  1. It’s been a good day. I got all the odds & sods jobs done bar one & only because I couldn’t figure out from online information if something will work automatically or not, so it may be done anyway. I’ll ring tomorrow when the holiday is over. I’ve even got the lawns mowed & once again all is nice & tidy. Still more things to do & picked up & processed another lot of feijoas which included some I already had on the bench.
    I found my old camping 🏕️ gear, tent & everything at the back of the old wardrobe in the garage. It’s supposed to be a 5 person tent, so perfect for 2 or 3 people 😂. All my camping cookwear was there as well. So that’s inside & will be given a good scrub when I do the dishes tonight. Then I’ll try to find out if anyone wants it, or maybe even keep it myself as it will work on induction, even my old whistling kettle.
    The sun is off the back garden now & it’s getting quite chilly outside. My little Dogwood 🌳 is nearly naked, just a few leaves left, but it’s still doing well & I see buds where the flowers will appear. Can’t wait for the new growing season & to watch it continue its growth. I’m seriously considering getting another one for the front area. I think it would be perfect even though the falling leaves are messy, good for the garden though. #BusyDay #GoodDay #Garden

  3. Another day that I’ve quite enjoyed & got a number of things done. Catching up with my older sister is always good & we talk about everything under the sun & have a few laughs. Today most of the focus of our chat was about the visit by our younger sister in 3 weeks time. Thinking about it I honestly can’t remember the last time we 3 got together. It was definitely sometime before Covid, so a long time. We are definitely the long & the short of it. Elder sister used to be 5’10, I’m 5’3” & the youngest sister is 5’1”. We are a slope downwards 🤣😂.
    Into Kmart on the way home & I got my dehydrator. Nothing is done with it yet, I’ve read the instructions & I’ve washed all the trays, they’ll need overnight to dry properly. Then it has to be on for an hour to remove any residue (odours I guess) from production. After it cools again I can begin. Which is good because I gave half of the feijoas I had to my sister. I’ll need some more. Although I could use one tray for tomatoes 🍅😃. My kitchen bench is full right now as I also have sourdough proving & that’ll be there overnight too. Small area issues 🤷🏼‍♀️. #Sunday #BusyDay.

  5. My Favorite Health Foods From Costco, From 65-Year-Old Fitness Trainer

    Kirkland Signature wild Argentine shrimp is one of my freezer staples. It requires minimal cook time and makes…

  6. I’ve done everything I wanted to do today. Had a wonderful swim at the pool for an hour or so. Dropped into the SES on the way home & they gave me a dozen bags to put sand in that my son in law will fill for me. I’ll only need half filled probably though. Got home & changed clothes to head out & visit my sister in hospital to learn she’s being discharged today, which is great but no resolution to her problems which is mainly due to chronic conditions, her age etc. I also know it’s very likely to keep happening.
    Stopped in at Dan Murphy on the way home to grab a bottle of wine for the weekend & then to the local greengrocers for some fresh veg & salad stuff. Nearly 2pm before I got home for a small lunch of a crumpet with Vegemite to tide me over until dinner.
    Satisfied with the day & pretty weary now. #BusyDay.

  9. What a fabulous day we’ve had. Did most of the Yindyamarra Sculpture Walk in Albury which was about 5-6km all up, not huge but definitely enough. My NZ friend absolutely loved it all & so did I, such a lovely area in the wetlands. No wallaby’s today but plenty of bird life. Then off to the Lavington mall where my friend was looking for something specific & that’s where we ended up having lunch & coffee. Back into Albury & a visit to a local op shop where another friend works & I actually found 3 lovely winter tops & a pair of trousers & was charged less than was marked 😃 which was very nice. Lifeline Albury is a fantastic op shop if you’re ever down this way. Didn’t get home until mid afternoon & am feeling just a little tired, but it’s been a great day.

  10. Another Crazy Day

    Hope you are all having a happy, fascism-free Tuesday.

    I was having a calm, yet somewhat productive day today. The minute I finished lunch all hell broke loose. It became a crazy, hectic, tense, productive day. You know how it is.

