Got a whole lot of household stuff I've been thinking about selling because I'm moving away. Better give them to you. IKEA drill set, hammer and screwdriver set, space heater, baskets and tubs and stools, drawer set on wheels, microwave and pizza oven, etc etc. All those bottles of this and that for cleaning, bleach tablets, sponges, hand soap. The list goes on. Let us know what you don't already have!
I left Melbourne several Christmases ago (true story, the tickets to Perth were purchased initially to be just a holiday visit), but somehow I'm still here. Think of me as so far west, I'm past Werribee.
It isn't an especially remarkable tale. I moved to Melbourne following a girl. After a few years, we got married and had a couple of kids. Fast forward to the oldest being 5.
Dad came to Melbourne to visit us, it turned out he wasn't really cooking for himself since mum had died and wasn't in a great place in general. We had enrolled the kid in school, but he hadn't put down roots yet. And then my contract at work finished up. It was a rare moment where we had nothing in particular holding us where we were.
Melbourne was wonderful when it was just the two of us, but it was tough to be there with kids and no family support. Every time we visited Perth, we had grandparents and a couple of aunties to help look after the kids. We already had flights booked for Christmas, so we just cancelled the return flights. I lined up my next job in Perth and we've been here since.
Dad is. He was stationed with the army in Queensland when he met mum. I was born up there; we moved to Perth when I was 12. When asked, I usually tell people I'm from Perth - it's where I've lived the biggest percentage of my life. But no, I'm not originally from here.
Firstly, once again, congrats!!!! Aaaaa! So exciting!! ๐คฉ I am super stoked for the freedoms and safety that are coming your way.
Secondly, echoing Duenan, if you're comfortable sharing which general area you'll be in I'm sure there's several of us who'd be more than happy to chip in. Shit, I'd have kept aside a bunch more stuff for you when I was moving out. But completely understand if you'd rather keep it quiet
Thirdly - great time to be hitting the op shops, heaps of shit from people moving out at end of semester/landlords selling/etc. There will be mugs galore.
Fourthly... hadn't realised how tricky it would be to set up utilities as an under-18! Not long until that all goes away though? and then you can sign up with whoever you want...
No worries dude, I had some rocky times around your age and got some help, happy to pay it on. If you run into problems, don't be shy, a heap of people here want to help you if you need it.
If in the north, I have some extra bed linen in good/near new condition. You might as well have it if you want it. Also some extra cooking pots and utensils. Vinnies and similar is good for crockery and eating cutlery. Won't 'match' but who gives a shit when cooking/eating for one only.
Also, if you need a cooking knife etc. I can let you have the picnic knife to tide you over until you can legally buy one to suit you. Or if you wish, I can buy one for you. Let me know by dm.
EDIT: I also have a spare electric kettle in working order.
Iโm happy to chip in on some art or nice sheets or something to make it feel homely, if you like - theyโve said theyโll pay for the essentials, but I reckon your first place thatโs your own should be somewhere you enjoy being.
Youโve done well, Baku. From here, youโll only get better.
Had to sort of have 'the talk' with mum last night about hanging up the car keys. Had it before and we agreed only short trips (<2km) in daylight and less regular. Now after this it's completely not safe for everyone. Feels bad, basically taking independence. She brought it up saying in a few days she'll be able to get behind the wheel again so in that sense it wasn't a sit her down and tell her something out of the blue thing.
I think one of harder things here is hearing her say 'in a few days' about a lot of things but the reality is things have changed permanently. In not saying anything when she says that I am giving false hope which I'm not sure is good or bad.
last night at dinner, I cooked a nice dinner for BIL. narcissist mil always has to give a reason why she can't cook the fabulous dinners she used to cook, fabulous dinners that are much better than anything I do, while at the same time playing victim to get attention. She has done this routine for decades. She has never cooked in anyone's memory.
MIL ๐ข"I can't cook because I can't chop vegetables anymore."
Seagoon in the deadest most emotionless voice she can muster. "buy frozen vegetables"
Then on leaving she had the cheek to expect to take home any left overs. I used to pack her loads of complete meals to take home in containers and then in a bag.
But she refused to give back my ikea containers and said the good quality grocery tote was perfect for her rubbish bag. Such disrespect.
Itโs such a difficult situation to be in, and I really sympathise. It must be so hard for your mum dealing with these changes, and for you trying to help her.
Can you subtly suggest the how good Uber (or whatever car system that might work) is? No parking issues, cheaper overall costs, etc.
I remember how hard it was to get my mum to stop driving, and she wasnโt great at it even before age-related decline.
I spoke with my family tonight. I don't speak with them often (enough). Not that I have a problem with my siblings, or my parents... I love them all.
Got to see the nieces and nephews, and they are all so cute and cool. My siblings seem like fantastic parents.
I wish I was good enough, you know? I'm just a self-isolating depressive I guess. I don't want to bring them all down. Sorry, I guess I'm going to bring you all down instead...
