Well DT, I got the place... and at the original rent no less (thanks, sloppy REAs!). Payment has gone through so it's official.
I'm relieved but also... now that it's real my heart is also filled with incredible, crushing sadness. I know it's going to be good for me to downsize and cull and open up my life to new options but I am so, so, sad to have to let go of my comforts here under such ugly circumstances. I can't even bear to look at my plants, it breaks my heart. Such is life though, isn't it. Change does not always happen the way we want it to. (and this isn't by far the worst experience I've had having to leave a house)
My plan for tonight is to just make a meta-list of tasks so that I don't feel too overwhelmed, but after that I'm going to just let the emotions flow through and watch an episode of Shrinking and take it easy. No stiffer up lip tonight. The work will start tomorrow. I know I'll get through this, there is joy on the other side. ❤️🩹
Honestly again I'm more than happy to look after them in the interim until they either follow you and/or for when you find them a new home (I promise I won't eat them).
I appreciate the offer! But many are not long for this world anyway (biannuals/annuals that i didn't bother replacing).
I've got several offers of good homes for the big plants from friends and colleagues (helps when most of them are into plants heh). Could even take the manzano to the office courtyard. I'm pretty fond of that lil dude
Sending you my love, I am glad that you have a place to move to.
I'm sorry about your plants, it's difficult to let go, especially when the circumstances are so lame. But there will be a time when you will have plants again to pour your love and care into. This is a temporary stop on your journey, and you have already proven yourself to be capable, intelligent, and motivated. Trust yourself, you are awesome.
Wherever you end up, you're always always welcome in the DT here. And we'll always be here rooting for you and waving our flags for you 💜
What kind of plants and what sort of setup? (Not asking for anything doxable, just an idea of what you could be working with in the new place.)
There’s a lot of creative ways to have plants, even ones that are just indoor plants. There are also small hydroponic indoor garden kits that could fit on a bench top or windowsill for herbs, bonsai, or air plants.
(I’m so sorry, I’m not good with emotional support and tend to be a fixer but I understand if this is not helpful or wanted)
Count me in! You were so fucking awesome last time, and I was rapt for you when those strangers gave you praise for your set after! That was so damn cool!
Don't forget it's Movember too, so if you have a couple of dollars to spare please support this worthy cause and laugh at the hilarity of some people try to pull off a tache all month!
About to walk to the shops down here on the foreshore and I reckon I'll get 13 'hellos' Gonna count that shit then when I get back to melbs in a few days going to say hello to randos and I'm going to compare how miserable we all are.
😂 I just realised last week that I didn't have to do that crappy xmas dinner in July shitty deal. MIL#1 really wanted me to cook a xmas dinner and have all the celebration but without presents. So last year I did, I made a lovely three course xmas dinner then made everyone watch two different Scrooge movies so they truly understood the meaning of xmas. They did not expect to celebrate the meaning of xmas, they just wanted a fancy dinner and to be fashionable. They did not like the Scrooge. They have never mentioned xmas in winter/July again. 😄
it bothers me how when she first started she was mocked for being a woman, for being a red head, for being working class, for having a working class business
and then people wonder why she got votes 🙄
few people reported on or cared what she was saying, nor that what she was saying was normal LNP party policy
there are few good guys in that whole fucking drama
It isn't, but it's like when you have someone that everyone knows has ADHD who finally gets a diagnosis. It's good for everyone that it's finally on record and they can get the support they need.
Actually I don't know if that last bit will happen for Pauline 🤔
why are you making shit up, I never said I agreed or supported her
I am saying how she was reported and what the public response was
it pissed me off how the LNP lied when they said they weren't racist and that Hanson doesn't represent them, she exposed them all as being racist. She was originally a LNP candidate.
Hanson was quoting the policies in the members handbook the LNP gave her
the racist LNP were angry at her for exposing their hidden racism, the city middle class mocked her , this is such a fucking classist country
the news did not focus on her racism and nativism, just her class
I hated Fraser but at least he wasn't a racist cunt like Howard and the rest
Ah, it's frustrating that I loved Heavensward and Shadowbringers the most. Will also still put in those many more thousands of hours yet to play though! And nice to meet a fellow player, hopefully we'll randomly match in a roulette and you can watch me YOLO tank haha
I started playing just before Endwalker came out so I basically played everything through together all the way through to the Endsinger, so didn't really have proper separation through any part of it. Dawntrail is my first experience of playing a single expansion at a time (and it sucks, I want to mainline more MSQ dammit, none of this waiting another 2 years for a new expansion!)
I main healer so I'll get to keep you alive if you YOLO tank 😊
meet has dragged on. Finally we get to the "Ok if no one has anything else...."
when some idiot pipes up "Oh yeah just one more thing"
Dude STFU. No one cares. its Friday. Shut up.
Have discovered a fantastic little cafe near my work that does the most amazing toasties. The first time I had one I had my mind blown, thought it could have just been a fluke, but nope, 2 different toasties later, tis confirmed delicious place, completely with excellent vibes! Anyone near Moorabbin Airport needs to checkout Milhouse!
My holiday has begun with a pint of Guinness at the pub, and a lamb kebab n chips grabbed on the way home. I will now find something brainless to watch and enjoy it in the happy knowledge that nobody expects me to do anything for several days
Someone smells like they've bathed themselves in aftershave today and it stinks, I don't know how they walk around without knowing how bad and strong it smells.
