Everyone here and SO's welcome.

    Been chatting to the cousin on messenger.

    Mixed feelings. That side of the family were, let's say, less than supportive after my mum passed away.

    But he needs help, being in a country by yourself can be tricky without support.

    I wish you all the best of luck.

    You are both so brave too. ๐Ÿ˜˜

    ( do not recommend being in a country on your own. It's pretty awful when you literally have no next of kin to put on forms ๐Ÿ˜”)

    Cheers :)

    Yeah it makes things harder. I don't have a wife and kids to worry about so my experience will be different to his.

    He's in Sydney so I'm heading over in a few weeks. I haven't been so it'll be cool to see a new city.

    Sounds like he's not actually moving into your house with you. That may make things a bit easier. Also Sydney is very different from Melb in the small details. Open communication lines may be the best way to help navigate a relationship. Best of luck!

    Remind me to look into training the city's ravens to find money and jewellery

    Just make sure you pay appropriate wages. Plus penalty rates for weekends and night shift. We are unionised, you don't want to get on the wrong side of the flock.

    spent 20 minutes doing some tidying in the back garden and feel better for it

    it's just a small amount of work and the place is still a mess but it's something

    Interesting venue last night. Good sound, interesting back rooftop area with lotsa plants. Lotsa people which is odd for that music. Wasn't expecting that.

    Go to pay for a beer, first thing that comes up on the eftpos that you have to get past is choosing a tip.

    Nope.

  • Rain not far away. I'm feeling nearly as lucky as Force becos the laundry got 90% dry already - just needs a short buzz in the dryer. Yay me!

    Took the kids to swimming then a pretty perfect trifecta after. In the industrial area where my work is a new playcentre opened in one if those identical warehouse blocks. The block up from that had a trading card place for the girlfriend to look at. And the block up from that has a cannoli and panini place we went to for lunch instead of shitty placecentre food.

    Then we cam home and watched Ghostbusters, the kids' latest obsession

    That would be amazing, thank you so much!! I got so excited when I saw the trinket that I screenshotted, eep!! So glad you got some brilliant wins, I went into Queensbridge Square and got squat (but could actually do the raids, so wooooo!!!), but just enjoyed seeing the different clothes and merch people were rocking. Made sure to take my Tokyo Station Pickachu with me!

    Pretty impressed with the robot vacuum cleaner. It was making some noises I didn't like so I flipped it over and took out a Q-tip and an elastic band in the brush head. It was still making sounds so I opened it up and found a little 3D printed articulated dog and a whole clothespeg lodged in there. These things can put away some junk

    I really like mine, it gets under the beds and furniture well. Just have to use it often, clean it often, and sometimes use the big vacuum cleaner for the edges of the room

    I didn't expect it to fix all our cleaning problems but it makes thing so much easier. It feels great to walk out of the bedroom after the kids go to sleep and the floor is clean.

    And I was telling one of my kids how we still have to clean up before the vacuum cleaner runs so it doesn't eat something that makes it sick

    Spent today blobbing around and watching the clouds build up listening to an audiobook..I'm about half way through Clare North's songs of Penelope trilogy which is basically what Penelope did while Odysseus was off doing the odyssey. Four out of five hobbits.

    A late night and early morning reading The Testaments by Margaret Atwood. I recently re-read The Handmaid's Tale because I'd read it for uni decades ago and forgotten a lot of it, and was interested enough to read the sequel. Thoroughly enjoyed both books.

    Have you seen the TV series? As someone who hasnโ€™t read the books, interested to know how it compares.

    The first season is very close. I've not read Testaments, but the show goes off into its own world after then. I find the fact the handmaid never has a name a feature of the book that the show misses, though I understand why they changed that.

    IDC what anyone says, I love Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel.

    I wanted to play as Claptrap since playing the first game 10,000 years ago. This game gave me that dream.

    He's so annoying, I love him

    Solid dinner tonight, randomly ran into relatives we haven't seen in over 10 years.

    I teared up a bit. My kids met some cousins first time today. Straight away added each other on social media. Verdict so far is they're chill.

    Can't ask for much more.
