Sunday. 14th. Cooked up an epic feast for dinner/leftovers. There was a tuna bake, a broccoli/cauliflower bake, capsicum and broccolini with butter/lemon juice (which I stoopidly overcooked).
Then Mash and The Crown 6.7.
Monday. Slept relatively well! All. The. Rain. !! Ok day. Bit of planning for a new database we're hoping to get setup for notifications. Did an hour of weeding after work and Stu helped cook dinner which was nice. Then went for a walk up Mt Rogers.
I think I might get moist... (spoiler: I did!)
Then had a look at the Tassie map. Then it was bed time. WTF. Every day I want to do music, weed the garden, keep the house clean/tidy, cook dinners, exercise, process photos, plan holidays. Except I can only do a couple of those every day because work takes up too much damned time. And let's not even mention actually having fun and doing my hobbies. I. Do. Not. Have. Time. To. Go. To. Work. Sigh.
Tuesday.
Slept mostly ok although woke up at 4:45. Did housework for a HOUR before work. And some effing cat sprayed our laundry door. Buttplug.
Work. I dunno. Forty-five minutes of weeding after work. I rescued some geraniums that had been cut off the plant by accident a couple of weeks ago. Yeah these stems had been sitting on the ground for a couple of weeks, yet they were still flowering!! So I stuck em in water.
Stu cooked dinner of cabbage and bacon (and I threw in the last of some leftover turkey).
Tried to finish the jigsaw we started on the weekend, but it's such terrible quality it was pretty much impossible. It's made of soft plastic and you have to force the pieces together even when they're correct. Now imagine pieces that are *almost* identical in shape, so you literally have no idea whether they're correct or not. I got down to four pieces left a couple of times but they just would not go in. Stoopid.
Wednesday. Slept mostly ok. Even got back to sleep after waking up at 4:45. The other week Tony gave me a container of basil which is growing like weeds in his yard. But of course I'm a complete slacker and didn't do anything with it. Well it was getting desperate so before I work I made some pesto. But first had to contend with a microscopic reanimated spider that's been in hibernation for a couple of weeks..
The pesto turned out quite well. Even if I did end up having to throw out half the basil. Sigh.
Ok day I guess. Managed to find some jeans at kmart. The only two in my size in the whole store. As with Target, everything is "skinny". Well some of us *aren't* skinny. Hate. So either *everyone else* wants skinny and that's why they stock so many. Or *noone* wants skinny which is why that's all there is and hardly anything else. Also why TF can't women's clothing standardise on sizes?? Last time I bought jeans they were size 8. This time - 10. I've had everything from 8 to 12 over the years cause they keep changing. I really should try on some boys jeans some time.. Or go to a workwear place..
Westfield didn't get the memo about the 12 days of Christmas..
Late home, leftover pork (fried in lamb jelly (cause needed to clear freezer space)) and salad for dinner. Backed up my computer and then it was time to wash my hair and go to bed. Sigh.
Thursday. Tidying up and bits and pieces at work. Showed the newbies some stuffs on one of our firewalls. Drinks at Lighty then Death in Paradise 8.1.
He's not missing a leg, but he did just leave that poop there
Friday. Awake for like two hours in the middle of the night. Sigh. Climbed Mt Rogers.
Mt Rogers has *pink* epic dandelions!
Then mostly just housework and getting organised, including bringing up the Lego from downstairs where it had been hiding for a few months due to the Silly Season. Used the pesto I made yesterday with some chicken I dug out of the freezer, some broccoli and some "fake" pasta (kognac pasta) for a yummy dinner. Stu went back for thirds, even though he doesn't really like broccoli, so must have been good haha.
Then The Orville 2.11. I had the kind of day that I would like every day for the rest of my life. kthxbai.
Saturday. Slept ok until hurty kept me awake from like 3:45 to 5:45. Sigh. After not great sleep the night before either it was definitely zombie day. Sigh.
Dude, aren't you a bit far north of the border?
Did a bit of Turkey photo culling but not nearly enough. Tried to sort out some Lego but my brain was too fuzzy and I'm sure I've stuffed something up.
The baby capsicums are getting bigger. That snail is just a shell. Maybe a bluey got it..
Leftovers of the "pulled lamb" (which was still epic spectacular) and cauliflower with cheese sauce for dinner.
Mash and Sex Education 4.3. Really had to feel for Jean (portrayed as my age even though Gillian Anderson is a fair few years older) and her exhaustion.. omfg there's no way I could have kids.. the sleep deprivation would kill me!!
I rescued those things on the right today too - their stem had broken off, possibly due to lack of water, so grabbed them and brought them inside
Sunday. Slept fairly well hurray!! Except I don't really know what I did all day. I know I renamed all of Mum and Dad's Tasmania photos to get them into chronological order. I also wrote out their itinerary for their 1971 trip. They only had two weeks and managed to cram heaps in (including getting perfect days for Mt Amos and Cradle Mountain - totes jelly) and it was cool seeing the order of the photos plotted against the map. Other than that I'm not even sure. I didn't managed to do any photo culling. Barely any dots. Hardly any Lego inventorying. There was a walk up Mt Rogers thoguh. And food shopping. And getting epic enraged by the pantry which descends into chaos the moment your back is turned. Sigh.
Look at this trash. This is what happens when you go low carb. Everything's damnedwell GREEN haha
Now I just need a quote...
