    Poured myself a nice lil drink in my special wine glass (a present from my sister who died a few years ago)… popped it down and sat down to watch our team run out in the NRLW. Second half…and caught it with my hand and smashed it all over the floor.

    I know it’s just stuff but am currently devestated. Fuck you grief it’s been 10 years and now I am in tears because I’ll never get another gift from her. Or watch another footy game with her. Or anything.

    Fuck cancer.

      I’m sorry, that’s awful! I wonder if it is worth saving the glass and doing en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kintsugi

      • imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

        Too many pieces for kintsugi but thanks for your suggestion. It was a pretty blue glass with a wave pattern and I think I will keep a shard and try to make a little art with it. 💚

      oh no, always hard breaking something like that.

      I’d have to say the studspud’s idea seems like a good one.

    • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      That sucks. I’d look it at this way, atleast you used it and enjoyed and that’s better than in a cupboard where it didn’t get looked at. Still sucks though. Hugs 🫂

        Yeah I know. I am a firm believer in using things you love. Thanks 🫂

      It’s ok. I get what you’re going through and it’s really rough. We’re here to listen.

      The wine was the last physical gift you had from her - but your love for her is forever.

    Asked ExMrP what his choice of birthday cake is and he chose the Basque Cheesecake. Of course he did! So the plan for today is to go shop for supplies and ingredients, make the cheesecake, get the kids to wrap the gifts so that’s out of the way, take the kids to a park where elder can practice skating and I can do steps, and get shit together for the work/school week, in no particular order.

    After planning a lazy nothing day recovering from being sick I got a notification on my phone steam trains were running at our local station. So I got up and got ready so we could ride the train. I’ll need to keep an eye on thebusofdoomfsx to see if he makes a video on it

    Hello friends

    source
  • melbaboutown@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    I took a walk before and got further than usual. Thankfully not too many people were around. But wow it was muggy out there. Feeling a little unwell from the warmth and exertion.

    It’s raining now so the plants and I are grateful.

    I’m thinking perhaps I should just take a break from social minefields tonight and play some Minecraft. It gets a little depressing on singleplayer and I never follow through on plans for builds but perhaps I’ll do some mining with something in the background.

    My computer is getting full because I’ve stupidly been putting things on C instead of D drive. I can move the bigger things like pictures and games over to free up space, I’m just a bit worried as doing that in the past has created problems.

    source
    • SituationCake@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      Well done of the walk. Small wins are big wins.

      source
      • melbaboutown@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

        I wish I could do it more. Hopefully things will change for the better

    I’ve impulsively joined a discord with a couple of internet friends in it but I’m really wondering if that was the right decision.

    There is some cliqueyness that I worry about eventually being on the receiving end of (because historically I do struggle with cliques/groups) and already there’s one woman who’s had a go at me. Nobody else has, and they seem friendly but… I really need to think about this. Is this a good place or could it turn toxic. Do I have the discipline to leave?

    I hate that being laid up for health reasons and feeling uncomfortable with local meetups makes me so unhealthily online. I wish that there were other ways to communicate with online friends than social media, and that I had more freedom to touch grass.

    I would like to eventually return to martial arts for fitness or sign up to formal art classes but right now both of those goals aren’t something I can manage yet.

      Never trust a forecast warm day in spring. Usually code for shitty north winds. Caught me out again too.

        Fuck it, I need to rewatch it.

    Um ok. I thought I’d just play some Minecraft on my computer.

    spoiler

    Well it’s linked to my Microsoft account now which I knew, have to sign in again, okay I have the password… but now it’s forcing me to let it use Bluetooth and demanding I scan a QR code because it wants a passkey that I don’t even think I ever set up. I don’t think I even have a passkey. I may just quit playing the game if it wants to do all this. Everything is enshittifying to a hostile degree. In the past I tried to use emulators to play retro games from iso but it was often broken, lacking the ability to move or save game. Perhaps I’ll have to finally get my shit together on installing Linux and Wine, and then see what games I can find for Linux.
