      Agree. I’ve just taken some panadol to ease my headache so hopefully I can get some sleep.

    I bought a years’ worth of my favourite notebook in the post christmas sales and its time to crack open a new one. The big question is - black or red? What is the vibe I want for the next 2-3 months??

      While my Melbourneness says black, red for Autumn seems appropriate.

      Red for Autumn?

      Paint it black.

        I’m leaning towards black. I found some sparkly dragon sticker that will look cool.

    I made a chicken casserole for the freezer and the chicken pieces shrunk a lot more than expected. So I ended up with less serves than I was expecting and a lot of excess gravy. I’ve frozen the gravy seperately, it should work well as a gravy to pour over a pan-fried piece of chicken, so I guess it wasn’t too disapointing.

    Usually a cheeky last minute Sunday grocery shop is chill with the odd screaming child. Timed it wrong today, as I think everyone was trying to get their “to-do” list done before the rain hit. As busy as it was, everyone was polite and courteous tho!

    Given the relative decline of letter writing and the relative increase in government funded bowel screening, the overall proportion of poo in our mailing system is probably at an all time high.

    This thought brought to you by an old fart… who thought they had a few more years but was told by the doctor it’s now available at 45 …me…the old fart is me.

    source
    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      farts won’t do, you need something with a bit more substance

      source
    • RustyRaven@aussie.zone ⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I think it’s available at 45 but they don’t send it unsolicited until 50? I just did my ‘welcome to 50!’ bowel screening, and the nice thing about having that out of the way is that I no longer have to go to the toilet thinking ‘poo! I should save that for science!’

    Been unable to sleep and have been washing all the laundry and blankets. Gathering Melbcat’s meds and belongings into her carrier to more easily clean but I’ll be leaving her litterboxes, beds and bowl where they are. I don’t want to look at the empty spaces.

    spoiler

    I’m hoping to get the black cat back to an owner or at least some clarity on next steps to take. I looked fruitlessly on Facebook (without an account) for black cats missing in my area, made a dedicated gmail to put on a paper collar, then made a quick Found poster with that on there. After that who knows.

    I guess I’m just numbing out and focusing on the things I can fix because I have no idea how to even process this. I miss my baby girl.

    source
    • imoldgreeeg@aussie.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Wise steps with the black cat and I understand leaving the beds etc in place. Take time. We had an old dog cremated, and he lived on the coffee table in his tin for over a year until we had a spot to bury him because I couldn’t stand the thought of him being alone in a cupboard. Big hugs

      source
    • RustyRaven@aussie.zone ⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      🫂

      You might feel like you don’t know how to process what has happened, but what you are doing is processing it. Busy work is a way to distract your conscious mind and give your subconscious the room to process - your conscious thoughts might grab all the attention, but it is the subconscious that does all the real heavy lifting.

      The grief of loss is extremely painful to go through, but Melbcat loved you and was loved in return. Death cannot take that away, and moving from present to past does not diminish it. The time you had together and the relationship you had will always be there, you are just viewing it from a different angle.

    There’s this witches market in Ferntree Gully today. I managed to get out of having to drive an hour to a market to buy rocks by checking the website and seeing they’re doing a similar thing closer to us in two weeks time

    Many years ago I started making porridge mix and putting it into individual serving containers so I could take it to work. Then I decided that microwaving porridge was too messy so only make it at home now. But I’ve continued putting it in individual containers, and it’s only just occured to me now that it would be much easier to make it in a big container and measure it as needed 🤦‍♀️

    So, once the three containers I have now are used up I’m changing to a big container instead, which will reduce my porridge hassle factor considerably.

    source
    • SaneMartigan@aussie.zone ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      There’s an old Scottish tradition of pouring a batch of porridge in a drawer then slicing off a piece as required, sometimes to be fried.

      source
      • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        I have not heard of this. I might try it one day. The draw is probably one of those tin lined draws in a bread makers cabinet

    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I do porridge everyday, I just make it in the breakfast bowl in the microwave, but I make very plain porridge, I have with brown sugar and a little milk

      it’s very easy

      maybe if I can get some citrus and make some marmalade I can have toast again

    Hey I’m sorry for the mental breakdown. I’m probably going to delete all of that soon.

    I am just really not doing well and not catching a break.

    source
    • SituationCake@aussie.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Don’t be sorry. You are going through a really tough time. It’s ok to let sadness happen. (And all the other emotions too, grief is complicated) It’s ok to eat a stack of chocolate or whatever suits your diet that will ease to pain. The only thing that heals grief is time. You did the absolute best for her. It was just her time, and you cared for her so well.

      source
    • SaneMartigan@aussie.zone ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      No one’s expecting you to do well. Looking in, everything about your current state of mind seems normal. You’ve been hit with a bunch of major negative life impacts and are experiencing the trauma of that.

    I’m glad I got my mulching done when I did, working outside in this humidity is pretty icky. I’m trying to chip away at the rest of the work a little bit at a time but it’s definitely not the weather for sustained effort.

    I had an event in St Kilda tonight, on Fitzroy St, and won’t be heading back there anytime soon. Been a long time since I’ve been in that area. It’s soul-less, don’t see the appeal other than it’s a street near a mid beach.

    source
    • SaneMartigan@aussie.zone ⁨16⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      It’s nicer during the day but it’s always been sketchy, at least since the 80s. I’ve never known Fitzroy St to not be mostly a shithole and have only gone there for Prince Bandroom shows. These days the Espy is just another rip off pub. Getting some take away and a six pack from Ackland St to share on the beach around dusk would be my premium St Kilda experience.

    The final thing stopping me from wiping an old laptop and tinkering with it was the majora’s mask recomp save files. I’ve found those and moved them to a thumb drive to maybe transfer to another device.

    The battery is shot on this thing so can’t do much with it. Maybe I’ll finally try arch or put on one of the BSDs to look at
