I went with picking up the biggest bits, then using a couple of containers from the recycling to scoop the worst of it. Then a few layers of paper towel and a gentle action on the worst bit, swept around the least jammy bits, and mopped. I’ll go back and vaccuum presently.
I don’t recommend giving it a go.

May the whole DT find a really nice empty jam jar today. For this jar was unopened and full of quite nice strawberry jam.
I’ll have to do a second round of cleaning later, just in case. I’m not convinced I’ve got it all.

A suicidal jam jar leapt out of the pantry to its doom on the tiles. Red sticky jammy glass everywhere. Great fun to clean up.

Apparently I had a deprived childhood. I have never made or worn an Easter bonnet or hat. I thought it was an odd new thing, but friends of the same vintage and similar geography tell me this had been happening for many decades, I’ve just somehow completely missed it. Huh.

The Darebin Rd one? That’s annoying if they close it, I like it much better than the new Preston one which is a big pain to get in and out of, even though it’s closer to me.

I paid attention this morning and realised I do right first, not left. Sorry DT, I lied too.

I went even though I really wasn’t feeling it this morning. Now I can sit back with a pot of tea and feel virtuous all morning.

Usually left I think. I’m right-handed.
If they’re shoes with laces, I have an annoying-to-me habit of tying the first in a double knot, then the second one in just a bow. I don’t mean to. It’s annoying when I’m untying them.

I pop an audio book on low volume with a timer. Usually something I’ve read before. It’s enough to distract my brain but not too stimulating and no light. I usually drop off fairly quickly.

I’ve just done psychometric testing for the first time, for a potential job. This seems like a really dumb way to select candidates.

Maybe the real dummy is the one storing plasticine biscuits in the lunchroom though? Just why??

I reckon you need the day off.

Less than two weeks of daylight saving left. I’m going to take some evening walks while I can.

It’s cooled down enough to go back to the blanket I’ve been slowly crocheting. 8ply wool is not ideal for summer.

I had a glorious time today wandering around Clunes at the Booktown festival and buying second hand books.
It’s continuing tomorrow if you fancy getting out of Melbourne.

Just as I was driving through. Bell St was decidedly floody round the edges.

Smash the pot with the hammer I reckon. That should be cathartic.

I reckon an overlocker could get nasty in a fight. I’m glad you didn’t get your face overlocked.

Thanks! I’m sorted, I’ve got 2x 60L and a fridge not too far away if needed for overflow.
