Ohooo His Lordship's Hard Lemonade turned out harder than expected, we have a basement brewery full of very silly middle aged people who are gonna regret tomorrow!
Took my t-shirt off slightly wrong this morning and tweaked something in the upper middle of my back, has been hurting me since ๐ญ getting old(er) sucks
Nah you're still young cos you know how you hurt yourself. Getting old is when one minute you're fine and next minute you suffer an injury and you didn't even do nuffin
Welcome to Middle age!!! Where getting up to walk to the bathroom may leave you paralysed on the ground from back spasms lol
dinner tonight is snozzages with mustard, onion and shrooms on bread
followed by mango frozen treats
tomorrow's dinner will be the same because I cooked extra
Back in Melbourne. Fortunately the heat isn't so bad and we got back before the worst of it
What are we all up to today? I think I am gonna wash sheets and doona, and prep some food. A slightly slow but productive day hopefully. Thought about heading into the rally but I am not up for crowds.
Hanging out with partner and mate, still recovering from wedding shenanigans on sat night lol
Super chill day, as tomorrow will be too fucking hot and I gotta go to work lol
Gonna have some snags in bread, relax, read a book, not much else. Partied the last 4 days. Lol.
going thru the new train tunnel and shopping at daiso and miniso
then home to do my UnKAOS
Need to unKAOS but am also feeling very, very lazy. So clothes washing and gaming it will probably be! Maybe some craft time later.
Tidying up around the house, thereโs crap everywhere after a busy week. Dealing with laundry. Watering the indoor plants. Gym & pool in the afternoon. Have a massive pasta craving so will make for dinner. Then tennis watching & chill.
I havenโt been feeling well so probably some more rest. Maybe some tidying tonight if I have enough energy
Sheets washed, shopping done.
Pretty fucked today, so in bed rest of the day
Being an allergic snot monster, avoiding wilfully ignorant persons, and possibly some minor concreting.
I'm working on pizza duty tomorrow so resting as much as possible. Did some laundry though.
Back to melbs today.
Looks like they've upped the forecast tm to 44.
hrmm..
So. Lesson learned.
If you go to the gym after 2 weeks off, and are not eating meat, you had better make sure you a shit load of good food afterwards, otherwise you wake up homicidal.
Cat tax

Oh yeah! I promised some ideas didn't I? First get a good protein powder for smoothies after gym. Don't really have a recommendation here though.
Good protein options
If you make bolognaise then you can swap out mince for lentils. Use brown or red or a mix.
Derek Samo on YouTube has a bunch of good vegan stew recipes and tips. rainbow plant life is ok but sometimes she just has too many ingredients and I can't be bothered.
In my case, late partner. We were 6 years old, and entered primary school at the same moment. Literally hand in hand at our parents insistence. We hated each other, and never failed to provoke each other during lessons. Secondary school was separate, and he developed a series of crushes on tall blonde anglos with money. After his marriage to a tall blonde anglo girl (also in the same primary school intake) failed, he spent maybe 7-8 years discovering that he needed to learn manners. Preferably good manners, but that took a bit longer. During that time I had a failed marriage with a marine biologist and some very low points in my life.
After that, we met up again and connected. 30+ years later I lost him to a drug-resistant golden staph infection during covid. Still miss the bastard. Even if I did need to teach him not to dictate to me IN MY OWN KITCHEN by pouring a panful of eggs & bacon over him in front of his kids. And he was an Essendon supporter - always a warning sign imo. But I rose to that challenge by embracing Carlton as my team of choice.
A group of us were meant to see a band together. Everyone else pulled out at the last minute except us two. It may have been a set up. Yadda yadda yadda. We've been together 30 years next week.
Ps. We knew each other before this but weren't really friends.
Pretty sure I already told this one. Quick Tuesday after work drink from a Sat online message. I accused him of flirting with lampposts. He didn't leave on Friday.
Ex fiance:
Traded guitar lessons for swimming lessons. Wasn't supposed to be a date.
Turned into a date lol
Known each other for years through mutual friends. One day I asked "so how's Boyo doing?" to the friend and she set up a group dinner after which I thought he hated me. After some messaging and a bout of illness we got our shit together and met up for coffee in which I verbal vomited the shit show that was my life. Somehow he thought that was pretty cool. I think he's pretty cool.
Doona washed and dried. Food prepped so minimal cooking needed this week. Aircon cranked up now and time to flop.
Metro tunnel report.
It's fast , really fast, it takes at least 30 minutes off my travel time from Footscray to the city.
Everything looks really clean and spacious. The escalators are high but there are lifts too of course.
4 hobbits
eyeshadow experiment continues
3 stick cream eyeshadows, shimmers in 3 tones of peach are a win
the pale blue powder is a no go, that went in the bin
tomorrow I start on the Goth palette , lots of sparkly silver and greys in that one
There this random vibration that I keep hearing. It happens out of nowhere sometimes then just stops.
It comes from outside, but I have no idea what it is.
So annoying.

I have the same thing happening here.
My second perfect vivillion from Germany. Perhaps @SpinMeAround@aussie.zone might like it when we hit that Trade level

Is it saying Maribyrnong because you got the egg in Germany and hatched it here?
That's awesome!!! Nicely done!! I need to grind mine, was looking over my bug collection earlier.

Iced peppermint tea and a nardoo bun please chef.
Sunny side up fried eggs on toast with half an avocado on the side please
fruit salad and a cup of tea please
Lying on the bed doing spider climbs, using the exercise band and doing hip bridges. This blows. I donโt think Iโm ever gonna get my old strength back.
Saw my Meetup profile is going to expire and get wiped but Iโm fine with that. The people at the groups were kinda weird.
Ah Melbcat is feeling a bit sick because sheโs been licking the antibiotic cream off her nose/lip. Called the emergency vet who says itโs ok to stop applying for now. Tomorrow the vet who prescribed it will be open to call.
Why do drongos celebrate this date? Should be ashamed of themselves.