True, but the Minipeelers opted out of advent calendars for it so I thought, 'tis the season. Also when it first came out it was like $30 or $40, so $20 didn't seem so bad by comparison.
Colesworth has them, should be around $20-$25. They are a vast improvement on the shockingly hard and flavour less gingerbread house kits available this time of year, not to mention the unspeakably awful gummy brick house!
Well, been awhile since Llab was out till almost stumps.
Breeze was gorgeous in the wee hours of the morning in this fine city of ours. Feet are tired, but trekked the CBD without an issue, in fact everyone who was still out just seemed happy.
After much procrastination and resentment I have done the dishes. I HATE DOING DISHES SO MUCH. Especially using gloves and not quite noticing a slight sheen of oil on spoon handles... ugh. Is this my life for the next 24 weeks?!
Seriously considering a second-hand tabletop dishwasher if I can chuck it in the "laundry cupboard" on top of the washing machine... there's extra taps and an extra power outlet... anyone with experience of these?
I reworked my synth setup last night, finally. I have everything plugged in and most things are working, I just need to figure out channels and clock on the Microfreak.
I have two arrangements that work independently, but I should be able to midi them across to share tempo and have them work together if I want to
There's meant to be really good. I haven't delved too deep because it uses that annoying trs midi and I only have a really short cable to connect it to other devices.
But it has a really good synth engine, and they added samples and granular synthesis in firmware updates. It might be worth hooking up to a midi keyboard as the touch capacitive one it has isn't for everyone.
Otherwise, there's always the minifreak if you're willing to spend a bit more
I'm tinkering with the electronic stuff at the moment. I want to sit down and maybe make an instrumental guitar ep, and I could use the synths for live backing and recording real instruments instead of everything being vsts
Aw man, I hate that feeling. And then when you find the thing later you're like, that's money and time I could've saved. Hopefully it's one of those things where having two of the item is not a waste. There's some random shit I found while packing that I never used and that is coming on handy at my current place...
Good idea! And you know what, stuff does just go missing like that sometimes. What do. What do you use for frothing? I was given this battery powered mini frother years ago that I still haven't even taken out of the packaging... dunno how good they are.
Also if anyone is westside and wants Christmas decorations I realised I have a giant (like one of those big plastic tubs full) box of purple/gold ornaments in the storage box. My ex must have randomly given them back and they somehow have missed the multiple declutters. I am never gonna have a tree that big again. Will take them to salvos on there weekend but thought I would check here first. DM me if you want them and can pick them up
Cross stitch is fairly simple, it is mostly a matter of persistance. You follow someone else's pattern which is the real talent.
I actually have another Christmas cross stitch too, but I ignore the fact that it is supposed to be a Christmas design and it is up all year - it is much larger, and a lot of the design is beaded as well.
Iโve been looking again at anything I might like to do in my area but honestlyโฆ I donโt want to mix. Not here, no.
Thatโs the entire reason I rely so much on the internet. Itโs oddly easier for me to find pockets of decent folks online and thereโs less access to me if someone should turn out to be weird or nasty.
Plus some of the groups would require me to come home after dark and yeah nah. I think Iโll just be hanging out with my cat and the DT for the foreseeable future.
Sorry Seagoon_, yesterday someone had posted a daily a few hours early before yours, so I had to delete one of the two and chose yours to keep as it was closer to the day of the thread.
Didn't mean to make you feel like you had to wait until midnight, I was just explaining why I was deleting the first thread in favour of yours.
Of this last assessment I need to submit, I've completed 3/6 parts. The three were the longest parts of this assessment (nutritional content of food provided to three species of animals).
Now I just have the last three parts to complete, which are very short in comparison to the first three, and I should be able to get it submitted tonight after a proofread.
Just having a quick coffee break before I get back to the grind
If you want to recreate that Christmas Woolies ad where the kids make a pretend giant sparkly carrot and have a lavish Christmas lunch you'll have to shop elsewhere for the time being cos I couldn't even get Cruskits the other day. Lol.
Face is for kisses! You won't get kicked or bit if you keep your hands to yourself, and smush your face into his belly making kissy sounds. His purrs shake the windows ๐
Step 1 clean and put away clothes
Step 2 some work bits to set up the week
Step 3 dig out some Christmas decorations and spruce the place up
Need to do some food in there for the week... Might so a batch of black bean chilli. I have some wraps and I could do some rice or maybe potato mash. That should deal with lunches for a few days. I think I am going to need too wfo most of this week...
Warm weeks like this, I make giant bowls of potato salad or pasta salad if I can be stuffed. Sometimes it's just boiled eggs and a variety of fruits, vegetables and cold meats.
::: spoiler reply to small rant also containing a spoiler
I actually knew that one - not because I know about the Superbowl, but because of cooking. For some reason the typical food eaten at a superbowl party is chili (so the avocado would be for guacamole). I was looking up a lot of chili recipes a couple of years ago and an awful lot of them were referencing Superbowl parties.

