Back home after sleep school. I wonât say finally a chance for a regular nightâs sleep, but lets try to keep up the good habits with the kids and there might be many good nightsâ sleep for us in the future

Been feeling low and grumpy today. Positive emotions completely dulled while negative emotions seem to get an extra boost. But at least I cut short the work day on both ends today and had some wins at work.
My favourite auntie got into a bad and easily avoidable car accident (total write off, front looked completely mangled) thanks to her stupid idiot overconfident narcisssistic husband, who honestly shouldâve been off the roads years ago. Theyâre in WA so no way of easily going there. Instead here I am simmering in anger at that man (nobody likes him. Except my aunt who is a martyr). Thank fuck there were no injuries, maybe minor whiplash for my aunt.
At least I guess it means theyâll get a new car with all the safety features but really the safest thing they can do is take the dickheadâs licence away. I hope heâll voluntarily do it after this massive wake up call⊠small chance given his outsized ego but heâs softened a bit over the years.

I have aquired fresh parsley and I donât know what to use it for!

Pretend itâs catnip and that youâre a cat
Catfish@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Gremolata! Keeps for yonks in a jar if you put an oil film on top.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I put it in mashed potato , I also use a whole bunch when I make minestrone
Duenan@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Not a bad suggestion with the mash potato. Now I need potatoes.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
You could buy some mince and chop it up, mix it with the mince and make hamburgers or you could fry the mince and throw in chopped up parsley and spices or you could make a pesto with some pine nuts. Pine nuts are cheaper at Aldi.
Duenan@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Iâm sort of a few days out from being able to shop again so I have try and make do with what I have at the moment.
I was going to make garlic butter bread/loaf slices and maybe thinking about using the pasley in that.
Was going to do fish burgers too but I donât know if pasley mixes well with that?
philip@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Fasolada or some other Greek stew is always my go to with parsley. Lots of good recipes here: mygreekdish.com/âŠ/traditional-greek-soup-recipes/
Seagoon_@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Parsley is also an excellent ingredient in dog biscuits. They love it. đđ đżđŠŽ

Anti-gratitude thread
The delayed phase sleep syndrome Iâm dealing with. Even when Iâve woken up early and gotten shit sleep, I canât seem to fall asleep early. Going to the pharmacy to get my hands on some schedule 3 meds.
underwatermagpies@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I wish toast stayed hotter for longer. Itâs so often cold. I am ungrateful for lukewarm toast.
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Iâm gonna make meatballs and I donât appreciate having to stick my hands in cold cold meat. It makes me feel icky.
neurospice@lemmy.dbzer0.com âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
How do you even get diagnosed with DSPD in this country? I always get Drs and psychiatrists telling me to go to sleep earlier and be very dismissive when I ask for sleep tests done. Normal sleeping pills donât work at all for me, the best tools I have are agomelatine, clonidine, and cannabis (all taken together if I need to force a sleep bc of society).
Anyways, Iâm not grateful for dismissive doctors who think I am trying to get pills off of them to abuse. Also fuck my sleeping disorder!
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I didnât get diagnosed with it, but I think I have a delayed phase thing going on. It might not be disorder level, because Iâm not sleeping at a mega ridiculous time, but my rhythm is just kinda in shock and I havenât been to sleep before midnight probably in about two years.
I think itâs more a bad habit per se. Although no matter what time I wake up one day, I will still not be able to fall asleep. Itâs strange.
DolphinLundgrin@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Iâve only tried melatonin (gives me poor quality sleep) and weed (give me poor quality bank balance) for my DSPD. Is there anything else you might recommend?
Baku@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I notice that I tend to have bad dreams more often when I take melatonin, but Iâm not sure whether thatâs an actual side effect or just a case of getting better quality sleep, and for longer. What dose did you take?
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I havenât tried any medications for it, but yesterday anotherspringchicken recommend restavit or phenergan
Catfish@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I am ungrateful for it being really hard to get replacement brushes for my robovac. Itâs cheaper to get a whole new unit of a different brand. Intentional Design obsolescence pisses me off!
Baku@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Ungrateful that my filling seems to get really painful when I eat/drink anything hot or cold. I think eating dinner is what brought on the pain yesterday. Had similar pain today after I drunk some cold water and let it over to the left side of my mouth
RustyRaven@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
That sounds like the nerve is irritated. Not fun, but at least it means your tooth is still alive and you donât need to go down the whole root canal route.

