus though, so…
People only remember your most recent performance when it comes to annual reviews and bonuses so good timing
👍💰
So I redid my nail polish.
All products are Sally Hansen because I'm a cheap bitch 💅✨
Left hand:
- 3 coats of 480 Everything Zen
- 1 coat of 124 Amethyst Allure
Right hand:
- 2 coats of 460 Travelling Light
- 1 coat of 450 Reflection Pool
Edit. Top coat is the SH Insta-Dri in the red bottle with the white cap.
If I face north, my left hand points east to dawn, and my right hand points west to dusk. Therefore I call this Diurnail Cycle because I’m so original like that lol.
Shiny! Shall there be an interpretive dance display for solstice?
I’ll do a rendition of the dance I had to do to in grade 1 to that Age of Aquarius song
Oooh!
that looks really nice 🥰
Thank you! ✨🥹 I’m still practicing application and drying, so they look a bit iffy in places, but I do paint them to mostly protect them from scuffs so the polish scuffing is expected. :3
Do you impersonate a T-Rex while drying? I do 👻
Sort of lol I’m usually sitting outside when I do it, so as to not overwhelm the apartment with the smell. I just play mobile games while they dry (brotato and slice and dice mainly). I do the T-Rex thing when sunlight hits my balcony and I’ll rush over to put my nails in it haha
These are gorgeous, I love how you mix and match!! I went looking for SH top coat tonight but chickened out because I’m a tightass and I know it’ll be half price at Chemist Warehouse soon.
I’m about to take off the remnants of my 2 week old polish and try something else… after a face mask and a glass of wine.
Ooooooo yasss you must show me what colours you choose :3 always worth waiting for a sale, otherwise they can be so exxy 😭
Strained some ligaments training last night. Totally self inflicted.
Curing my ailments with wine and THC (after a nice pasta dinner).
I should get injured more often 😁
When the recreation and self-care venn diagrams overlap 👩🍳😙🤌
I’m pretty certain they cancel each other out
In the office now after everything. I have a list of things I’m supposed to be doing but I’m the only one from the team in so it’s a me day
cough suppressant has been obtained, hopefully it will help with the coughing from allergies
Hugs…hope you get answers and treatment next week!!
Internet is down, I’m using my phone but it’s so slow.
ugh, I has some stuff I wanted to do today, it will have to wait
Weird shit happening to computers here in Richmond too. Much much much slower than usual - and ASIC’s computer has been dropping in and out unpredictably all day too. They’ve scheduled an all day outage for all of tomorrow for bits of it. Yep, 5 pm today to 5 pm tomorrow. In the lead up to the EOFY. The less said about the State Revenue Office’s computers the better at the best of times, but today has been particularly awful. Our systems are all good to go and we’ve done triple checks on all processing protocols - for once the problem is NOT our systems. At lunchtime I noticed the pay stations in the Coles at Richmond Traders were ALSO having dropouts and delays.
