(maybe) last of the Kelpie patient transport runs today. He got full marks for being the best pup for the hospital staff. Little mate had surgery to remove the cyst near his spine and is back at his home full of all the best drugs for pain relief and to get on-top of the infection. Apparently he is already demanding action but also waaay too sore and stoned to actually move.
seeing through time
Aww.
Sending good vibes for Kelpie!
The air is thick and humid, and I am moist.
I am attempting Edwardian politeness about this
I am attempting the Plantagenet era…
Chaucer said it best…
“Her hosen weren of fine scarlet red, / Full strait y-tied, and shoes full moist and new.”
G U S H I N G
My weather gauge says 87% humidity here.
am feeling weird , kinda spacey , I am so out of sorts , I lost my home which I did enjoy, I should say my house 😢
You probably gonna be out of sorts for a while but you’re safe and you have the young seagoons and Bill Cat for support. Chin up. Take each day as it comes. We love you and we support you too. 🫂❤️
thanks
Another aftershock I reckon. Make a list of all the good things happening right now. And EAT SOMETHING! Amazing how much more grounded one feels with a peanut butter & jam sammo on board. Or whatever. Something calorie rich and enough real nutrition that you need not feel guilty about it. And how much of that incipient guilt was due to external factors that no longer apply?
If there’s one thing I’ve learned about recovery, it’s that the necktop processing unit can be convinced fairly easily, but it takes a LOT longer to convince the gut level reactor. So make it easy for the gut level reactor to join the party.
This is not a time to worry about minor consequences that can be corrected later. Imo it’s more important to feed the whole woman. And if that involves chocolate, it’s still all good.
I am just sad
been homeless so long , yes, I have a roof,
but for a long time it was temporary while I planned escape , didn’t have a bed and have been unsafe, so never felt like it was much of a home
i miss the beach too
Spring Halloween vibes 🌸💀
Gorgeous! The Michelangelo of nails.
OMG
WTF
LIKE, WTAF.
Girl (ghouuuuul), you fuckin’ COOKED with these!!! Please, teach me your ways!! (literally peeled my nails off after 24 hours)
Eeeee!! I usually use a thin paintbrush, and I did for a few of these. Otherwise I used the thin side of the polish brushes to do the plants on my right hand, the petals are from those same polish brushes but with as much of the polish scraped off them. I’m surprised they came out legible at all on that hand 😂 thank you!
Ooooh 👻
ACHTUNG! HALT! GEFAHR! NAIL POLICE HERE…
Looks great! :)
The universe hates me. I’ve just gotten over my cold, now I’ve got a migraine. I was supposed to work tonight and had to call in sick, which is aggravating because I lose the penalty rates.
Comrade. I too have post illness headache. :(
The sound of the rain is nice.
strong but short hailstorm here
Hey umm, not sure about if I missed anything because I’ve stepped back from social media somewhat these days, but has anyone heard anything from Melba? Account says last post/comment was 5 months ago. Do they have a new account? I know the loss of Melbcat was deeply felt. I think of them from time to time. Just wondered if anyone knew anything?
I reached out a few times. They were also stepping back from social media. Melbcat passed which was hitting them hard. I hope they’re well if they’re lurking.
Another DTer has reached out with no response - that was a few weeks ago. Can’t recall the name offhand. No word since then.
Thanks for the answer. I’ve sent a direct message after dithering about reaching out because I’m not very good at it 🙁
Guess we’ll just have to wait and see. I hope all is well, and that Melba is just taking a holiday from us lunatics.
Same 🤞🏼
I hope so too.
I hope she replies to you. Because she was in a very difficult state after the loss of Melbcat, and sounds like some chronic health issues and difficult neighbour issues, it was very stressful for her. Her tone was very worrying. I very much hope she is still around. I’m genuinely fearful and wish we could know she’s OK.
I also was worried about her tone, and all the worries and hardship she faced. It takes a lot of strength and guts to break into positives sometimes.
I’ve been looking to see if she has been posting here or reddit but I haven’t seen anything
and she chooses to be very private, it’s a worry because she wasn’t handling her cat passing well at all
Today is do housework and stuff day. Might even do some nail polish.
Made some coriander / mint chutney last night for the first time.
Almost like the stuff from indian joints… so close.
Think I will freeze the excess coriander in icecube trays, 1/3 in water, 1/3 in lemon, rest in avo. or peanut oil.
Tonight we attempt coriander pesto.
Slowly get my stuff done but it will be done.
I’m off to a wedding reception tonight. In my handbag I have - my phone, lip gloss, small mirror, fan, vape, tissues and a bottle opener. Am I missing anything?
Can’t think of anything. Maybe a purse pack of perfume. Powder.
Powder good idea.
Powder good idea.
Which sort is the question 🎉
The kind that goes on the nose not up it.
yes
nose powder
Cab voucher. Or whatever the Uber information is nowadays. I presume you and your husband will be celebrating the wedding properly? (🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻) Maybe an emergency bottle of tabasco sauce for your husband (just in case).
The Uber driver is also my make-up and hair stylist so all good there.
He can carry his own sauce.
Safety pin, bandaid, headache pill
Bandaid and panadol, done. Thank you.
Ibuprofen, 1/2 hour with food before you git down on da d-floor and show everyone how it’s done.
Will do because Turkish weddings are loud af. Might pull out a couple of belly dancing moves. Ibuprofen helps with the hips.
Might save someone’s night with a little sewing kit or a tampon. A hip flask of good booze. A museli bar.
I’m gonna need a backpack.
You sound well prepared, nothing to add, have fun!
Weather spicy
strong rain, lost of thunder , the gardens need it
100%, my big old lemon tree is taking lots of water while it’s fruiting and the roses out front have been suffering a bit.
All of the spicy weather went around us 😭
I just received a midnight dog food delivery. Mr Woof slept through the whole thing.
I have decided to stop buying the bulk bags which I have been dividing up into containers for the freezer, instead I’m paying more for smaller bags I can put straight into the freezer. I think it was a good decision. It’s a lot less hassle.
Fast moving storms approaching from the north. If planning on going out, check the radar.
And take your puffer!!! (Meds not jacket)
Good move. I went out today for a few hours and it just felt awful, like there was no freshness or oxygen to the air or something.
If planning on going out
Gotta get back too… 🙃
Got sprung on my evening walk. Just a bit damp.
PSA: IMPORTANT. Activate your survival plans IMMEDIATELY! Civilisation is on the brink of imminent collapse.
ALERT ALERT ALERT
ALDI has sold out of sardines of every variety. No more expected in the Norfcote store for a couple of weeks at least.
So I went to Colesworth instead. They didn’t have many left either. What is the world coming to?
Shit you not lol
Wot the everloving Fuck
Was curious to see if there was anything on the shortage.
Was not what I was expecting 🤔
This calling stuff ‘maxxing’ crap can get in the bin.
PSA still valid imo.
Very valid… had no idea sardines of all things would be in short supply.
