So much to do today. Last day in this apartment and then off to the new house. 🙂
I expect to see LOTS of beach pictures!
there will be 🙂
and the marine reserve/wetlands park too
I can’t wait to take Ted on a walk to the beach in his cat pusher … lol
but i’m really going there to work and work as hard as I can , i’ll be a half shut in n/k
It’s so good. I haven’t been down the water today but the air smelled beachy when I headed outside. Even that is nice
yes it is and being near the beach is quieter too 🙂
Ooh exciting.
I too demand beach piccys :)
Have sad.
Cleaned my little balcony/sunroom and moved the plants around. That was a good job. I am hoping that I will medidate more now that space feels less run down . . But am so tired lately I just can’t get through my basic chores. And have bad anxiety about work this week (just overloaded for reasons beyond anyone’s control).
Gaaah. Just needed to vent.
Hugs mate, from a fellow not getting on top of things type person. We’ll get there! 💪🏼
Thanks.
My team won a game. By a lot. 💙🤍💙🤍💙
I watched the game. Your team did very well.
Best I’ve seen of them in awhile.
🩵
Did you tip them?
Because I wouldn’t have 😂
Nah, I didn’t tip them sadly. Might need some evaluating in the future though if they can do it again.
Season is a bit weird, some teams having odd crappy weeks of play already.
I’ve done too much doom scrolling this morning. Now that my morning coffee is kicking in I think it’s time to switch to my book. It’s one of the old fashioned paper varieties, and although the content is interesting having to constantly hold it open is tedious, the screen resolution is not that great and there is no ability to change the font size in settings.
I think it’s time for me to have a break from alcohol for a while.
I tried that. The trial separation turned into divorce. Alcohol and I bump into each other occassionally at parties and have stilted polite conversations, but we are no longer in a relationship. 10/10 Highly recommended.
It’s too damned expensive anyway. I’d love a drink, but I like not spending the money on it even more.
ditto. I took a break one day for “just a bit” and never went back. Have a glass extremely occasionally, but don’t miss it a jot.
24 days of Lent left…
e: Seven days left of lentish.
Goodnight all. Glad to see the arse end of this weekend tbh. Such awesome weather and I still felt like it was one step forward and two back in my pursuit of domestic glory lol. At least I got most of the laundry done I guess 🤷🏼♀️ Catchya on the flipside 🤙🏼
Domestic glory be dammed… I spent the whole weekend avoiding all domestic chores and traipsed the city eating and shopping instead. I’ll pay for it later in the week, and had to scrounge through the unfolded laundry for work and school uniforms, and the house looks like a bomb hit it.
I like your style Eagle! In fairness to myself, I could spend the entire weekend cleaning and the place would still look like we’d been robbed 😆
Oh mine does too! Too many people and too much stuff. And pets! And the housework will always be there!
Can’t sleep, just spent a few hours tossing and turning.
Apparently I’m up in time to hear the local meth heads lose their minds in the alley 😂 late night snack and a ‘radio’ show it is!
the council or who ever are doing road works in the alley at night
and during the day there are 3 houses directly my neighbours undergoing loud renovation, another neighbour is doing stinky painting
getting tired of this
Back to bed to read and listen to the birds? Don’t mind if I do.
Sounds good to me!
Got band rehearsal in Dandenong today. Suuuuper long mission to get there but I’ve been putting it off for a week.
Alrighty, gonna finish this coffee then vacc the back bedroom and living room, and go over the hallway again.
$32 vacc is getting used and abused today!
I did the same thing when I got a fancy dyson lol
I’ve been sucking up bastard cocoons and unlucky moths haha!
Gotta wait for mein liebe to wake up so he can help me move the couch and I can get under there too lol.
I wish my big fat 2nd hand Dyson didn’t die, but here we are
stress and optimism
Have been waking up at 4am almost every night over the past few weeks. Probably stressed about all the undone things, and the uncertainty of the future. I can manage this by breaking tasks down even further. Having 100s of pages of readings to do and five 2k word assignments is a recipe for overwhelm.
Tomorrow, I will be looking at my calendar and prioritising stuff. Also setting achievable tasks for the week. This is my time to prove to myself that I CAN do time management.
Also mindfulness. That involves listening to music, playing music, and engaging my senses.
Had a big cry today, which I hope will be the culmination of the rude night time awakenings. I’ve cried 19 times YTD, compared to 38 times last year and 25 times in 2023. I am SO glad I no longer have Wrong Relationship-itis.
Peace ✌️
Peace and hugs. You got this
You got this! I believe in you and sending you all my good vibes!
hugs,
Yeah the little rotary tool doesn’t have enough power to enlarge the little drilled holes with the grinder bit.
Bunnings has an Ozito drill for $50 but can I justify it… I would have to buy separate drill bits too and not sure if universal
I bought cheapo corded ozito one and was very surprised it worked so well (going through thick metal posts). I think the bit was almost as expensive as the drill heh. I rate them.
Would there be a particular bit or set to buy? If I get one I only need something cheap and basic for general use
I think the cheap sets (any really) will do the trick but for more dense stuff I usually use/buy the more expensive ones individually as I keep on breaking the cheaper ones lol. It’s a graveyard of incomplete sets here :(
Thanks, it wouldn’t be anything too heavy here
We did 90% of our renos with an aldi bit set. Just get a mid set and update the bits you need as you wear them
Ozito is rubbish, but fine for occasional household use. Bits and batteries are where the real money adds up. Boyo has Pro level gear but still covets the variety of bits that came with my now 20yo GMC set.
Ozito is rubbish
Poor ozito, tryin’ its hardest. Not loved, only tolerated.
Ozito is not rubbish. Ozito are rebanded einhells. I’ve got a rotary hammer drill i’ve been abusing 15 years straight that is still punching holes in concrete. And their return policy if you do get a dud is generous as hell
I’m over my uni fieldwork for sure (it’s such a long drive just to get to the start of this second section…) but what I do love is that it’s a good few hours off my device; and these past two nights I’ve been meeting my old school friend visiting from overseas, which has been a really really good balm for my soul…
…my lack of hydration earlier in the day is definitely catching up with me though. Owwww headache owwww… back out in the field for work tomorrow so I need an early night…
I gave 100 bucks of frozen steaks and chicken and an unopened huge bag of japanese rice to the nice neighbours 🙂
Legend 🙌🏼
I don’t know what to do. I have work to catch up on today but I have been resisting it all day. Got the washing done and been for a walk. Just want to lie here and finish my book and then prep food for the week. I can never judge if I need to rest or am being lazy. Or maybe I always feel like I am lazy.
Stuff it. I will just work long days during the week. I will need to anyway and it will be worse if I am not prepped and rested
