Turns out I did find something to do. Now I’m slightly tired and ready for a beer. Cheers 🍺

I just picked up 10kg of slightly rain damaged apricots. This weekend’s activities are now set, there will be much preserving.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
yum, so jelly
apricot jam is the best, the industrial ones are too sweet and have no acid, home made is like real apricots 😊
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I absolutely agree. All jams are better home made, but apricot is probably the most different. I don’t generally make a lot of apricot jam because the fruit can be a bit expensive, but $25 for 10kg was a great deal. And they are really good looking fruit too, just some cosmetic marks on the skin.

It doesn’t feel like Friday. It’s maybe 1987 at best.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m still catching up.
Taleya@aussie.zone 4 weeks ago
Wooo officially spent the entirety of yesterday in bed

One benefit of getting my girlfriend the steam deck is I can just get her games for Christmas and her birthday. I know you don’t necessarily need a steam deck but it helps because I know what will run on there.
You can also access someone’s wishlist on Steam. It takes a little bit of tinkering with URLs but it’s doable. So during sales like the one on currently I can just scroll through and add things until I feel like I’ve spent enough
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
“Steam deck” sounds like something I might like to use to wash my windows with.
Steam Deck 2000. Steams and washes with one touch of button, leaving your windows sparkling clean.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
In a way it does wash windows from your life. It’s a gaming handheld and it has the benefit of keeping people entertained so you can have some time to yourself
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m bored.

They look like they’ve had a professional blow wave.

I’d kill for hair that awesome lol
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Are they growing on you?
CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Maybe. We can’t keep them cos my house smells like a barn.

Even though it’s dark, doggo looks happy!

He does look happy. 😊

Optometrist was a total waste of time. “There’s nothing wrong with your script. Try working slower” how about you try fucking all the way off.
Grumpy Catfish is grumpy.

Didn’t end up falling off the ladder yesterday so 2026 is off to a good start.
No one at the beach for last night’s swim which is a bit weird for NYD. As a kid in the late 90’s / early 00’s it was basically a party beach this time of year but all of that seems to have stopped even though there are far more people down here today.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Turns out computer games are less interesting to me than I thought while so tired, and too much playing worsens my headaches. Noooo
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Local Facebook drama today. The conflict between two competing Ballarat community groups has come to a head, with the admin of one group threatening to delete the group because people were not kind in the comments on their foulmouthed video tirade about FOGO bins.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Oooh get the popcorn. I love drama like this.
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Have spent the day on and off cleaning. I can believe those “flat surface” theories of home interiors, where every flat surface becomes a dump zone for clutter. That’s what happened to my place 😔 Even on top of the fridge and on top of the dishwasher, cluttered with bits and pieces and thick with dust. The fridge is next to the stove and the extractor fan isn’t really up to the task of taking all the oil out. I have scrubbed, polished and discarded stuff. Now having a cup of tea and a Shredded Wheatmeal biscuit (ok several) and wishing they were Chocolate Wheatons.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
On top of the oven :(
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
unless you don’t mind a bit of dusting everything goes in cupboards
PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
If only I had the cupboards 😭This place has a small wardrobe in each bedroom, a scant amount of kitchen cupboards and that’s it, and there’s no room for extra cupboards.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Day 4 of my Dr Seuss eyeshadow palette. Today is hot pink glitter. I like it. I like all the glitter and sparkle shadows. The only ones that I don’t like on me so far are the browns and dark grey.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Miss Seagoon got one of the her bestie’s little ones in Brussels a copy of The Hobbit in French and she would read as a bedtime story every night for a few weeks. But the dwarf names are the same. 🧝🧙♂️🐲🧌

The cat managed to do the most evil puke on Boyo’s shoes and our bedroom floor while we were out enjoying the evening. How dare we not be with him at all times.

oh there’s a special place in hell for bastards who upload hard to find albums as a single flac file.

Cat was screaming because the room got cleaned… treats have helped. Now she’s having a wash on the bed.
Inspection was meant to happen at 11 but they’re still not here

I’m starting to get a sore throat and I leave in a few days. Hopefully it’s nothing. Ahhhh
