It's been a big week. I'm tired but I'm ok, I'll rest tomorrow. Plus man and kid picked up her new car today so it's a celebration 🎉. Good news is, with a little rearranging both cars will fit in the garage because her's is a matchbox.

Cheers everyone 🍺 and 'ave a good weekend.

*This post was brought to you by a very confused little dog who is wondering why there's a strange car in the driveway.

Naw, Bacon got a mention on the Place That Must Not Be Named as a missed DT'er.

Gutters started overflowing. Thankfully it was the release valve near the tank and not anything else (just cleaned the bloody things a week and a bit ago).

But golly gosh when I hear water gushing I get completely paranoid now after all the water woes over the last few years.

Really hope it rains today. Come on BOM, let your predictions be right 🙏

::: spoiler gambling TAB has a Coalition majority at 17 to 1. Seriously thinking of chucking 10 bucks on it so at least I could buy myself an expensive bottle of scotch to drown my sorrows if they win :::

omg I can still fit into my year 11 class jacket

Op went well but dang, keeping on top of the eyedrops and meds for the next week and doing a lot of cleaning and bending down etc for my mum is quite a bit of work. Between that and getting on top of work and uni it looks like I'll have a lot on my plate

Made it home from footy. Wet through, but on the bright side I have Mongolian beef and a donut

I've done a load of washing and cleaned the bathroom. Soon I'll make some guac and a Bolognese sauce but I'm being really lazy about it lol.

I feel stupid lol

I just had a nap. Why?

I need to stay up till around 2am because I'm going to a concert tomorrow night and want to go out afterwards without zonking out halfway through.

We were far from the only ones who got the shop opening time wrong and had to twiddle our thumbs in the car park

Hilarious scenes here. Kid has now learnt why spending 5 hours in her new car with radio, lights and windows down is too much for a little battery. Also why Mummy has windy windows. Daddy is now charging the battery to atleast wind the windows up in case it rains. Kid has now killed Daddy's buzz.

Neighboura having a blue outside so of course I'm at the top of my driveway laughing my arse off.

OK I gotta stop going to bed early. Getting up at 7:30am on my day off is lame lol

Foopy

I'm going to have a nap

90 mins waiting at chemist.

Laaaaaaaame.

Edit: 2 hours now. Bad day to need to speak to the pharmacist.

Finally done. 2 and a half hours.

Morning work complete 🎺

I really do try not to be judgy. But there are people out there actually making an active choice to have margarine on their toast. It's not better for you and it tastes like spreadable plastic.

Friend coming over tonight for dinner, was an spur of the moment decision so now I have to wait for shops to open to get some supplies. Am also part of the DT washing day gang, have a load on. Panic house tidy is also in the works.

Post nap regret

sanded the outdoor table a bit and have applied the last coat of paint

after it's dry will tidy the balcony 🙂

off to the shops after lunch to get some things for fixing up the vintage bedroom suite 🙂🙂

I'm glad the Anzac march was dry. Happy for it to piss down this afternoon now.

If anyone is interested in looking at some more outdated decorating I've found another fabulous house. The wallpaper in the bedrooms is particularly interesting.

Ran into Pauline Hanson this morning. She's aged, which I suppose stands to reason. I just hadn't considered that she's 70, now. She's clearly dying her hair bright red these days. I hope she does that for herself and not from some unspoken need to fit a certain look for women in politics. Men are allowed to age and go grey. Parliament is not Hollywood.

Nice juicy storm over Trentham right now and heading our way, so maybe the washing machine magic has sorta kinda worked. Most of my washing is pretty much dry and easily tumble dried from here on so happy about that.

Train cancellations and even changing train line without announcement 😠

took over 1.5 hours to get home , usually takes 45 mins

Poured myself a nice glass of mineral water over ice.

Took a nice big gulp.....and it's Tonic water.

How's your evening going?

Alrighty. All I have to do is feed the strays and I'm done for the day.

Hopefully it won't be raining at sunset.

When I walk down to the park they're all sitting waiting for me lol

Also if it started raining just now, it's because I left the house to go for a walk in my gym gear

So ANZAC day being so close to Easter, this April we remember the veterans who died for our sins.

Dammit. The Trumpet party and some Independent wanker are texting me about the election. Gtfo my messages

Perfect leggings-and-oversized-hoodie day

Finally! Marge!

This is a job for nachos

I have watched 57 films this year, some of which, I have seen before.

Just woke back up. Time to get ready for foomptball

ahh yes the fresh hell of plugging PC into TV via HDMI and ITS TOO FUCKIGN SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAARP AAAARHGHGHG

I've been looking at the route I ended up driving yesterday, which involved some major wrong turns due to the difficulty of following GPS directions for an area of the city I don't know that is also effected by major roadworks. I think I was supposed to get off the Western Fwy and head north around the Ring Rd, but I missed an exit and ended up on the Westgate Bridge, then had a brief diversion off the Fwy and around the Convention Centre dropoff circle before getting back on the Fwy and through the tunnel. About the same amount of time to get home (if you ignore the 10 mins the convention centre diversion added) but a significantly more expensive and unpleasant trip.

I absolutely hate city driving, but I am finding the new van quite comfortable. And the side mirrors give much better visibility for changing lanes and merging than the car did.

I've decided I need to get really serious about my house hunting. I'm going to implement a spreadsheet.

why is it called footy when it is mostly played with hands?

quiz

5/10

My tongue has been hurting like a sore has grown from the tip to across the edges, some of the top, and the roof of my mouth somehow.

Hot food and drink is such a pain, I could kill for an iced coffee right now

so after a very very late lunch of leftover biryani I finished setting up the balcony

it's nice, the big plastic chairs are very comfortable and I reckon the table looks great painted