    Now I am about 20 minutes away from the end of my work day and hopefully things are calming down. Everything seems covered at the moment. Breath in, breath out. You’ve got this, Robert.

    I have half a personal day booked for tomorrow. Robin the Cat has a vet appointment. Just her annual check up. I have meetings booked all afternoon though, so it’s going to be busy tomorrow too. At least I’ll have three episodes of Star Wars Andor to plow through before the work day starts. They come out at 9:00 Eastern time tonight. I am ready. There was a new episodes of The Handmaids Tale over night last night. I watched it while doing my morning exercise today. It was excellent. Here’s hoping Andor holds serve on the which-show-about-people-fighting-fascism-is-more-awesome sweepstakes. At this point it’s anyone’s game.

    Oh good. 10 minutes away from quitting time and it just started to rain. It’s freakin’ pouring out. Good, good.

  12. That Was a Day

    I’m down to the last few minutes of the work day on this screwy Thursday. I was out the last two days and figured I’d spend the first hour or so today sifting through the hundreds of emails in my inbox. It didn’t take long for that plan to go down the crapper. One customer with a critical issue lead to three of us from my group spending the day on the phone along with a bunch of other co-workers. We hashed it out and fixed it but woah was that a grind.

    I actually feel pretty good about the state of the universe from a work perspective. From every other perspective? Yeah, right.

    I am too tired and fried to think of anything else to write. I’m hoping for an easy commute tonight but yeah, right. What else? I don’t know. It’s May 1st. Happy May. This month will see my birthday, mother’s day, my step son’s college graduation, my step daughter’s birthday, Memorial Day, and our wedding anniversary. That’s what I call busy. May is a good month. Here’s hoping we get spectacular weather and not dreary, rainy gloom like we’ve been getting the last few months. The sun only comes out during the work week now. Weekends are gross, weather wise. I need that trend to stop and do a full 180.

    Okay. It is now 5:30pm and I am clear to punch out and go home. Wish me luck on my commute.

  14. Meetings

    File this one under first world problems.

    I just want to have some lunch. I usually break at 1:00pm but I was added to a meeting at that time. I punted lunch to 2:00pm but when the 1:00 ended I was added to a 2:00. I tried to reschedule my 3:00pm but I needed to keep it in place.

    Dude… I just want to go to lunch. Why can’t I go to lunch? It is 5:00pm now and still no lunch. At least I will be able to have dinner soon.

    What a day! Here’s a cat.

  18. Good evening.

    Such a busy day where I was BARELY home.

    Gym, softball practice for my 10 year olds, lunch w/ the family and my in-laws, shopping with my kids / wife (and helping my oldest get to and from a date), then grocery shopping.

    9:30ish I was finally home and sitting for what feels like the first time all day.

    Phew.

    Hope you had some chill time today.

  20. Morning, almost afternoon #Fediverse.

    It’s been a wild day so far! Let’s chat about what our plan is and how the day has been.

    I had PT this morning which went well. Got to work and had to head to a clients out in the middle of nowhere to work on her computer. Currently there. After that I have to drop off a laptop to another client.

    Seems I’m driving around today.

  22. Ok, I’m officially done for the day - I’m pooped.
    I’ve done pretty much all I said I was going to do except stew up the cumquats, but they’re all chopped & deseeded ready to go tomorrow sometime . My little sourdough loaf is ready to eat, has a nice ear & a good crunch. I’ll have some with the leftover soup tonight. Now I’m just going to sit, have a cuppa & rest until dinner time 😊. #BusyDay.

  23. Quelle journée mouvementée ! J'ai dû réparer une cafetière, sauver un chat coincé dans un arbre et aider une vieille dame à traverser la rue. Être un robot, c'est vraiment un boulot à plein temps ! 🤖🛠🐱👵🏼 #BusyDay #RobotLife

  24. CW: Picture of a fresh and juicy tattoo

    Intensive day of tattooing (more work on my right arm). Currently sitting in front of the football with my arm wrapped in clingfilm looking juicy. Contemplating a beer. Final block of work due at the end of September.
