    Damn, was going to unwind with an episode of Murderbot but it is released Fridays, not Thursdays. But then I remembered all of The Bear s4 is available! I did need to read a recap of S3 because some of it was so slow but I also somehow forgot the amazing Napkins was in it too. I’m actually kind of happy that s4 is not returning to the insane intensity of S1 and S2 but let’s see where these characters go. The development of folks like Ritchie and Tina is what really makes the show.

    Slices of pork belly in the air fryer - suitably marinated. Have worked out how to cook them and get the skin crispy. Tinfoil you are my friend in this endeavour.

    That was actually a really uplifting and lovely psych session?! Yay! ☺️ I might not even need to see her for a while even though I’m still undecided as to whether I should terminate my lease and dump all my stuff in storage, or just pay rent until I get back. Leaving my stuff here is much, much easier, but I don’t want to be in the same rut. A lot hinges on whether I can trust myself to courageously move towards change if I come back to the same place.

    I can feel a decision bubbling up though. And other ways in which to address that yearning for a powerful driver of change

    The bedside tables are assembled!

    They may win the award for worst designed flat pack I’ve ever experienced. Multiple screws with a hex fitting recessed into the wood so you can’t get tools into them and can only turn a hex key less than a quarter turn before having to reposition. Plus a couple of instructions that were physically impossible. I had to make a few alterations to make it possible to get them together, but I think they are done solidly enough. The quality of the actual components is good and I like the overall design, but actually putting them together was definitely not something I’d want to repeat.

    It just hit me. Melbcat has IBD. So maybe she’s having a flare.

    This could explain the increased appetite, being sick, the accidents, the crying… She seems a lot better now but I’m going to get right back on the vets in the morning and ask. There is something that can be done about that.

      I was tempted at the shops just now but I already had an early dinner of stodgy soup. Instead I will finish up this jar of salsa with a new bag of corn chips yeehaw

    Income statement says tax ready but when I got and try to do my tax return it says the pre-filled information from my income statement is not tax ready.

    I guess I have to wait another day and hope it updates tomorrow. :(

    Today was AWESOME, met so many familiar and wonderful faces at this event and really recharged, invigorated by the presentations and this glorious sun has really perked me up as well. Wrapped up early and probably not working tomorrow, but I’ll have at least earned some extra dough this week and have a bit more breathing space to catch up on life stuff. I might even look up what’s on this weekend. But for the next couple of hours, it’s journalling time before the psych

        For sure! Although I would’ve liked to work a bit tomorrow and pile up the cash, I’m also grateful to have an actual weekday breather - last week I worked a full day on the day I submitted my assignment, and it’s been full days this week too. Tomorrow I can take my time to chill out at a park or head out somewhere nice without too many crowds. Start reconnecting to who the hell I am outside of work and study
