    Miniest is on school camp and I’ve never been separated from her overnight before. I feel a bit lost tbh so I’m stretching and folding sourdough bread dough to keep me occupied. It’ll be good for her to have this time to develop as a person, but I miss her so much. She’s one of these little people that seem to fill up life. 🍞🍞🍞

    The break room at work smells strongly of garlic, so now I’m craving garlic bread.

    When pushing hard means winning, peace amd quiet feel like losing. It’s been on my mind lately.

    Goodnight all ❤️

      Have you read Sun Tzu? Yep, the Art of War bloke from yonks ago China. Very good at making a clear distinction between what constituted winning and losing. And the distinction is often not what you think.

      Interesting. I’ve always felt the opposite. Peace and quiet is winning. Constantly fighting means loosing.

        That had never even crossed my mind. We must come from, and live in very different circumstances.

    So windy today an orchid plant was blown out of it’s pot!

    I saw a pelican fly backward and then give up, turning around and then landing.

    I had some fermentation flies take up residence in my compost bucket and kitchen, so I made a trap for them which has worked very well. I have a jar of drowned flies and haven’t seen any flying around the kitchen today. The trap is a funnel on top of a glass jar, and the bait is vinegar, sugar and yeast mixed with water.

      I think you’ve just solved the mystery of what flies are in my house! Always thought they were thrips, although they didn’t exactly match. I’ve found a glass with vinegar and a few drops of dishwashing liquid to work pretty well as a trap, too

    I just saw a bird flying sideways. This could be the basis for a new wind strength scale…

    I blame the weather for how ratty this office is today.

    Though I’ve also noticed that I’m also reporting how ratty the office is, so maybe it’s just a ratty office. I’m the self appointed cheerleader though.

    Picked up the laybuy for the kids’ birthdays and christmas today. On the way out I went through the self serve and the camera picked up the laybuy in my trolley. So it’s good to know that tracking stuff is in use already, if I kept my trolley out of view it wouldn’t have seen the stuff still in there.
