Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 days ago

Oh noes … Came home a bit early so I could regroup and finish off the years tasks quietly. 20 min nap on couch became 2 hour DEEEP sleep with random nightmares and now my neck is cricked and I am discombobulated.
Yep. That was 2024 in a nutshell
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 days ago
add in being disabled by sciatica for months and that’s my year too
( but been an amazing year for personal emotional growth and I’m so lucky to have mr seagooon 🥹 )
SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 days ago
I think you just summed up my 2024 also.

I know this is an unusual thing to say, but you have beautiful floors
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Thanks. That’s just wood tiles I put down on the concrete, they take a fair amount of work to up keep but are worth it. They keep the terrace a cool comfortable place rather than a brick and stone hot box

It appears I have a cold on my last day here. 😔 The good news is my fam will look after me real well. 🙂
SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 days ago
The kiwis have given you a parting gift of germs? How rude of them. Hopefullly the plane trip back isn’t too uncomfortable!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 days ago
😂
It’s very early days so not so bad yet.

I love hydrangeas ❤️ I have a few, but none the size of dinner plates like yours!
SituationCake@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Stunning! I know from experience these are not easy to grow! Tried various locations but was always too sunny or too shady. And I was never great at keeping them as well watered as they need. I’ll just admire other people’s skills!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 days ago
morning sun, afternoon shade
and lots of high mineral fertilizer, don’t cut back in autumn, cut in early spring when they have buds
I used to grow them 🙂
just_kitten@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Oh that’s so luxe. Nice job with the pH (?) variation too.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 days ago
So. This morning we find out that the awesome manager will no longer be leading our team.
As I mentioned a bit earlier today, she’s the main reason I’ve stuck it out.
Let’s see where the new year will lead. Probably out of this place.
TinyBreak@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Where are they going? And have they decided who will lead your team?
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Stepping back to mainly do director work and the new leader is some lacky from the larger org.
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Have you ever seen a more majestic breakfast? 240g steak, 1 avocado, one smallish zucchini, 200g mushroom, two runny yolk eggs. Butter, salt, pepper. I won’t eat until tomorrow!
spoiler
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 4 days ago
It’s glorious. Just out of curiosity; if you were to go out to a steak house for dinner, would you cut the entire steak into strips before eating?
Force_majeure123@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Only reason I do it is to avoid using a plate.after it’s rested I cut it on the chopping board and dump it back into the pan
bacon@aussie.zone 4 days ago
We approve.

That looks amaaazing! Hope it was just as tasty as it looked!

mysticgreg@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Well I guess we DO have a history of claiming New Zealanders as our own, so it’s only fair =)
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Bullshit. Give me an example? 😂
Macca’s have a kiwi burger out. Something about beetroot and egg being kiwis best combo since the 80s something something. It was implied the kiwis thought up this brilliant combo. I don’t even like beetroot and I saw red. 🤬
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 days ago
The young Seagoons tell me everything is so expensive in NZ and many things are just unavailable.
anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 4 days ago
A friend of ours has a NZish missus so they went to live there for a while. He said it was so expensive that their main form of entertainment was going for a walk
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 days ago
The touristy places and attractions are.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Ohhh I just thought of something I meant to ask you to keep an eye out!! Have you seen a Lasagne Topper’s anywhere?! They’re this batshit little fried slab of beef and cheese and I didn’t learn about them until after my last trip there!
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 days ago
No I haven’t but that does appeal to me.
imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone 4 days ago
This is it. One more day between me and holiday (except for whatever little bits I will inevitably need to finish off in the morning.
Yyyeeeeaaaah…
Pilk@aussie.zone 4 days ago
IT outage at the hospital, waited 2+ hungry and uncaffeinated hours for my scopes to be cancelled. 💀 I’m declaring today Taco Overload Tuesday to celebrate.

Turns out I took 1 more week of leave than I thought. 3 weeks here we come!

I regret getting in contact with my Aunty to settle things.
She tells people that I’m the nice one I’m the family but I just choose not to get into conflicts.
She texts me this.
“I haven’t got any replies to my emails. You better tell your cousins to hurry up to have settlement by blah blah date”
Dunno if I’m reading into too much but it does t sound very nice and feels like she’s pressuring me to rush them.
Eagle@aussie.zone 4 days ago
I just had to rescue a frog. In my bedroom. 3 very interested cats, and one squeaky little frog who is now outside. Who needs sleep?
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 4 days ago
I’m progressing to the next stage with this job. I don’t know if it’s what I want to do but if I got an offer I feel like I shouldn’t knock it back. I just don’t want to end up in a similar situation where I’m out in a year’s time because it didn’t work out
Aradina@lemmy.ml 4 days ago
Fell asleep splayed out on the bed no blankets and in the middle of the night woke up shivering cold. Good times.
just_kitten@aussie.zone 4 days ago
Who’s an idiot who thought it’d be overcast and left their bedroom blinds partly open and window wide open. No prizes for guessing.
I am being taught over and over again THOU SHALT ALWAYS LEAVE THE BLINDS DOWN AND WINDOWS CLOSED before leaving for work. No exemptions. Boiling.
Met up with some old colleagues which was nice - kind of really tied a neat bow on that chapter, one year on - now to catch up on 2.5 hrs of work and call it a day.
underwatermagpies@aussie.zone 4 days ago
The cat is mad at me because there’s cream in the fridge and it’s not all in his belly (just some). He’s given up yelling at the fridge and is now glaring at me, and occasionally mixing it up with looking very sad and lean.
dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 days ago
Dinner out, first time in ages. Little Mexico in Berwick. Nice enough, kinda lacking in spice levels but that’s probably more on me.
Duenan@aussie.zone 4 days ago
So today i mostly worked like a dog. My boss admitted to faffing a little too much today and didn’t as much done as she should have.
Hopefully this earns me a couple of early work finishes though tomorrow I have a work function at the end, I really hate that keeping us at work later to do these functions.

What sort of buffoon tries to sell a house with neither stove nor oven? Wonder what other surprises lurk in this one?

Moving ramblings
To be honest I can’t be bothered and don’t have the energy to pack. Emotional energy mainly. I’ve got so much to do, and my childish mind just keeps reverting to “TO HARD. HIDE UNDER PILLOW TIL IT GOES AWAY”, which I’ll admit is beneficial in the short term, but I am moving TO.MOR.ROW and have only taken over 2 boxes and a bag of loose stuff I don’t have to return the keys until Friday, but I don’t have a way to get back on Thursday or Friday besides the bus, so catching 3 buses or a bus and 2 trains just isn’t practical with boxes and bags. I’m pretty sure only a small removalist van was booked (I didn’t organise it), so while they probably can take a couple of boxes, the rest of my stuff will just have to make do with a few car trips Considering I’m going to be moving again sometime between late next year and the end of 2026, it’s looking kind of tempting to donate half my shit to the salvos and live like a nomad by necessity. But having done that, I do know that it’s a depressing way of living, and you just amass new shit to fill the space anyway
