    Found a cactus I got as a kid 30 yrs ago randomly in the old unused wood bbq. Never been fed / watered still kicking and looking ridiculous in that pot. Repotted it and that was always gonna hurt :( went straight through the gloves.

    And anothery of the blossom (I’m obsessed by it I know). Nother week should be full tilt:

    I purchased a little old nonna wheely trolley for my groceries today. I actually owned one ages ago but gave it away when I last moved…next minute…landed with no car and have been walking again for ages. My shoulders thank me.

    My day was spent pottering, walking, rearranging pot plants and chatting on the phone. I really needed a day like that.

    Made a version of kedgeree to scratch that tinned fish and rice itch. I cook the rice with the fish in an attempt to get more flavour imbued. It’s alright if I say so myself. The cardamom is doing a lot of heavy lifting

    6/8 assessments passed.

    Waiting for my last two pracs to be assessed and then I can relax. I’ve just been pottering around, pacing, telling myself to not expect marks on the weekend, but I’m anxious.

    I just need validation that I am smart, and not a total lost cause 😭

    Seems like magpies are learning bad habits from humans.

    Just watched one casually cross the road slowly
    without any care for the world. Didn’t even fly away when I approached it in the car, simply brushed off the encounter when I had to drive around it.
