    uh oh.

    So you get used the normal sounds of creaks and groans of the place you’re at. With the new place going up next door (and the shitload of excavation then concrete) this place is sounding different. Just heard a big crack and err yea… walk outside and

    path was done (really well) a year before they started.

    umm

    hrmm

    Guess it calls for a rave choon truly a rave choon for everything these days.

    Lovely day out there though.

    Also found the little messages people left from the partay. That was nice :) Glad to see the gyoza got a mention. That was nagi’s recipe from recipetin. She never misses.

    Also whoever drank the lion’s share of the vodka needs some hydralyte, paracetamol and TLC today :)

    Glad to hear the party went well! Hopefully I can join on another occasion. Was glorious weather today. Managed to get some gardening done, and then cleaned out my shoe stack. Some going in the bin and a couple for donation, shoe rack in wardrobe is much neater now.

    Cow cat let me pat her again until she came to her senses and was like “are you touching me?!?!”.

    I’ve packed a bag of stuff to take to the hospital in case I have to go again in a hurry. Headphones, chargers, kindle, adhd pills and so on.

    Have a mate that will feed Gibson for me if need be and someone to feed the strays as well.

    Got to have safety nets in place.

    Big day. After the expo we went to this local community festival that was meant to just be in/lunch/out, but got caught up looking at everything else there. Gave the kids an early one and I’m feeling done

    I patted the cow cat and she looked at me like “what’s happening right now?”

    Mind you this is after almost 2 years of feeding lol

    Also 2 weeks since I quit smoking. Yay!

    I just googled my old place, and saw they’ve flipped the place very quickly. It looks amazing, and it’s gone from a two bedroom to three. I’m happy to see my bamboo and cherry tree kept their places.

    Funnily enough what inspired me to do a search was an article in the Age about dodgy real estate agents buying houses cheaply from their own vendors to flip for profit. It would not surprise me at all to find there was a touch of that with this place - not completely dodgy like the guys in the article, but probably a quick easy sale at a lower price than it could have gotten because the seller is an absent old lady who is easy to persuade to sell for a low price. But to be honest I don’t really care much even if that did happen, I’m just happy we’ve got her into a good place now and the future path with any care needs is all mapped out, the whole situation with moving a parent and myself and selling two houses at the same time was all a bit much happening at once.

    Going to the local psychic and wellbeing expo today, if it doesn’t get cancelled due to unforseen circumstances of course

    Yesterday we went to Kaprica for lunch. The spaghetti vongole was delicious. 10/10.

    Afterwords , we had a look at the Westwood/Kawakubo exhibition at NGV. Fashion designers and their work don’t move me like artists from other disciplines and their creations.

    I still don’t know why that is.

    I think they’re doing a lottery giveaway at the expo. What’s the point, shouldn’t they already know who the winner is?

      😂

      You could go around saying you’re feeling lucky and you should be a winner. Someone might feel sorry for you and give you something for free. Then you’ll be the psychic.

        Y’know, according to Alan Moore’s logic I’m already a magician because I work in marketing. My 9-5 is spent mystically influencing people by auguring the favour of the unknowable Meta algorithm

    OOhh.Sunday Pakige! I wonder what this one is?

    Edit: turned out to be my shower stool. I will now be able to wash my feet properly without getting stuck sitting on the floor and struggling to get back up because there is no room to manoeuvre in there.

        That’s been my general approach too, but it’s not been the most stable approach. Especially when I’ve been working in the garden and they’ve gotten filthy and need a good scrub. Which is why I tried the sitting down approach at one point, but on a slippery surface with no hand holds and very little space getting up again was a bit challenging. Now I can either sit down or have something to put my foot on, I consider it a big improvement.
