    Bought a pool and gazebo shade tent thingy for the backyard. Pool was very cheap so I thought it’d be smallish. It’s actually reasonably large and will be used extensively over the next few days and weeks. The kids love it! 😁 It’s a W for mum.

      We have a temporary pool we’ve put up the last few years. Its a great way to cool off, even though its painful to put up at first. We use a chlorine floater thing but when it gets too gritty I just drain it onto the gardens and start again.

    I wanted a nice meal at my favourite Vietnamese restaurant before the big hot but they’re still closed. How dare they have a holiday when I’m so hungry.

    If you haven’t seen it, consider sorting your lemmy posts by “Scaled” as it helps smaller communities get into your feed.

      I used to take Panadol with coffee before lying down in the dark. Idea is for the caffeine to shrink the blood vessels back down and shorten the duration

    I have completed the second batch of apricot jam, which has surpassed the first. This is beyond mere food. I have become one with the apricot.

    Cheers to all the back to work people today. May our inboxes be quiet and may it be quiet enough to keep one eye on the cricket.

    Silly dreams

    Had an insane dream last night that kept sort of going on between waking up and going back to sleep. The world was sort of split into two and everyone went to either a good place or a bad place – not like the show though. This was either a desolate planet or… a desolate planet, but with portals to other worlds.

    I thought I was in the bad place, but I somehow managed to open a portal to another dimension, in which I found myself working at a wog supermarket and I had magic powers that we were exploring.

    I am feeling very, very tired this morning! Yet, I’m back at my desk and… ??? let’s get it done, I guess.

      Have you looked outside to make sure it’s not? I think elephants would be very suited to a bin collection job.

        I must confess I have not. Our new Mayor seems innovative, so it’s certainly possible.

    Ugh. Barely slept due to stuffy nose and feeling sick. Today’s activities are long shower to feel a bit human, trip to chemist for supplies, then couch.

    Dick back to the grindstone today. As much as I’m interested to check some analytics and try new things, I’d still rather be at home