Gratitude thread âšïž
Grateful for female friendships! Not being upset like I was a year ago because my ex was too busy to talk to me. The sun. Dog attempting to wake me up twice, potentially because someone has either left the house or arrived.

@LowExperience2368 @Seagoon_ Female friendships are the best âșïž
(The only catch for me is I tend to be someone people come to with problems. So there's been days when my bestie has come to me with troubles, and then my other bestie, and then mum, and then wifey đ«.)
Anyways. Grateful thoughts.
One of the ways wifey and I split jobs is that I do the dishes at night and she, in theory, puts them away every morning.
In practice, most days I end up doing it.
Well...
A couple of days ago, I waited to see how long it would take for her to do it.
6pm â nope. 7pm. 8pm.
Are you going to put them away? "In a minute!"
9pm. 10pm.
Eventually it gets to midnight. Still not put away and she's fast asleep.
So I put them away. At midnight. I might have made a bit more noise than usual in the process.
She wakes up: "Why are you doing that now? It's midnight!"
Oh sorry, it got to midnight and the dishes still weren't put away from this morning, so I'm doing it...
Anyways.
I woke up this morning, and the dishes were all in the drawers.
Grateful âșïž

Grateful that the free food market this morning had bocconcini balls.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
Bocconcini takes me back to my childhood! Donât want to doxx your location, but where can I find a free food market?
underwatermagpies@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
I am grateful that I have choices in my life.
Also that Iâve just been sent the questions for an interview on Monday, so I can be well-prepared.

How to jump start a neighbourâs Ford Focus with the key-opened bonnet :
Step 1: Try to open the bonnet.
Step 2: With their friends, in total four of us, take turns repeating step 1 while watching YouTube.
Step 3: Celebrate too hard after finally spending almost 2 hours getting the damn bonnet open ⊠and helplessly watch as they accidentally smash the windshield with said bonnet.
Step 4: Connect batteries, start car, warn neighbour fuel is at 5%, pray that they have enough to gain enough charge to restart after refuelling.
Step 5: Bitch about the problem.

I have a neighbour whoâs a drummer. The marching band kind, not the death metal kind. I love hearing them practice. Theyâre a couple of houses away I think and itâs lovely and soft and rhythmic.

@Seagoon_ My boss (this is not the "manager") insists on having a team meeting every Friday afternoon.
She insists on having another one first thing Monday morning.
Are these meetings happening so we can talk about what we're working on?
Well, not really. That's what the Wednesday meeting is for.
No, I'm now 99% sure the whole point of the Friday meeting is so she can tell everyone how much fun she will have skiing or bushwalking this weekend.
And the Monday one? That's to force people to listen to how much fun she had skiing or bushwalking this weekend.
Baku@aussie.zone âš4â© âšmonthsâ© ago
My filling that I got on Monday started hurting at about 8pm yesterday. Itâs odd. I didnât have any pain on Tuesday, obviously didnât have any on Monday (half my face was numb), and on Wednesday I only had a little bit that was easily fixed with a Panadol. This one isnât so lucky. And it seems to have been timed nicely with feeling a bit blegh.
Hopefully I have a good sleep, and a good sleep fixes it

I know LJ is kind of a dinosaur of the internet these days, but thereâs still one or two I go back to read the updates⊠havenât been able to for the past week, always getting that âpage did not respondâ and itâs hitting me in the feels. Mostly because Iâve had a shitty day, itâs the first day of my period and Iâm just⊠wah. Being whiny.

I decided against meatballs instead made stuffed capsicums so I asked google how long to put into the airfryer and she replied with âI donât know. Hereâs a link I found on the webâ which I did not receive because it will go to the manâs phone instead.
Yesterday I asked her how to whistle she replied âSome people say to close your lips and blow but itâs hard to do without lipsâ.
My google has turned sassy.
