    saw a cutie at the beach today

    It’s Autumn and mushie time , I saw a mouse nibbling a mushie and then dash under cover , the mushie was covered in nibbles

    I also found a watch , a very waterlogged cheapie, and a few nice deep purple scallop shells

    Fingers crossed.

      Let me know if they’re as dodgy as they’re painted out to be. I avoid surrendering cats to shelters after seeing they were being investigated

        Sent a sick stray to the vet who then sent kitty to them. They were still taking care of her a few weeks after when I called to check.

    I saw this recipe on Insta for baking hot cross buns in something like a custard sauce, with milk / cream / butter / sugar / eggs and a few other things. I’m not sure if this is some Easter tradition I missed out on growing up but knew I had to make it. This is now my lunch.

      That’s a twist on bread and butter pudding

      Ooh looks good!

    • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Yes it’s tradition. It’s like bread and butter pudding using leftover/stale hot cross buns.

      Yours looks amazing!

    I had the bright idea of using an antifungal pump spray on the cat’s legs as a quicker application (because he doesn’t stay still and pulls his legs away). It just scared him.

    I’m feeling so stressed and trapped about the whole situation. The loss of Melbcat has severely destabilised me, I don’t know how to solve this, and my own treated lesion seems to be coming back. Ignoring the cat and not helping him is not an option. I’m just going in circles here.

    I’ve contacted the rescuer again. Asking if I can get some oral medication for him. Explaining my difficulties with topical. And about being unable to get help from the vet or find his owners. Asking if I would be able to treat him in the community or if I should surrender him to her organisation :(

    I’m going to go put a found poster outside where I was told these alleged owners live, but it’s highly possible they could have moved or just don’t give a damn 🫩

      Just do things the easy way. 👍

      source
      • melbaboutown@aussie.zone ⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        The easy way is to do nothing (no) or surrender him to the kill shelter (no). Doing nothing means I stay on the ringworm hamster wheel.

        There’s no easy answer so I’m asking if I can get some oral treatment for him or if I should surrender him to this rescue which will skip the pound and take him to foster.

    Almost all done w/ the downpipes.

    Last steps is to flush it then put bicarb and cleaning vinegar down, wait over night then flush with hot water (going up ladders w/ hot water will probably win me the darwin award).

    It rained a bit last night and the downpipe outside my bedroom was flowing very nicely so seemingly this whole wasn’t a waste of time.

    • CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone ⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Washing soda is better than bi carb and vinegar.

      source
      • Bottom_racer@aussie.zone ⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Hrmm seems so!..

        might have to double down and do both.

        One of the downpipes is a bastard so I’ll put the washing soda in that first.

        Thanks for the tip :)

      Bicarb and binegar is better for a kitchen sink as you agitate the shit off the sides. You’ve already done that with the blaster.

    Why do I offer to host knowing it’ll throw me into an anxious mess? Thankfully it’s only coffee for Boyo’s sister and her partner, but I’m still like urg

      I freaked out a bit throwing the partay. Last time I did a little gathering like that was about 20 yrs ago, and we were all high after clubbing so it was easy lol.

      How people manage the stress of hosting big ones is very much beyond me.

    My fruit & veg box has arrived for the month. I have lots of cauliflower (destined for soup) and a huge amount of grapes. The lettuce however was extremely tiny, which is probably a good thing as I still have more than expected left from last month - the change to cooler weather has slowed down my salad intake somewhat.

    Checking the Bissels. One is $299 at the moment and another with steam is $479… both deals ending April 8. The Kmart generic is $119 which is more my budget but I wonder about the vacuum quality and therefore drying.

    Cleaning

    Hate having carpet. Whose idea was this? Considering just spraying it down with diluted benzalkonium chloride from one of those big sprayers or using a cheap handheld steamer bought off eBay. But it is kinda grubby and I’m a bit worried about leaving the toxic to cats carpet foam spray I used on 😕

    TW grief/mental health

    Grief is combining with everything else going on and has pushed me into an actual mental health crisis. I’m getting help and all but my god this sucks. I just wish it would end. Starting Endep at a very low dose to try and dull this abdominal pain because it’s worsened under stress and so severe I can barely eat.

    If you’ve seen the Kodak Charmeras I just got some aliexpress knockoff versions. I’ll find wherever sells the cheapest micro SD cards and that will give me something to do tomorrow. Do they still sell 4gb SD cards?

        That’s overkill for shitty little cameras that take 0.3mp photos. They’d probably crash loading all that space anyway
