Sunday. 26th. Had all the leftover meat, gravy, apple sauce and peas from the club Christmas in July night last night. Yeah it was barely enough for the two of us. MacGyver and early night.
Monday. Awake from 2:43 for like an hour and a half. There were half a dozen big bangs at one point, and another big one a while later. This morning Tony found the shell casings for the fireworks. Bits and pieces day. Had some of the frozen meals we got off Ben and Sarah for dinner, MacGyver then photo stuff.
Tuesday.
All the frozen yoghurts I got off Ben and Sarah.
Day of way too much BS. Making me want to rage retire. Cooked Ben and Sarah's leg of lamb for dinner. If we'd been better organised we could have had it when they were over last week.
Happy birthday Dad. Missed you and your carving skills tonight...
MacGyver and some photo stuff. Feeling like it's all too hard.
Wednesday. Awake from 3:43 for ages. Nothing day, didn't achieve anything much. Bought some new undies and sox hurrah. Tried to get some photos of the moon. Clouds were being annoying. Stu cooked a pretty spectacular shepherd's pie for dinner (that took him like an hour and a half to make whoops).
Then MacGyver, read a few news feeds and it's 20:15. Sigh. Then post a moon photo and it's nearly 20:30. Epic sigh.
Thursday. Spent a bunch of time cleaning out some workgroup DBs. Good drinks, a bunch of other people came. Mills&Grills for dinner. This time we got Southern Chicken - tomato base, chicken, sweet corn, bacon & southern style sauce and mozzarella. That was quite nice. And potata.
Friday. Slept like crap. More workgroup DB cleaning. Kievs for dinner and Black Mirror.
Then continued the Arnie marathon with EB with Terminator 2. I still prefer it over the original. Couldn't find my DVD to start with - somehow it had gotten mixed up in the S section!
Saturday. Somewhat crap sleep. In the morning got some house stuff done and a few things ticked off the todo list. Then headed into town to go to Ted's. Except the big one is shut on Saturdays WTF???
So went to the little one but it didn't have the range of bags the big one does.
Then headed over to the National Botanical Gardens. We spent three hours there taking lots of photos birds, and had a late lunch there as well.
We both got Korean Fried Chicken Burgers ($22.90) - crispy chicken, kimchi slaw, gochujang mayonnaise, milk bun, fries.. which were quite nice and very filling.
Dropped into the chemist and the pet store(s) on the way home (it's getting harder and harder to get fluoro bulbs, another reason to downsize/get rid of the fish...). We were out for nearly five hours - most of the day - whoops. I didn't feel like eating any dinner. In the end I had a piece of cheese and a scoop of ice cream. We watched Conclave which was surprisingly interesting.
Sunday. Okish sleep. House/hobby/photo stuff and some food shopping. Stu got a rather yummy truffle toastie from Le Cheeserie ($21).
