Sunday. 1st February. How'd it get to be February already? Had an epic roast pork for dinner. The crackling turned out really well and the meat was pretty good too. Then MacGyver.
Monday. Went to bed fairly early. Didn't get to sleep for hours (restless legs). Woke up for a bit around 4 because of the epic wind. Then woke up again at 5 because that's what I do. Busy day doing tickets and crap. Stu made a tuna mornay for dinner (onion fried in butter, steamed asparagus (I would have skipped the steaming part as it would have cooked later), tinned tuna, cream, mustard powder and cheese, finished in the oven for 20 minutes).. it was delicious! MacGyver.
Tuesday. Took ages to get to sleep again and then restless. Busy day doing tickets and crap. Stu made cabbage with soft boiled eggs which was nice enough. MacGyver.
Wednesday. Slept relatively well. In fact I "slept in" which was a bit annoying because I had to leave early to take the car in for service, and waking up a bit earlier would have given me a bit extra time. Gerald Slaven have changed their drop off procedure. You used to be able to just park in the car park and drop the key in at the office. Now you have to queue up in the parking lot. One at a time you go into the garage and they sort you out and take your key, then you can go and then they park the car before taking the next car. Seems pretty inefficient. hrmmm. Busy day doing tickets and crap. And cleaning up messes cause I can't help myself. Leftover pork and salad for dinner.
Thursday. Busy day doing tickets and crap. Went to Bar 59 for drinks as Neil was off getting his knees manipulated.
I thought the lens flare on this photo of a cockatoo outside the Labor Club was pretty cool..
Pizzas for dinner then watched Hook, which I haven't seen in probably 25-30 years.
Repeat of last week's pepperoni, olive and capers, and mushroom pizzas
OMFG there was a mouse in the house!!!!! First time we've seen a mouse in here since when we first moved in. Even during the mouse plague of a few years ago we didn't see any. Don't know what's changed. Maybe they were desperate to find water after all the weeks of no substantial rain.
Friday. Meh sleep.
My work desktop wouldn't render on my left screen after my last reboot. hrmmmm.
Busy day doing tickets and crap.
This was funny.. Yup, we had chokos! Was never really a fan. We also had corned beef and white sauce (I didn't like it - I thought it was too salty); ham steaks (not actually spam) but floured and fried which I actually liked; devon - not really a fan, even now I'm not a big ham eater; steak and kidney, yeup Mum used to do that, really didn't like it; rissoles, well how could you not! Fun stuff.
Saturday. Spent much of the morning sorting Lego. Mid afternoon we headed over to Mishi's for a games afternoon/evening. Best I can tell, this is the first time since 2016 we'd been over!!!!! I knew we hadn't been since pre-covid but what the hell?!? Chatted for a while in the lounge room, then chatted for a while around the table, then played a game of Ticket to Ride (Asia expansion), which was a bit confusing to begin with but we eventually got the hang of it. I came second or third (out of five).
There was Turkish delivery for dinner then we played a game of regular Fluxx then a game of Pirate Fluxx. The first game was one of the most complicated games of Fluxx I've ever played, with some rules that made for a lot of confusion (eg inflation).
Sunday.
It rained overnight!!!!
Out of sorts all day (maybe feeling like I lost a quarter of my weekend, and just generally feeling overwhelmed). Food shopping after lunch. Stu is cooking some chicken and mushrooms for dinner..
