Melbourne

Good start to the day, Marketplace buyer showed up & was very friendly. I have a couple more that will hopefully show up today too - I'll have to convert all my cash to proper digital money soon! 💰 💰 💰

I'm really hoping some more cupboards sell soon, I'd like to be able to use my carport again. If any are remaining after this weekend I think I'll put them up free on the Buy Nothing group.

Left over beef ragu pasta for lunch and I am so excited. Hurry up, 1:30pm.

Also wondering at what point I'll snap and stop making sensible decisions and run away to Europe for a month.

Kiwifruit chilli chutney has been bottled. Tastes pretty good. Flavours along the line of a sweet chilli sauce, just a bit chunkier (and greener!)

For some dumb reason I clicked on a spider IG. Now my IG is full of spider-related content.

Like BIG spiders…

What's everyone's favourite dessert?

If it's cake I'd say chocolate for me or black forest as long as it doesn't have cheese in it.

I also like making a bowl of jelly with fruits in it.

Tv Review. Poker Face on Stan. This is like Colombo. A crime is shown to the audience and the main character, Charlie , manages to figure it out using her ability to detect lies and inconsistencies and find clues. Unlike Colombo it's original, Colombo was a copy of Les Diaboliques.

I like these shows, half the genius is developing all the situations where the main character is put in the situation of catching the bad guy/solving the crime.

This series has a lot of potential.

3.5 hobbits. Next series there may be less violence and less drinking on camera and then it will get broader appeal and 4 hobbits

ffs I have been banned for 3 days from one of the fossil reddits ..lol. Some nonce posts a picture of a blue rock he got from Blue Rock Beach and asks if it's a fossil.

It's a blue rock.

more reddit adventures

antivaxxer is harassing me

and horribly cruel mocking political post against a poor white woman , for her looks and race, is allowed to stand

Clients asking me if I can do their work for cheaper. No! I give you a fair price right up, this isn't a negotiation. Yet I feel the need to say, yes of course I can do it cheaper. Then I come across as a pushover and the next time I do work for them, they'll ask for cheaper again.

It's literally raining here and it's not on the radar. 🫥

It is now raining harder.

I ended up with more kiwi fruit this week, so I am going to try a small batch of kiwifruit chilli chutney.

Edit: Chutney is currently cooking. I had a preliminary taste and it is hot.

It’s going to be a blood agreement sandwich kinda day

Someone might take the big couch off me today. Please turn up this evening for the love of God. It would be such a relief.

anyone else also turn the heater on out of sheer stubbornness rather than change out of shorts? I'm blaming the weather for being a tease. it got me in the mood and now its changed its mind? Too bad, I am wearing the shorts and I am going to enjoy it.

I put a book in my satchel, today I start reading on PT 👍

Waking up to the sound of rain, the rubbish truck and birds chirping.

What could be more Australian?

Oh and a fender bender at the top of my court. No one hurt but definitely both drivers were at fault.

And got the 3s all this morning. Added to the 3am fright:

• No rain forecast last night for this morning. Got wet otw to work.
• Spicy cough going round at work. Back to masks.

Can we just not today. 😑
