Thursday. Boxing Day. Took a while to get to sleep but then slept mostly ok. Weeding first up then planned out my todo list for the break. Alternated between house stuff, Lego stuff, dotz and blog reading. Pizza for dinner (from Dominos - eep!) then Death in Paradise 11.1.
Sole survivor mini capsicum
I did the Plonk beer advent calendar again this year which was a lot of fun.
Friday. Slept mostly ok, except for the storm around 04:00. It wasn't very big and it was very quick to pass over, but I did still get up and disconnect the computer. Alternated between house stuff, Lego stuff, dotz and blog reading. Leftover Christmas Eve feast for dinner. Then watched a documentary on AlphaGo - the first computer program to be able to beat top level human players.
Saturday. Slept mostly ok. Weeding before it got hot. Then got a random Blue Screen of Death which was a bit upsetting.
Alternating All The Things, although didn't get very far through it before we headed out for a big pantry shop. Brunch/shopping/lunch and three hours of my day just GONE. Sigh. Luv-a-duck Peking duck for dinner.
Death in Paradise 11.2 then back into Amazing Race celebrity edition (v2).
Sunday. Slept mostly ok. Hit 15000 in Candy Crush (nearly 3000 levels this year, 5000 in the past 18 months). I really want to stop because the ad experience is just so trash, but what else am I going to do when I wake up at 5:30am?? Probably should delete photos off my phone. I have like 60000 photos and the thing is nearly full.
Maccas at Emu Bank was super quiet in the morning and there were no kids in store. Parking was easy everywhere around Belco. Shops were (generally) uncrowded. I guess everyone must be down the coast. All The Things. Leftover Christmas feast for dinner. Death in Paradise 11.3.
Monday. Slept ok, but awake 5:30. Feeling the same Monday morning stress I feel every week. Yes I didn't have to go to "work" but my todo list is a full time job and my break is too damned short to get it all done. As of 9:15 I'd been at it two hours and hadn't had any "fun" yet. Sigh. All The Things. I swear my todo list is only getting longer not shorter. I've barely had any time for "fun" this break. Having to file all the Lego and do my blog year in review certainly didn't help. Lost another congo tetra. Resealed the shower. Over the past couple of months mould had been growing *behind* the sealant. We're guessing water is seeping down from the grout further up. So pulled all that off, exit-moulded it, cleaned/dried it, and resealed a lot further up the wall. Even managed to use the existing tube of sealant. Did I mention I've barely had any time for fun this break? Leftover Christmas feast for dinner. Death in Paradise 11.3, then the finale of The Amazing Race (celebrity edition v2).
Tuesday. New Years Eve. Took ages to get to sleep - restless legs. Then awake early.
Can you see?
A full on RAT was under the daisies when I went on my daily easter egg hunt to gather lemons.
Morning was mostly housework. And Oh The Humidity. And then all the blogging. Have I mentioned I've barely had time for fun this break? I did finish filing the Bricklink order though. We lost another line on the ExtendaLine this morning. This time it jammed into position part way out. But it won't let me extend all the way, so can only go half way now. Won't go in *or* out. Doesn't bode well for having to wash sheets. Why is everything so crap these days? #grunt.
