  It really doesn’t come my way often. I recommend impending visitors with a tight deadline.

  I had a spot of cleaning mojo and vacuumed and mopped the floors. I now have nice clean floors but the kitchen’s too wet to go in and make a cuppa. Boo.

  There are so many great works, but the digital bin chickens outside NGV always make me smile.

  An expensive, gourmet coffee cake. I really hate coffee.

  I was given such a cake at work many years ago and felt obliged to eat a piece to be polite. They meant so well. It was so revolting.

  I had the strudel and I just chucked it in the oven. I didn’t bother glazing it with milk as the instructions tell you to, there’s no need. It just comes out a bit less shiny and glossy, but equally delicious.

  In the city this morning. It’s damp.

  And far too many people seem to think that their down puffer jackets are waterproof. Nope, you’re going to be cold and wet.

  I’ve just made peace with the fact that my fringe is permanent now. If I couldn’t deal with growing it out in lockdown, I’m stuck with it.

  Indeed, he’s a really happy man. And now it’s in my head too.

  Noooooo!

  I would try something like this, on sale at Myer for $50. Reputable hair care brand, salon motor.

  Thanks, I’ll check it out!

  For anyone living in the past like me- a reminder that MS Publisher goes away after tomorrow, export those files.

  I use it for two files that are updated once a year. I’ll have to finally move them to Canva I reckon, and mess around with all the formatting.

  Have you looked into ‘weekend migraines’? It can be the change in routine or change in stress levels that’s the trigger. There might be something you can identify and change.

  I made a delicious soup yesterday. I roasted a butternut pumpkin, two sweet potatoes, some garlic, and half a dozen carrots for half an hour at 200C - all chopped up with some oil, salt and ground cumin. Then in a big pot, soften a diced onion in some oil, add a litre of stock, and let it simmer for 5-10 minutes. Add the vegies to the pot and blitz with a blender until smooth. Add a bit of cream if you fancy.

  Makes about 12 serves at around $1.50 per serve, and freezes well if you don’t want to eat it for every meal. And you could swap out whatever roast vegies you fancy.

  I sleep with the blinds open and a good sleeping mask on. I get the good deep sleep from being in the dark, and the natural light as soon as I wake up. It works for me.

  I dreamt I was attacked by flying prawns. They bit me on the thigh.

  The covid vaccine comes with a free pass to sit on the couch for a while with no guilt. The cleaning can happen tomorrow. Or the next day.

  I only wash strawberries. There’s no logic involved, it’s just what happens. Haven’t died yet.

  They might do better with diamonds. They’re meant to like shiny things, it’s just convincing them to share nicely.

  It’s warmed up to a barmy 8C here, beating the forecast high of 7C. Luckily I have a roaring fire and I am toasty.

  I resigned from a job yonks ago and the whole senior leadership team of the not-particularly-big org gave me the silent treatment for my whole notice period. I was pretty junior and they’d been treating me like shit, it can’t have been surprising that I was leaving. Such strange people. It was very primary school.

  Good luck with the meeting! And with the job hunting!
