    So much love to my aunty who realised I was not ok, called me and spoke to me for over an hour so I’d feel less alone and anxious 💜💚💙🧡💛 good night

      I’m sorry to hear about everything you’re going through. I hope with vcats help things can settle down with your asshole LL

        Thanks. I’ve had the worst sleep, fragmented and overheated and taking way too long to wind down…

        I have a feeling if anything gets to the point of vcat she’s going to be even more agitated/vindictive. I wish she didn’t pull this on a Friday, all the tenants rights and legal aid places are closed til Monday so this is kind of hanging over my head. There’s a lot I need to get done for uni this weekend and it sure is hard to concentrate

      Aunts are the best people. Hopefully you can have an ok weekend and get some brain space for uni and time for sun. It’s a shitty situation - vent here as much as you need

        Sigh, if I wasn’t flirting with the edges of depression before I’ve certainly been plunged into it now, hard to compartmentalise it and just switch modes, enjoy the sun etc.

    Reached out to a friend and so glad I did (and that she was available). We’ve roamed around, chatted at length and I got to stop and smell the roses 🌹 I’ve decided I won’t check my email tonight. I need to recharge

        I have built a castle, in practicing clipping and layering to make it look really detailed. I just got distracted landscaping and then had the idea to make a little tower on the island. The fiddly part was the bridge, which is multiple square buildings which I adjusted and layed together. I could fiddle with that for ages trying to get it all perfectly even

    My flowers, after my MIL chopped them and stuck them in a vase in her lounge. Didn’t even ask! I like my flowers outside (my window) where they’re alive and I can look at them.

    The bulbs came from my mothers garden, she had hundreds of flowering plants. Orchids, gladdies, roses, azaleas, you name it. I couldn’t take much with me and I have little left. They were planted in a corner of the garden my MIL “gave” me. It is crowded with plants and flowers, just how I like it, whilst her part of the garden is barren and dull.

    Being on the drill constantly for that long yesterday made me have a nightmare about… my cordless drill. I’m not usually emotional about… drills… but it stopped working and I was scared/sad :(

    Went out this morning and it still works so that was a stupid dream.

    Popping more posts in Aussie Frugal to keep it kicking.

    I think some traditional frugal advice doesn’t really apply anymore (some stuff is no longer cost effective or as feasible) but am trying to think of the stuff that would be useful to people having to adjust to a lower budget.

    Stuff like don’t bulk buy too much toothpaste or sunscreen at once or take old tubes as it becomes ineffective on expiry.

    Or using sorbolene as a cleanser or makeup remover but first making sure you’re not one of the people who has a sensitivity to it. (Patch test!)

    Of course not every tip works for everyone, it can be very individual so there may be some critical comments. I’ve definitely had those before 😑

    I’m looking at privacy film for at least one window. I’ve measured it and even just with crappy eBay film it’s at least $30.

    Kind of resent spending money on a place I don’t want to be in… especially since shitty conditions are the reason.

    Having a bad day.

    Hurt my back a bit. Also It always sucks when you vent to someone (who you’re meant to) but they kind of say the wrong things/argue with you and make it worse.

    The state of my house is bothering me. I’m pulling air through the place due to needing to use a scented carpet cleaner. The one I ordered isn’t here yet and certain spots need another scrub.

    One thing I’m becoming a Luddite about is writing things down more. There are some songs on guitar I can play if I play along to the tab, but I just haven’t been able to memorise.

    I’ve written down the passages with the first chord as reference and I can play by myself a lot better now.

    I used to have a folder with print offs of songs. I stopped doing that when I moved to Melbourne because I didn’t have the space or a printer.

    By writing things down I can summarise passages of songs, then do the same thing for the structure, then I could just use the song name as a prompt and play the whole thing. I should have done this years ago

    It’s sunny outside

    But I’m not allowed to play…

    My own fault for signing up to a conference and thinking I had tons of time to get the work done and prep a talk. Time has bitten me on the bum again. Please shoo me away if I try to sneak back in here this arvo.
