I used to grow flowers to give to an ex of mine. She and her mum always complimented that they last so long. When she found out I didn't buy them she didn't like them any more lol.

Hahaha Jesus Christ man.

What? Growing flowers is loads more effort than just buying them.
If I pay $60 for a bunch of flowers, that's something like 1-2 hours work. Growing them? No idea how long that takes, but I bet it's longer than that.

It constantly amazes how many boomer hippy feminists are all into men taking the initiative, men paying, men treating them like a princess, the women see it as a power move
it enrages me
and it also enrages me how many men believe it too , they also see it as a power move
No one is treating the other as an equal , no one is talking , making plans together,
and it's not normal, it never was , successful relationships were always based on respect and equality even if there was division of labour
also, we have stop measuring people and actions in monetary terms
the home grown flowers are beautiful
but so can shop bought flowers be beautiful
it's all about intent of the giver
and the values of the recipient

Be careful of these types. She might try to sneakily set you up with some rando just so you ‘have someone’. Because they pity single people and think that’s doing you a favour.
Be careful of doing that too unless you want to pick up a hobosexual. Which you don’t. (Btw they come in every gender.)
Staying single and growing into yourself is a really good option.

Today I did 10,704 steps. I took the Minipeelers shopping for a gift for their dad (it's MrExPeelers birthday in a week or so) and we wandered all around Northland. When we got home I saw I'd done almost 8,000 steps, so I got out my trusty hand weights and did some step core and upper body exercises combined until I kicked it over the 10,000. Normally when I come home from an adventure with the kids I'm exhausted and want to go have a lie down, but my strength and endurance is slowly improving. Also my t-shirts seem to fit better. Yes! 💪🏼
tone212_@aussie.zone · 5 pts · 351d
Shopping is great cardio!
anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 351d
I’ve been meaning to start doing weights and am inspired by your progress
Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 351d
I should too but one thing at a time.
( maybe those ankle and wrist weights would be good for me??? )
Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 3 pts · 351d
You inspired me to buy a new fitness tracker. I got a new one, so cheap now and it's great, does everything I want.
Just guessing my 3km 3x a week hikes don't seem to take that many steps, maybe 5000 at most , and I walk slow but it's roughish terrain, I jump around on rocks and across very uneven ground so that seems to be helping my fitness. The tracker will tell me!!

I have finally submitted a slightly overdue assignment for my course. It's pretty rough, it's the last subject and I've really lost interest now. I just need to do one more assignment well enough to pass the subject and the Diploma is done though. I am looking forward to not having any more assignment deadlines hanging over my head.

BIL and his wife would be quite shitty if we didn't attend the BBQ they're having at FILs place. So I'll go with a mask on and tissues up my nose and we'll see how they feel then 😂

Road has been tripped, birthday person birthday'd. Smoke washed out of sinuses and tent drying. Kitties predictably broke into the food robot. Way too much time spent near Boyo's horrendous ex whom we were unaware would be in attendance. Hilarious small child not taught the meaning of the word Fucknugget 😝

Second this. Anywhere where there's not many people, and it's clearly visible that you are NOT being attacked. I would not recommend the reception area of your local police station cos screaming there could be misconstrued.

The black cat has been hanging around my place heaps and I’m not sure why. Is it the water, is he hunting, is he being social?
I can’t work out if he needs help but I can’t feed him or let him in.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 2 pts · 351d
cats have a wide territory, they just like to walk around, there might be a nice sleeping spot in your yard,
Eagle@aussie.zone · 2 pts · 351d
That and they can be assholes, and he's stirring Melbcat.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone · 5 pts · 352d
When Melbcat went to the sunspot in the other room I sunscreened her nose and quickly changed the bedding. Then I took the chance to vacuum behind the bed and bedside table, and re-scrub a stubborn spot where a drink had spilled.
I had to use the loud vacuum and the scented carpet cleaner plus keep the furniture off so the carpet could dry (towels then air). Melbcat came in really quickly to investigate though. She’s stressed about the rearrangement and tried to walk on the damp chemicals 😩
I’ve put a towel down with the furniture over it now and multiple windows and doors have been cracked the whole time to air out the perfume. Oh man it stinks. I have the kitty inhaler ready and will probably keep the fans on overnight.
My back definitely has an opinion about today.

Pots got a bit dry but there are sproots.
I wish I had more energy for constructive activities
Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 6 pts · 352d
I think you do lots of constructive things , they may be a small thing everyday but it's all adding up to good things
and I recall reading an autobiography by Bertrand Russell, writing about his method of creation
For a few years for a project he would study and study and get skills , then he would be tired, sated, feeling like he just couldn't do any more so he would rest on the project for 6 months.
That 6 months wasn't really rest at all, it was his mind working on how to use all the data and skills on his project, how to do his project, even changing what the project might be.
Then "rested" he would spend a few months in a frenzy of work .
But that study and rest was the real work, the getting it on paper was recording his work.

I hit our luggage suitcase last night and hurt my little toe. Now it's bruised and it hurts to walk a bit. I'm not sure if that means it's broken or not, but at least today will involve a bit of driving and not walking

I wish there was more good stuff on Tubi. I could try to crack into one of the books lying around but am kind of mentally tired and also can’t really crochet while I read if I wanted to.

RustyRaven@aussie.zone · 4 pts · 351d
Now that I don't have the looming deadline of an assignment to avoid I've started my cross stitch again. One of the kits is on black fabric and is counted instead of printed directly on the fabric so I can only manage short bursts when there is not too much distraction and I am not too tired. I'm just about at the point it needs to go away and I'll work on the easier one instead for a while. The easy one also has the advantage that it involves cats.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone · 1 pts · 351d
That's one to do in the daytime under lights and next to a window
what you can also do is make a grid pattern of ten squares by ten squares with a single white thread , remove white thread when finished
RustyRaven@aussie.zone · 1 pts · 351d
That would be the ideal conditions, but I have the cross stitch for an activity for work when there is not much happening - especially on night shifts. I'm thinking of taking in a little usb lamp I have with a bendy neck and adjustable brightness and light tone, it should make it a lot easier.
