Rebuilding a gate atm. Lotsa little arguments w/ ol’ boy on how to do it. He’s the type where every idea is bad unless it’s his.
Anyway we run into a problem where it needs propping up at the hinge. Not wanting another bs argument I stand back and watch, waiting. 20 mins go by nothing was working.
My old black lab had a kong that’s been outside for probably 20+ years and still in good shape.
So when he turned his back, I chuck the kong under the gate. Perfect height, perfect swivel of the gate. Kong is the same colour as the house looks like it’s always been there. Sturdy af.
He goes back to the gate to try something else… sees the kong, tries the gate, tries it again, looks at the ground and walks away without saying anything.
3 days later the kong is still there lol.
Felt good.
Never underestimate the kong.
I can’t understand that, ideas and decisions are exhausting
I’m always looking to other people for ideas, inspiration and sharing responsibility
I hate people that act like that almost as much as I love gloating over them when I’m proven right.
And of course remind them regularly.
I’ve gotta rebuild half of my front gate. I don’t like digging the pits for the posts. I wonder if I can get someone with a post holer to swing by and drill out two big holes?
I’m playing Bride and Prejudice and trying to teach Bill Cat to dance.
He is having none of it.
How can he be a decent cat and marry Pyaari if he doesn’t know how to dance.
Bill’s just being a bro. He knows that Ted is sweet on Pyaari and doesn’t want to block his chances
I’ve fallen into a Pyaari hole. I can’t decide if she is really that sweet and docile, or is plotting to leave a deposit in someone’s shoe.
She was raised to be that sweet from kittenhood
she is so decent 💖
I think she’s conflicted
Left, left, caproil
That’s the look of “oh god not again”
He’s just not a dancer , not like Casey and Allie were.
If you’re in the mood for Bollywood may I recommend Taal? There’s a version with English subtitles on YouTube. I don’t like either of the love interests but the songs are good
Sounds great, I’ll have a look. 😊
Where’s my snack?
Done! Avoiding temptation to fuss with the pickles
That looks pretty awesome.
Thankyou! It’s certainly not photo real but better than cartoon
Very well done!
Looks like a giant oreo gone wrong, but I bet it tasted great.
Sammidge! Did you end up doing crepes for the meat
Yes. Sweet crepes with some fake raspberry drops, and real powdered ones on the edge
Happy Friday eve
May all the bastards leave you alone today, and tomorrow.
One of my goals for the medium term is to learn how to write properly, and that involves researching well. I am dragging myself to academic skills. Stuff AI giving my ideas. I want my brain back if it was there to begin with.
Here goes with multi interviews tomorrow.
Goodnight all ❤️
🤞🏼you’ll smash them!
🤞🤞🤞
One of my interviews tomorrow is in the building where my mother used to work 20 odd years ago.
What a fucking coincidence. Lots of memories attached to that place.
Wow, if you do get an offer and decide to go for it, I hope you can make new and better memories!!
Thank you! Fingers crossed :)
I don’t quite know what’s wrong with me, but I’ve been vague and had no real energy for like, a week and a half
Same. Im starting to think it’s daylight savings.
lots of vague viruses around at the moment
I had that sore throat dizzy one 2 weeks ago, got palpitations too, and it’s hard to shake, might be some post viral syndrome
Same - I put it down to the amount of travelling I’ve been doing and the vague upset tummy I had a couple weeks ago. Loaded up today on vitamin D, iron - the two things I get low on first - and ginko which seems to help with post viral shenanigans 💪 . But I suspect its just spring blues. I need Christmas holidays
I’m trying to bump up the B12 and start to actually take my vitamin D (on top of multi gummies). I really hope it helps
Today is 6 months since I stopped taking suboxone.
It was absolutely the best decision I’ve made in a very long time and the benefits have been unbelievable.
Not being completely numb has been a bit of a wild ride but things have settled down now ❤️
so many hugs
I don’t like how society ( internet and americans ) have pathologised emotions
emotions are real life
When I was looking after elderly gran, my American aunt stated that I probably don’t want to be wasting my life looking after elderly relatives. I thought and replied along the lines of “isn’t looking after relatives one of the main points of life”. But somehow my dad and his siblings having grown up in the States are some of the more selfish got-mine people I’ve ever met.
“happiness and feeling good is a right, anything that is a downer or difficult impinges on that right and can be called a pathology”
it was a movement started in the 60s, I am not making it up!
and huge hugs for looking after elderly relatives, you are a good martigan 😘😘😘
Here we go again…
My mate Dave has a new album out tomorrow.
I just folded and put away a doona cover that was inside out. I didn’t even find its matching pillowcase. That’s how crazy I feel today.
I store mine inside out. Makes it heaps easier to put it on the doona if you start inside out.
That’s totally wrong. Nah just joking. As long as it gets on the doona who cares.
I prefer the starfish way. Grab the doona ends, get inside the cover, find the top corners, flop onto the bed, find the bottom corners with my toes, slither back out, do up the buttons. Adjust.
I lay the cover flat on the bed, find the top corners w/ the doona, hold each corner w/ each hand, stand on the bed and shake vertically over the edge until the doona drops down.
Same. Best method!
I have the cover inside out and put my hands inside to the farthest corners, then grab the corners of the doona. Pull and shake
That is the way.
I just realised I’m incredibly uncivilised lol
That’s what Gibson told us too.
I reckon it’s the wind & full moon
I think you’re right. I did find the pillowcase and reunited them.
Oh oh. I’ll guess I’ll see some of you at the 3am had-a-nap club.
For some strange reason I always wake up 7:37am every morning. Doesn’t matter what time I go to bed, that must be my lucky number.
Sighing in lol
Ok yes I am heading home sick.just exhausted and started getting sore throat and felt dizzy. i think maybe weekend starts now but we’ll see
Get well soon.
You look after yourself, you hear?
NO
Norty norty boy!
does not sound good
rest up and get well soon
Almost called in sick. So tired from shit sleeps all week. Will have larger than normal coffee and reserve the right to go home early.
I reckon I’m still struggling with day light savings.
Summer time changes takes weeks to get over.
Same
