Sunday. 18th. Backdating. Lamb roast for dinner. With epic leftovers.



Monday. Spent some time trying to get caught up with all the stuff that got dropped last week because of all the disasters. Saw my birds at lunch which was nice. From 5pm spent some more time working on last week's issue. Stu was home late as well. Finished some leftover pork for dinner and The Simpsons, but then it was only half an hour before I had to log back on to do even more work. So no photo labelling.
Tuesday. Woke up at 4am to pee but never got back to sleep. Sigh. Managed to rescan half a dozen slides, but not the dusting and vacuuming. Zombie day all day. Certainly didn't feel up to any photo labelling.
Wednesday. Even though I was zombie tired I still took an hour to get to sleep. But slept through til 5:30 (helped by being a bit dehydrated). Ok day. Managed about 90 photos labelled, so a nearly a week behind now.
Thursday. Accidentally knocked this off my desk while I was dusting and it smashed everywhere. George gave me this years and years ago - it was sort of like a thermometer where the warmer it got the further through the piping the liquid would go.

Ok day. Fairly slow morning but crazy afternoon. Dumb episode of the X Files (Ascension). Dumb issues, like the guy had an all night head start, but they got caught up with him pretty quickly. Or like a cable car operator being able to control the speed of the car, rather than from the terminals. Is that even a thing? Or being able to infinitely zoom and enhance low res pics (a pet peeve of mine). Although it was cool to see Gillian Anderson's actual pregnant belly.
Friday. Had a random day off which was pretty amazing. Did all my usual "Saturday" morning stuff. Then attacked some unpleasant stuff - organising a heater service, someone to look at the leaky shower, etc. After lunch spent a couple of hours tidying up the garage and organising stuff to get rid of. Fried leftover pizza for dinner, the Simpsons, and then we watched Nanette (CRD had invited us to she Hannah Gadsby's show Saturday night, but Stu had his first covid jab on Friday and we didn't want to commit).
Saturday. Woke up at ~3am, but didn't get back to sleep for ~2 hours :( Slept in til 7:20 and a very slow start. This is Dumbo progress as of Saturday morning.

This is showing how I cheat by doing one half atop the other.

Didn't get much else done in the morning. Stu was tired too from his jab. But we did head out - got some lunch, dumped some stuff at Lifeline and Green Shed, and did some food shopping. But we went to Coles at Gungahlin so everything is a different place and it was super crowded and it was a pretty horrible experience. Came home and pretty much just collapsed in a heap and didn't really get much else done all day. Watched the last episode of Diagnosis and did a bit of photo labelling. Watched Wild with the sweetie, based on a true story about Cheryl Strayed hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. Even a few been-theres.
Sunday. Slept ok for a change. Cleaned the shower and tidied the house in the morning. Managed to get Dad's day 25 photos labelled and a fish tank water change done.
Mid Sunday jigsaw progress

From 3pm it was cooking non-stop for three hours. Cooked up a kilo of mince with bacon, onion and garlic. And made a peppermint slice. And a penne arribbiata bake. Listened to Fantasia 2000 soundtrack. Twice.

In the evening felt like watching something fun, so we watched an episode of the new season of The Movies that Made us - this one on Jurassic Park. Stu said he liked the content but not the silly way it was presented. Oh well. Also how good are TED-Ed talks - suits my attention span (five minutes haha).
