I've got the doors open and any little sound the dog goes burko. I tell him to go back to bed but instead he runs and sits outside of my daughter's bedroom so he can protect her. Big bad Brutus.

Still 30 degrees outside but I feel comfortable. Dry weather is just so much more bearable.

I ran for the train at Spencer Street, as there are delays and weirdly I'd catch it earlier than usual due to timings... Only for it to go to Flinders and then back to Spencer and then onwards.

Anyone know why trains aren't doing the loop? I mean I don't mind because the loop adds time to my trip anyway, just curious if there "police activity" in the loop or something lol

I used to have to travel to Footscray for uni all my connecting trains ran straight from flinders to spencer and vice versa.

On public holidays I was always forced to use a train to take the loop and also weekends as well.

I think also what happens is that some trains that go north bound will be forced into the loop.

That’s all I know from my experience.

Moths are flying around my pantry and wardrobe... They didn't come from outside and I haven't really bought any clothes so maybe it was a rogue box of crackers? I've set out both types of traps and moved the dry goods to the fridge to protect them/kill any eggs but may just do a big chuck out. Then wipe the pantry shelves. Then vacuum.

Also perhaps heat the woolen coats in the dryer and put them in clothing bags.

I'm tired already and don't want to :( This is not going to be done in one day. It's probably going to be one shelf at a time. Then vacuum after that if I'm lucky