Ugh had a terrible sleep, kept waking up through the night and then woke up early and couldnโt get back to sleep. Guess itโs a day of being a zombie today for me.

Not going to lie, zooming in a train doing 100+ kph, while cars are doing 60 next to you is pretty fun. ๐
The best bit is the freeway at peak hour. Cars sitting in traffic watching a secession of trains flying past them doing 120 while they crawl to town.
We have a new train line opening next weekend. Will have to take the kids to Ellenbrook on the opening day.

God, what an awful day.
My parents came to visit because it's my mum's birthday. We went to a local cafe and the food took ages.
Then, both myself and my girlfriend got sick, probably from what we ate at the cafe.
And then I rolled my ankle as they were leaving, the worst I ever have.
So then I was dealing with two kids, who are fortunately asleep now, and I had to hobble to the toilet whenever the urge took me.

After much procrastination and resentment I have done the dishes. I HATE DOING DISHES SO MUCH. Especially using gloves and not quite noticing a slight sheen of oil on spoon handles... ugh. Is this my life for the next 24 weeks?!
Seriously considering a second-hand tabletop dishwasher if I can chuck it in the "laundry cupboard" on top of the washing machine... there's extra taps and an extra power outlet... anyone with experience of these?

I reworked my synth setup last night, finally. I have everything plugged in and most things are working, I just need to figure out channels and clock on the Microfreak.
I have two arrangements that work independently, but I should be able to midi them across to share tempo and have them work together if I want to
Bottom_racer@aussie.zone · 6 pts · 1y
ooh we need pics of that!
StudChud@aussie.zone · 5 pts · 1y
Seconded!!
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone · 5 pts · 1y
Is the microfreak worth it? Been looking at it as my first hardware synth.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 1y
There's meant to be really good. I haven't delved too deep because it uses that annoying trs midi and I only have a really short cable to connect it to other devices.
But it has a really good synth engine, and they added samples and granular synthesis in firmware updates. It might be worth hooking up to a midi keyboard as the touch capacitive one it has isn't for everyone.
Otherwise, there's always the minifreak if you're willing to spend a bit more
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone · 2 pts · 1y
Cheers man. The capacitive keyboard is a bit odd, but I reckon it's seems priced decently for what it can do.
I'll head down to mannys and see if they have one to demo.

Duenan@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 1y
Yeah though I didnโt anticipate misplacing it so badly.
I just use a Kmart branded frother.
It does the job and does make a lot of froth thatโs thick.
I usually turn it off midway through because it makes maybe too much froth and itโs very foamy thick.

Cross stitch is fairly simple, it is mostly a matter of persistance. You follow someone else's pattern which is the real talent.
I actually have another Christmas cross stitch too, but I ignore the fact that it is supposed to be a Christmas design and it is up all year - it is much larger, and a lot of the design is beaded as well.
