Today I saw a group of people painting in the room I sit in every Tuesday. I asked them about what they were doing, and they asked if I want to join them. So I spent an hour painting and chatting with some randoms instead of doing my work oops. Was fun!

Made it down the bellarine today for a break.
Just managed a single piccy of the SWAN comet before it dipped below the roof lol.
I will try harder tm night using the actual telemascope :(

Today at the beach I saw a seal. Apparently it’s very cranky and the council has fenced off it’s basking area.
He’s the light brown lump at the end of the breakwater.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 1 day ago
It looks like he’s sulking
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I love seeing seals and dolphins!!

It’s been a lovely sunny day today, and there are more sunny days expected too. I might even get a chance to test my air conditioner on Thursday.
I aim to plant all the plants I have in the garden over the next few days and hopefully make a start on planting some seeds. Then I can think about getting the soil for the lawn .

Ordered catering for another presentation I am doing tomorrow, the same one I did a few weeks back but at another location. Hope I get some clients out of this with the amount I’m spending on food! Went a cheaper option this time, sandwiches / focaccias with a side of cookies and brownies from a local cafe. Hopefully that pleases the crowd. I’m expecting double the amount of people compared to the first presso, slightly nervous but I’ve done all the hard work already, it’s just rinse and repeat.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Sounds great 😊
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 1 day ago
The work you’ve been putting in on these has been great. It will be good if you can find a balance between cheap catering and good food. If people aren’t happy then just say the location organised it
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 1 day ago
We used to use the Costco triangle sandwich platter for meetings for quick cheap easy option.

Good luck!

So when I was in Perth, I spent time with niece playing with my collection of insta-dry nail polish. Most of it got ruined (colours mixed together, etc), but I’m not upset! I knew what would happen and I wanted the quality time of “making potions” with her 😍 besides, it’s just cheap Sally Hansen shite anyway haha
The bonus is that I get to start a new collection of colours!!! 😍😍
The dark red is called Cinna-Snap and the pink is called Pink Blink. The top coat is Bejeweled, which just adds that beautiful glittery shimmer!
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 day ago
They look great - especially with the top coat!! That’s so sweet you were willing to sacrifice your paints for the sake of potions, did any turn into fun colours or all a write off?
StudChud@aussie.zone 1 day ago
All were a write-off 😂 mixed up with sand from her backyard so there’s a bunch of sand that smells like chemicals 😂😂
But we were all very witchy about it, her and I. I bought her a green nail polish while I was there that I left with them.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 1 day ago
You have such beautiful nails and great painting skill!
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago

I think I shall be retiring from the Fitbit ecosystem. My watch is three years old and randomly disconnects with the phone. It won’t tell the correct time anymore. Called up Fitbit and they said to update my phone, then try connecting the device again, which worked for a few hours. Going to call them again tomorrow.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 21 hours ago
I had the exact same issues and went to a basic Samsung band tracker.
Works perfectly.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 1 day ago
Damm it, I was just considering heading back to Fitbit.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I know some people with Fitbits that have no complaints! I liked mine when it was usable :)

Ode to Dinosaurs and Sour Feijoas
Hail to thee, yummy gummys! Chocolate thou never wert, That from lolly shop, or near it, Tasteth thy full sweetness In profuse strains of unpremeditated sugar.
Yummier still and yummier From the packet thou art glommed from Like a slightly stickiness ; The black currant ones are nicest, And sweetly still dost sometimes be sour, mr seagoon likes the green ones.
there is no milk or gluten

PSA. For any one who’s wondering why Zen Color is unavailable it’s because it’s been flagged by Google play store. This has only affected Android not Apple users. Don’t uninstall yet.
My husband bypassed whatever but when he gets home I’ll get him to do a virus check and look into it more. I could do a virus check now but if something pops up, I’ll panic and cry so I’m gonna wait.
Also you can have a look at r/ZenColor. Didn’t know there was a sub for this. Lol.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 1 day ago
I sussed that subreddit. Someone coloured almost 4000 pics.

It’s very addictive. I don’t open the app if I have stuff to do. 540 here and I’ve cut down on smokes. It’s my lifeline. Lol.

Brennan was good, as expected. He’s turned being a DM into a job alongside everything else he does.
But we also went to this burger place called Mad Patties and I got a vegetarian burger with a potato pattie. Essentially a hash brown in a bun, a great combination. One of those big, thick rostis you get from a hash stack at a cafe would make a great burger filling, I’m surprised I haven’t seen it sooner
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 1 day ago
As a patty I take this personally …lol
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 1 day ago
If Patty is short for something, I guess you’re adopting the long version of your name again.
People shorten my name all the time and it’s not even that long 😒

Looks like I’m raw dogging it with black coffee until the delivery guy comes with the milk

You know the saying…once you go black…you regret not having a back up milk.

Role has requested a police check. I told them what happened over the phone, and clarified further in an email.
Ball is in their court now.
