Yesterday my boyfriend and I spent the day together and he cooked for me. Wouldn’t let me help. What did I do to deserve this man?

he cooked for me
In the biz this is what we call a green flag.

Thinking about how to get these ringworm tablets down the black cat when and if I can get them. If I can’t sneak them down in food it may not be safe to forcibly pill him.
Thinking about whether that toxic carpet foam affected him and if the carpet washer will get it out. Whether he’ll use the shelter in winter, and as it gets colder if there’s an eskie with the right dimensions to become an insulated shelter-bed. If he doesn’t I may be forced to let him in again 😔

Lying in bed completely physically exhausted, struggling to stay hydrated and seeing memories of Melbcat come up on my phone. I really care about this cat, feel guilty, and haven’t lined anything up… but I’m truly not coping and feel slight relief that there might be a safe option for someone else to take him and ensure he’s cared for. If there’s a foster place and they would accept him. I’m feeling it out and sitting with the idea that I may not be able to keep him.

I killed my ringworm with a Thrush pill. Didn’t have a reinfection source around though.

I’d be putting liquid antifungal in the cat food
and painting any ringworm I had with daktarin tincture , the tincture is super strong and works very well

I think Good Friday is the worst of the christian public holidays. Everything is closed like Christmas but there’s nothing to do. And the thing all non practicing people do is not eat red meat. At least you get to give gifts to people on Christmas.
The best parts of easter are on the other days too, but Good Friday is meant to be the big one

it’s a nice quiet day

Personally I find it a bit of a sad intitement of our society that we equate shops/services being closed with ‘nothing to do’. Are we really that unable to entertain ourselves?
I’ve always thought public holidays are a great thing because it gives us time to do things together - get together for a bbq or a picnic, play board games, have a movie night, whatever you like. Don’t just feed the consumerist machine.

I even mean with events and hanging out with family. It feels like there is more emphasis on family lunch at Christmas even if there’s nothing else to do. Whereas there’s just nothing on good friday
Taleya@aussie.zone 3 hours ago
I like good friday for those exact reasons. It’s like the only public holiday left that’s actually a day off for the majority of workers.

Lets not forget why JC had to die. So you can feast on chocolate and hot cross buns all weekend.

Darwin award day… hot water up a ladder into downpipes.
Good thing I got an email this morning from Ambulance Vic… final notice to renew… good timing.
When I was about 7 or 8yo broke my leg at a park down here at a family thing, didn’t have coverage… and that was an expensive activity.

Shopping done.
Haircut next.
Then the usual suspects: cat, music, reading.
Tomorrow night, bar crawl lol

What are you reading?

I picked up a book called The Pearl by Steinbeck. I’ve read it before but I revisit it every few years.
It’s short, but probably the most powerful allegory on capitalism I’ve ever read.

Lovely looking day out there again today. I plan to mow the front yard (back was done yesterday), make some cauliflower soup, sort out meals for the next few days at work, and lift some heavy things.

Some family stole my fave table spot (fair enough can’t buy a view even with potato cakes)…
So potat cakes were had a few metres away.

They re-did the foreshore / playground / bbq area at point lonsdale a few years ago and it’s quite nice to see the place used so frequently now.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 20 minutes ago
It’s a beautiful place.
