    Double conditioner worked to keep this mop from frizzing and tangling. Think I’ll keep my hair longish, don’t want to end up looking like Edna Mode.

    Weird nightmare crew represent 🙌🏻🦠🧞‍♀️💍🩺💥

    typed it out then realised it was kinda gross

    I dreamt I had weird creatures/fungus/organisms all under my skin. It started with weird ant things coming out of my belly button the it was everything from giant green amoebas to insect type things to fungi. And one giant long thing up one leg that was a tracking device.

    Took forever to get to a doctor but he was helping me get them out. Then there was some guy chasing me oh and I had to get to a wedding.

    I am bloody exhausted. Off to check my whole body for weird pimples…(Shudder)……

      I had a weird nightmare but I forgot it.

      The other night I also had a weird nightmare involving zombies, a woodchipper, and a large and sturdy plate glass window.

    On the way to school my daughter came across a flock of little corellas. Of course she took snaps. I think they made her day. It’s also the last day of term so it’s double happiness ☺

      A couple of years ago I passed a flock of little corellas feeding on the grass at Latrobe Uni - they were eating bullants. Wtf? Only creature I’ve EVER seen eating bullants.

    A bit of a setback for Elder this morning. The welfare person at his school suggested we try next term for three morning sessions a week in class for an hour each time. When I mentioned it to Elder he had a meltdown, couldn’t sleep and now isn’t going to this morning’s meeting at all 😟😔 It seems like a bit of a leap from where he is now, and I only told him what it might look like and I didn’t push, but I guess it’s my fault and I feel like I’ve set him back by even mentioning it. His therapist actually suggested that online virtual schools might be the solution for now because he’s missed the whole first year of highschool up to this point, but the problem with that is Mr P is dyslexic and is not au fait with internet and tech and I have work, so there’d be nobody at home in a position to support him. I’m going to talk to my boss about more flexible hours (the financial planner in my head says, “but we need the money dammit!”), but I’m not optimistic as it is a factory job after all. Virtual Schools Victoria, aside from when the classes are held via video conferencing, are actually very flexible in their scheduling. Going to work now with all this running around in my head and had to put it somewhere 🤯😵‍💫

    Installing a little outdoor handrail for the p’s today. Just 5 steps.

    Safe to say I have no idea what I’m doing.

    I have watched the youchoobs though so with any luck they won’t fall down.

    Today is Crazy Day of Hell Week. EOFY can get in the bin. If you are thinking of seeing your accountant to sort out your finances, please do so last week or even better - last month. Today is too late for anything to happen this financial year.
    Now I just have to convince the general public of that requirement.

      I can imagine. The superannuation group on Facebook has been filled with people thinking about making last minute contributions and being shocked to find out the funds have processing timelines and it is already too late. Forward planning is something many people lack.

    Watched some of The Piano Teacher last night. I remember catching a scene from it on SBS years ago and I always wondered what the movie was.

    There should be Steam life achievements for figuring out things like this

    Gratitude thread!

    Today I’m seeing my friend who I haven’t seen in six months (she lives in Sydney) and she’s going to surprise another one of my friends :)

    Also I was greeted by the doggo when I woke up this morning, which is a rare occurrence. I believe he sees me as lower than him on the food chain hahaha

      I’m grateful for, once again, my cat.

      For the Monash Legal Clinic in assisting me to get that 9 year shoplifting charge off my record once and for all.

      And for the fact that I’ve been able to get some interview experience this week. (Also have possible interviews next week as well).

      He’s also wondering if you’ll whip out a snack from somewhere cos he’s been a good boy.

      I’m cooking Korean fried chicken today so I’ll be grateful if they turn out good.

      Have a great day with your friends! ♥

      I am grateful for rest and being old and smart enough to occasionally take time out. It’s been an emotional and tiring couple of weeks (visiting family is great but there’s always some grief waiting) but I taking a couple of days before I head back to work and I really needed it. Just exercise, rest, nature time.

    Whenever I plug something into the usb charger thingy, it reminds me of a conversation I had with my husband.

    Me: Um, it’s Flashing! panicked voice
    Him: It’s ok. They’re just talking to each other. What do you think is going to happen, blow up?
    Me: Yes. Flashing means danger!

    In all fairness to me, he has cautioned me about plugging things into the right chargers. Something about volts or something. I don’t know. I don’t always listen.

    I usually just ask "do I use my phone charger, my watch charger or the blue flash one.

    Got the nerves a bit today waiting for a call about the job from Tuesday.

    Trying to distract myself pretty much.

    Fingers crossed 🤞🏾

    That thread on the melbourne sub about the guy who had the mattresses dumped in his yard really makes me mad that the EPA, Council or Police won’t do anything about it. They’re just letting a scummy business owner get away with it.

    Bloody white-ass boomers pushing their way onto PTV. Everyone else stood to the side, but these four just had to make sure they got the seats they wanted… Even though there was only, like, 10 of us on the platform, who got on a whole ass train.

    And they call my generation ungrateful and mannerless. Pfft.

    Auditing my take away coffee cops since I can get a discount if I use it, people seem to be accepting them again and lets face it tinyest is FAR more likely to get me crook anyway. Turns out I need 2 lids and 2 rubber bands. A new glass one is 30 something bucks, so wanna assume what the lids and bands cost? Yep. 50 bucks. Far out. So much for environmentally friendly. Mrs swears she has seen them in op shops but I never have, can anyone confirm? Or did anyone find a cheaper way to get replacement parts?
