Ooh just saw the oxalis post from yesterday lol.
I suppose we need an update.
Aerogard (40% deet) works very well. It’s been a few months and surprisingly it hasn’t bounced back so I think it does maybe hit the bulbs. Didn’t kill any other plants using it. Found it works best when it’s a still, sunny day.

Have to thank you for suggesting the neutral ensure a while back. I think there’d be bigger problems without it. Life saver really.
Mouth is one of the bigger problems. She’s been in to see a lot of specialists over the years for that. Unfortunately that ones tough.
been putting animal fats in but didn’t think of duck fat. Will try that!

become more withdrawn
Yep that’s my guess what would happen here.
And thank you kindly again for sharing your experience being in the field.
I was hoping she would be more receptive to some home based care so we’ll try w/ that again.

For him generally on rotation is steak w/ veg etc, pastas, curries, stir fries etc. Not that hard to do, nothing new there. Problem is dude refuses to cook which would really help out. Ol’ girl is pretty much strictly soup. trying to find variations when everything is so limited (no spices, everything pureed) takes time. By the end of it I just can’t be fucked. When I hear ‘what’s for dinner’ from ol’ boy I die a little inside. Totally robbed any joy from cooking.
Last 2 nights dins was genuinely excited for just a snag in bread lol.

Came down the beach on wed. for a break. P’s coming down today and I’m dreading it. Got a bit tense when I was leaving. Got into an argument w/ ol’ boy about ol’ girl, eating and how I need more help to keep weight stable. Basically turns into only me shopping, cooking (3 different things ugh) and turning the pressure up for her to eat more.
Got a call this morning from ol’ girl who was almost in tears. Took 3 days to go from 44.5kg to 41.5kg today. i’ve been able to keep it around 44-45 but the stress and strain on relationships to keep it there is becoming too much. When i leave it just plummets.
All I was asking was for ol’ boy to take more of an interest in calories otherwise we end up w/ exactly what happened here (again). He’s a useless cunt.
So I’m not quite sure what to do. It’s not as easy as saying get a dietician (has 2, they didn’t change anything I was trying to do), put her in for a bit of convalescence (that convo didn’t go well), or even get some in-house care (didn’t go down well either).
So now I have to try and swing it around (again). That means nagging her to eat more, only thing that’s ‘working’ atm, which is getting old.
The only thing that’ll help now is less refusal from ol’ girl, and more of an interest in keeping the diet chugging along from ol’ boy.
That has to come from them.

Gold FM these days just makes me feel old. Not because the music is old… because a lot isn’t… sometimes a banger comes on from my youth and I’m sitting there wondering if it’s the right station heh.

Loved the jellys when I went ages ago.
Felt a bit sad too when I saw the penguins. I know it’s a conservation thing as well as an attraction, both poor things really didn’t have much space.

Today we attack the remaining trellis and jasmine.
Still no word from the neighbour on the fuckn fence that blew over. The builders doing the renos next door propped it up from their side (without telling me what they’ve done) so I’ve propped it up from our side (again). It’s like a battle to see which way it’ll fall over next lol. I will be victorious.
In better news. Weeping cherry almost there:
Over the years it’s slightly earlier every year.
