Melbourne

I taught the boys to wave at busses and they do it without fail now. I think it's time to take them for a ride on a bus

Sometime around Monday/Tuesday I passed a milestone of six months on my running streak. Every day since October 16, I've gone for a run. I've averaged about 6 hours a week running, or roughly 24 hours running every 4 weeks.

I wonder whether I'll make it to a year? It would mean not getting sick for a year. Seems unlikely.

$5 to anyone who can make it not Monday when I wake up tomorrow

Successful day in the garden. Grass mowed for first time in months, weeds pulled, plants pruned, leaves collected, green bin is full. Perfect day for it.

I feel very Melburnian today. Instead of my usual cuppa tea I French pressed some coffee. I should go and line up at a register at Coles with my puffer jacket on and buy some croissants for that all round Melbourne experience. Oo la la

Just a day of tidying and cleaning then dinner with friends. :)

Morning all. Going to my parents’ for lunch, so for now I await pickup

✨Wasteland Marilyn is cleaning up The Commonwealth, one Ghoul at a time ✨

Note to self....wear a mask when you vacuum the pre filter in the air cleaner so you don't cop a face of all that dust out the back of the vacuum..☹️. Hopefully there's some antihistamines still lurking in the cupboard from spring...

I accidentallied my fried rice attempt into more like a congee... Tastes good but

Just ate 1 month outta date store bought lasagne.. Was great.

Calling their bluff.

Until tomorrow.

Sky pretty. A lovely warm soft pink/orange.

Mmmm coffee

I have run out of Malevolent Ghost

Heyyo!!!

Can’t sleep woke up from disturbing dreams.

Hypothetical situation.

You are having an extremely busy week at work. You have to bring your work home with you, to the point where you're not having time for much else, like taking care of yourself.

You have a partner you don't live with. You tell your partner you can't see them for a couple of weeks because you're too busy and having trouble coping. What do you do as the partner in this situation?

Beans I say. Beans.

I've been having a headache that's as much nausea as head pain. Don't tell me the migraines are back. Then again dark chocolate is sometimes a headache trigger for me.

I'm having insights that are telling me I need to get good at art fundamentals but I don't have the discipline to practice. It's so boring and stressful to make yourself fail for the purpose of learning and draw incomplete imperfect things. Right now it seems to be enough of a challenge to get through each day.

I have been earwormed by one of my AI song versions that I already deleted. This is a special new sort of frustration!
