Party preparations have begun

Advanced Tribbles?

I saw a fox just before.

I’m worried that by leaving food for the strays overnight that I’ve put them in danger…

I’ve had to accept that I can only really give these guys a helping hand. Still trying to find a rescue to take them, feeding them everyday.

I can’t really do much more. I can trap them and get them spayed and vaccinated but they’re still pretty much in danger 24/7.

I’ve gotten way too attached.

Tough pill to swallow.

Got an invite to weekly catchup with operations manager.

The deal is sealed 🎉🎉🎉

A Canadian celebration breakfast put on by young Mr Seagoon , we had pancakes and maples syrup and fresh coffee. Tonight it will ne Canadian mac n cheese. With crumbled crisps baked on top. It’s a Canadian thing.

Then a walk n on the dog beach with Miss Seagoon and Bear the Irish terrier. I picked up ten new kinds of shells.

here is Miss Seagoon and Bear

then shopping in the city, a quick bite and we went to Clock museum, which was a weird place.

Now home for a few days while the big storm blows through.😊

I love the young Seagoons so much 🥹

Well, I asked for more field work, and while I was out onto one site I got called up to go to two more, in the rain and cold and everything. But it helped; I feel heaps better today despite some challenging people to deal with (not colleagues). Needed to get oot and aboot!

Gonna go in tomorrow and probably work a full day - heading out midday with the team for an industry meeting/conference thing. Earning that extra money as much as I can. Lord knows I need it. Psych appt got moved to tomorrow so I’ll be budgeting carefully until next Friday evening… Need to reschedule dentist again…

Now what to do at home? Maybe some long overdue journalling. Still getting used to not having this big acute deadline hanging over my head ☺️ might also watch an Ang Lee classic, Eat Drink Man Woman.

Furbaby had a cuddle, napped, then has been woken for dinner and meds. I hope she’s feeling a bit better.

Also I’m glad you guys are around. You’re good people.

Picked up a friend from the Austin Repat today. The place is a time warp. So run down, I’m surprised it’s still useable at all. Desperately in need of a major refurbishment.

I put on a goosebumps 90s episode last night to watch with little one and man the 90s melancholy/nostalgia/wistfulness hit me so hard. Oh to be able to go back to that time.

Oh a side note, I love how Slappy scares my 9 year old. She talks tough about not being scared of anything, but as soon as Slappy moves his head she’s clinging to me like she’s about to fall off a mountain lol.

My lost Bunnings order has finally made it to me 🥳 I can now put my house number on the letterbox, finally.

I kept hearing this noise at night and I thought it was the sound of some electrical thing outside. I have confirmed it’s a possum. Sounds like me screaming with no high pitched noise.

My dad was great for putting up a pergola outside, but the possums love running up it.

At my co-working space they do a free breakfast on Wednesdays - you best believe I loaded up my plate. There was waffles with chocolate sauce, English muffins with ham and cheese, croissants, yoghurt with fruit, donuts, I got it all. Food coma incoming. And I brought my own lunch too.

Unfucking things that are now fucked, that you tried to keep unfucked, is fucked.

It’s only 8:15am :(

power is browning out from storm

good night, sweet dreams , love you all

Think I’m going to try and cook a one pan dumpling dish that keeps coming up on my Instagram for dins tonight, seems like it’ll be a great night to try out a creamy curry dumpling dish!
