    Got my first payslip after dropping to part time. Yes, it looks a little sadder, but given how bone tired I am right now I absolutely cannot wait to lie in bed and stare at the ceiling in complete silence tomorrow morning. Just need to watch the spending a little closer.

      Dropping to part time was one of the best mental things I ever did. Yes it’s a money ouch, but not as bad as I thought it might be.

        That’s good to hear… I’m reducing my hours next year and am a bit worried about handling the cut in pay. I’ve lived on way less in the past so know I can do it, and am hoping for less burnout, too 🤞🏼

          Empty it (obvs) and and flush it through with warm water from the white tip end out the open tap. You can use some gentle hand soap, nothing as harsh as dishwasher liquid. We usually tell people to do that in the shower. Rinse all the soap out. You can use 1:8 vinegar/water to flush out if you think its smelly. Put the cap back on the white tip, leave the end tap open and hang it somewhere to drip dry. Keep it up off the floor.

    super shallow post incoming

    the flies and other flying bugs are bad here especially down at the beach, I’ve found using cologne scented shampoo has helped somewhat

    would it be too much scent/icky to also use 4711 soap and maybe some extra eucalyptus in my laundry liquid? I don’t want to go the deet route and since the bugs here are clean biters I don’t have a need to

      You could just pour some 4711 cologne into a little plastic spritz bottle to lightly spray over your clothes. If that’s a bit expensive Florida Water (some Asian shops sell knockoffs) or rosewater might be more bang for your buck.

      That might be a risk for attracting bees though
