I have worked in food production for about 10 years.
When it comes to produce, the best stuff gets shipped to China for a fucking premium.
Then other places.
We get fifth best a lot of the time.
Apples especially. I had some top grade apples, Galas, that were going to Japan.
It’s a different fruit.

Growing up in Canada (and working in produce at a grocery store) we would get galas from NZ for half the year.
I’ve had NZ Galas here and the quality is crap compared to back home.
We get shafted with fresh produce here so badly. The good shit gets exported.

I’m usually not that keen to be honest, but we’re down a couple of people (illnesses) and I have my annual review coming up 😁.
Boss appreciates the effort.
Enjoy your week off. Better than what I’m doing.

Was up early to take daughter to work, started work early and smashed out like 2 days worth of work already.
Sometimes I impress myself.

City days with the family were (and still are) some of my favourite memories.
Kids love it. Buy them some snacks and a cheap toy and they’ll be in heaven.

Strained some ligaments training last night. Totally self inflicted.
Curing my ailments with wine and THC (after a nice pasta dinner).
I should get injured more often 😁

Our brains do some weird shit when left alone. Are you going to be making hamburgers and/or sausages for dinner this week now?

Hope your illness is on it’s way out.

Had some cool and vivid dreams last night. Can’t remember a damn thing, but woke up feeling good and rested.

Either that or the black organ market… might as well make a few bob

My kids are my life. That’s the long and short of it.
I will say all that was (thankfully) in jest.
We know the dude, and the breakup was pretty mutual.
But if he got fresh or uncouth, my girl knows that I’ve got her back and his fucking spleen in an eski.

Daughter and her beau broke up. We’re ‘dating’ for a bit, made it official…and like a week later it’s over.
Daughter is a bit sad but not too bad.
I’ve already offered to pay the lad a visit for a ‘friendly and constructive exchange of productive ideas’.
My son offered to drive there, to get his learner’s hours up, and to physically assist.
Daughter declined the offer.

It’s looked like dusk all day. I’m kind of digging it.

Hahaha…not quite
I supported violent retribution for someone who committed hideous crimes.
But I’m the bad guy in that.

Hope your recovery goes well too. And no more strangers in the house either.

I’ve copped a few bans for ‘inciting violence’.

I had a good 9 hours of sleep.
Took about 30 minutes to get moving this morning. Managed a nice walk in the sun, which kind of gave me energy.

My illness really wrecked me for the initial week. Second week just a lot of coughing and mucus. Pretty much passed it now, but still get a cough attack here and there.

Due to parenting stuff…went to bed late last night and had to get up early today.
All good. Had a productive day.
Was looking forward to a nap and managed 15 minutes. Nothing woke me up, that’s just how long I slept.
Korean food for dinner.
Had a few drinks and had a few puffs of the devil’s lettuce
Great fucking Saturday

In all honesty, Australian pork is pretty crap. The crackling looks good as though.

I’ve been feeling iffy since Monday. No chills or body aches, but like an oncoming cold/flu thing. So far only a bit of a cough and a bit of tiredness.
Got my flu shot 6 weeks ago as well, hoping it’s keeping the virus at bay.

Thin sock first, then thicker sock on top.
Tried and true method.

There was a Black Sabbath tribute band back in Toronto. They were awesome (wish i remembered their name). I think Ozzy watched them play a few times and had kind words.