I feel like my senses are being assaulted, let the day end quickly!
The ones I haaaate are the girls who get on a crowded tram and proceed to spray themselves with perfume. A known hazard of Friday pm public transport. Or anytime on trams that pass a secondary school.
Remember it's supposed to entice someone to come closer, to put their face near your neck to sniff that intriguing scent. They should not be able to smell you fifteen minutes after you left the fucking room, it defeats the purpose
another issue is are people using cologne or parfum? So easy to use too much parfum and that's why I use cologne. I also make sure I do the same amount every time because I don't trust my nose.
I went with the Nivea women's sensitive roll on, It seems to be working so far the last 2 months I've been using it but it'll probably get a workout during summer.
I do find that it doesn't irritate me though which is good.
I got some cans of cat food from the food cupboard this arvo - diet chicken mousse that someone else's cat presumably didn't like. Miss Meow seems enthusiastic about it so that's definitely a win.
What's with all the people complaining about kids taking all the Halloween treats? They just leave a bowl out there , what do they expect.
You're supposed to decorate yer house a little, make a welcome sign then wait for kids to knock on your door. The kids say trick or treat and you decide. If no treat they can trick you. Give nice treats and maybe have something Halloweeny to do. They wear cute costumes and you get to talk with kids and community. It's meant to be interactive and fun.
Been leaving before tinyest wakes up the last few days, get home and he wants almost nothing to do with me. I am home today though so he woke up with me and wanted all of the cuddles.
So cuddles only happen in the morning? I can live with that.
The illustrated edition of The Hobbit is back in stock at Kmart. You can get it from other places, but Kmart sells it for half the price of everywhere else all the time.
Finally paid off the toy sale laybuy. I tell you what, I'm not doing that in store again. Next year I'll add whatever can go through laybuy online and buy what can't in store.
All this for $300 worth of toys as well. I almost used laybuy to not have to hide everything at home for 6 months
Eh I’m bored. I’m usually happy to chill in front of tv most nights but am feeling like there’s nothing I really wanna watch. Maybe I should read a book? I’m too tired to go anywhere but not too tired to want to do something. First world leisure time problems.
Can I plz have a less than a fist full of lollies, a dinosaur nugget, some deodorant, some horse poo (which I will actually pay for) and a consultant paid by the hour.
awesome, I found a 25cm cymbiola magnifica at the op shop for $8. A large spiral shell. Not a perfect one, this one has been thru the wars when alive and has regrown it's shell. But still a cool find of a shell native to Victoria.
Cleaning stresses Melbcat out so with the big clean she’s been overgrooming :(
I haven’t had her on her anti anxiety stuff lately because she’d been going ok. I was sweeping instead of continuing to vacuum and thought the cuddle breaks were calming her down enough. But seems I really should have restarted it well before this. Dropped the ball.
Against better judgement I did some work and let time get away from me while the WBBL was having a rain break and subsequently the game got called off due to heavy rain.
Finished working and now I don’t have to do any over the weekend and I have the entire Monday off now to look forward to.
I know minimalism isn’t for the poors cos you always need that thing again. But I’m having a strong urge to bin everything I own.
It’s fine. I’m putting everything away, doing a cheeky shove, and I can sort the cupboards out later. What matters is just getting things tidy and wiped down. Spring cleaning isn’t finished yet.
Edit: The guy showed up before I was quite done but it’s fine. The inspection was structural
I think my smoke shop has finally been barbequed. It's hard to tell because the only article is in the hs. I guess after the 100th, it's no longer news. It was a good run. RIP.
Update: It's not my shop. It lives another day. Phew.
My crocs have arrived. I’ve not taken them off since I put them on try, my feet have not known such comfort. I think they just beat out the Birks on the comfort level. More squishy.
Alright, bunnings still had TONS of veggies left so I've loaded up and ordered some veggie mix soil to fill up my raised planters. How do I decide what goes where? i've got 4 raised planters and 2 stand alone smaller pot things.
Gotta plan 2 strawberries, 2 Tomatoes, 4 beetroot, 1 capsicum, punnet of carrot, zucchini, punnet of cos lettuce and punnet of green beans. Dunno where to put stuff.
Idk but maybe look at companion planting guides, or what type of sacrificial plants to lure pests off more valuable veg
Might give some ideas
Edit: I know tomatoes are heavy feeders and beans have that nitrogen fixing thing that enriches the soil, maybe that’s a good combo and they both climb so could share the stakes/lattice. Maybe even plant the beans tomatoes and zucchini interspersed.
Just throwing out ideas. Someone experienced weigh in
Edit: Also I saw something once about people planting things with deep roots and shallow roots in together so they made the most of the shared small space but I haven’t tried it.
If I tried it it would be baby spinach and carrots because those are what I’m familiar with. But strawberries spread over the surface of the soil with runners so maybe they have relatively shallow roots and can bunk in with the carrots?
Idk though. It also depends on their sun water and drainage needs, and if they inexplicably don’t work out together for some other reason. You’d have to check proper sources whether they combine well
I've been planning a book for about 6 months, was thinking first I should practice all the art skills. Now I'm thinking I should just do it
and practice each page as I go.
Got a chance to drive a hybrid today for lessons. The regenerative braking is surprisingly subtle.
Also, is it a long weekend this weekend? Talked to some people who said that it was, but I've got no holidays marked out on the calendar. Or is it a school thing?
EDIT: Turns out to be the Melbourne cup. It just didn't show up for some reason.

