    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.

    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 ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ 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 😊

      source
      • RustyRaven@aussie.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ 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.

    Turns out computer games are less interesting to me than I thought while so tired, and too much playing worsens my headaches. Noooo

    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

      “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.

    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.

      Oooh get the popcorn. I love drama like this.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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. 🧝🧙‍♂️🐲🧌