the way to do perfume
spray 3 short spritzes in the air and walk thru the cloud
after shave, put a few sprinkles on your hands and dab gently on all the shaved areas of your face. It's an antiseptic.

way to do perfume:
TINY. DABS.
Remember it's supposed to entice someone to come closer, to put their face near your neck to sniff that intriguing scent. They should not be able to smell you fifteen minutes after you left the fucking room, it defeats the purpose

I find the unscented or ‘sensitive’ antiperspirants aren’t as effective which is unfortunate. Really hate that they changed the Mitchum roll on.
I currently use it anyway because the other unscented options aren’t good and it’s better than accidental perfume cloud
Duenan@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 1y
I went with the Nivea women's sensitive roll on, It seems to be working so far the last 2 months I've been using it but it'll probably get a workout during summer.
I do find that it doesn't irritate me though which is good.

What's with all the people complaining about kids taking all the Halloween treats? They just leave a bowl out there , what do they expect.
You're supposed to decorate yer house a little, make a welcome sign then wait for kids to knock on your door. The kids say trick or treat and you decide. If no treat they can trick you. Give nice treats and maybe have something Halloweeny to do. They wear cute costumes and you get to talk with kids and community. It's meant to be interactive and fun.

Alright, bunnings still had TONS of veggies left so I've loaded up and ordered some veggie mix soil to fill up my raised planters. How do I decide what goes where? i've got 4 raised planters and 2 stand alone smaller pot things. Gotta plan 2 strawberries, 2 Tomatoes, 4 beetroot, 1 capsicum, punnet of carrot, zucchini, punnet of cos lettuce and punnet of green beans. Dunno where to put stuff.

Idk but maybe look at companion planting guides, or what type of sacrificial plants to lure pests off more valuable veg
Might give some ideas
Edit: I know tomatoes are heavy feeders and beans have that nitrogen fixing thing that enriches the soil, maybe that’s a good combo and they both climb so could share the stakes/lattice. Maybe even plant the beans tomatoes and zucchini interspersed.
Just throwing out ideas. Someone experienced weigh in
Edit: Also I saw something once about people planting things with deep roots and shallow roots in together so they made the most of the shared small space but I haven’t tried it.
If I tried it it would be baby spinach and carrots because those are what I’m familiar with. But strawberries spread over the surface of the soil with runners so maybe they have relatively shallow roots and can bunk in with the carrots?
Idk though. It also depends on their sun water and drainage needs, and if they inexplicably don’t work out together for some other reason. You’d have to check proper sources whether they combine well

I've been planning a book for about 6 months, was thinking first I should practice all the art skills. Now I'm thinking I should just do it and practice each page as I go.
And perfection is not a requirement. 🙂

If you're in your 20's, hostel.
If older, hotel.
That's how I'd do it

I like to yodel during the vinegar strokes. Really adds to the ambience.

Old people do hostels too.
Tho hostels aren't cheap anymore so hotels are just as good a choice.

Really? I had no clue on both fronts.

Got a chance to drive a hybrid today for lessons. The regenerative braking is surprisingly subtle.
Also, is it a long weekend this weekend? Talked to some people who said that it was, but I've got no holidays marked out on the calendar. Or is it a school thing?
EDIT: Turns out to be the Melbourne cup. It just didn't show up for some reason.
