Yarrabyte has clearly celebrated a little too hard again. Must order some more beroccas, they’ll need them and I’ve run out of the hair of the dog.

She thicc
My aunt is trying to give me unsolicited dating advice. She is only about 15 years older than me, but the advice reads baby boomer. The man should pay, buy you flowers, open your car door, spoil you. What if I want to spoil a man? What if I don’t even end up dating a man?
Her credentials include being in a ten year unfulfilling relationship and now a six month one where the guy has paid for mostly everything. I don’t know anything about the guy, except he makes money and takes her out to dinner. Her view is that I’m a coward because I want to grow into myself more before I date someone. I think you should be mostly happy with yourself before you date someone, or you’ve got a big fat lesson in self-love coming your way. Haha
buy you flowers
I used to grow flowers to give to an ex of mine. She and her mum always complimented that they last so long. When she found out I didn’t buy them she didn’t like them any more lol.
Wow, that would make me love them even more! I’ve been wanting to grow more flowers for ages. Extended family are currently growing waratahs in the backyard and they are gorgeous.
Ex for a reason lol
Hahaha Jesus Christ man.
What? Growing flowers is loads more effort than just buying them.
If I pay $60 for a bunch of flowers, that’s something like 1-2 hours work. Growing them? No idea how long that takes, but I bet it’s longer than that.
It constantly amazes how many boomer hippy feminists are all into men taking the initiative, men paying, men treating them like a princess, the women see it as a power move
it enrages me
and it also enrages me how many men believe it too , they also see it as a power move
No one is treating the other as an equal , no one is talking , making plans together,
and it’s not normal, it never was , successful relationships were always based on respect and equality even if there was division of labour
also, we have stop measuring people and actions in monetary terms
the home grown flowers are beautiful
but so can shop bought flowers be beautiful
it’s all about intent of the giver
and the values of the recipient
She’s a millennial 😛 but yes it enrages me too and I agree with you. I didn’t love the movie Materialists, but it does exaggerate how materialistic modern dating is.
I have always, and will always look for an equal.
Not a slave at my whim nor a monarch who requires tribute.
This. It shits me when people think men should do all the “charming”.
Be careful of these types. She might try to sneakily set you up with some rando just so you ‘have someone’. Because they pity single people and think that’s doing you a favour.
What if I want to spoil a man?
Be careful of doing that too unless you want to pick up a hobosexual. Which you don’t. (Btw they come in every gender.)
Staying single and growing into yourself is a really good option.
Thanks.
I don’t think she’d be that bad but she did say she would swipe for me if I had dating apps. No thanks.
Today I learnt what a hobosexual was. Definitely won’t fall into the trap of becoming a sugar mummy hahaha. shudders
I have finally submitted a slightly overdue assignment for my course. It’s pretty rough, it’s the last subject and I’ve really lost interest now. I just need to do one more assignment well enough to pass the subject and the Diploma is done though. I am looking forward to not having any more assignment deadlines hanging over my head.
Today I did 10,704 steps. I took the Minipeelers shopping for a gift for their dad (it’s MrExPeelers birthday in a week or so) and we wandered all around Northland. When we got home I saw I’d done almost 8,000 steps, so I got out my trusty hand weights and did some step core and upper body exercises combined until I kicked it over the 10,000. Normally when I come home from an adventure with the kids I’m exhausted and want to go have a lie down, but my strength and endurance is slowly improving. Also my t-shirts seem to fit better. Yes! 💪🏼
Shopping is great cardio!
I’ve been meaning to start doing weights and am inspired by your progress
I should too but one thing at a time.
( maybe those ankle and wrist weights would be good for me??? )
You inspired me to buy a new fitness tracker. I got a new one, so cheap now and it’s great, does everything I want.
Just guessing my 3km 3x a week hikes don’t seem to take that many steps, maybe 5000 at most , and I walk slow but it’s roughish terrain, I jump around on rocks and across very uneven ground so that seems to be helping my fitness. The tracker will tell me!!

Hair of the dog is something I have plenty of, anyone in need is welcome to grab some!
Wonderful! Please sling some my way.
And I’ve picked up a cold from the 9mn old niece. The green snot should have clued me in, but I would have appreciated some warning from BIL 🤦♀️
Children = magic germ collectors. Not a fun Pokémon
BIL and his wife would be quite shitty if we didn’t attend the BBQ they’re having at FILs place. So I’ll go with a mask on and tissues up my nose and we’ll see how they feel then 😂
sorted out tshirts and tops today, things me and miss seagoon will never wear, a big bag of good stuff, all clean and in good repair, not worn out either, for the op shop
I need to do that soon. A lot of stuff could go…
Problem is I don’t want to let go of the daggy old stuff as that’s what I feel more comfortable wearing.
Man, this family. They get together and it’s like the in-laws (myself, sils husband, bils wife) don’t exist.
In-laws gotta stick together I guess 😂 it would be easier if they didn’t talk over us tbh.
I do love them, sincerely, but we’re just accessories I guess 😂
God practice is so tiring. 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 over and over with the metronome.
Gah.
It is, but I’m sure it will be worth it!
It had definitely paid off, I try to keep reminding myself of that when my brain feels like it’s going to leak out of my ears lol
Second this. Anywhere where there’s not many people, and it’s clearly visible that you are NOT being attacked. I would not recommend the reception area of your local police station cos screaming there could be misconstrued.
My fear would be worrying people that I’m in trouble. Now to find a beach where I can scream.
I suggest in the car (maybe not in traffic) or underwater
Also, hope you’re doing ok
Cheers. I’m okay thanks, just have to let off some steam.
Pity the footy season is over, I always found it ideal!
I screamed in my car earlier today, and it was justified. The world was TESTING me today.
Into a microphone (at a rehearsal room, very cheap during the day).
i’m awake
When Melbcat went to the sunspot in the other room I sunscreened her nose and quickly changed the bedding. Then I took the chance to vacuum behind the bed and bedside table, and re-scrub a stubborn spot where a drink had spilled.
I had to use the loud vacuum and the scented carpet cleaner plus keep the furniture off so the carpet could dry (towels then air). Melbcat came in really quickly to investigate though. She’s stressed about the rearrangement and tried to walk on the damp chemicals 😩
I’ve put a towel down with the furniture over it now and multiple windows and doors have been cracked the whole time to air out the perfume. Oh man it stinks. I have the kitty inhaler ready and will probably keep the fans on overnight.
My back definitely has an opinion about today.
40/50 yayyy!! I must be a kid at heart.
50/50 😧
50/50
Thanks for taking away my feeling of being special in 8 minutes flat
You have always been special ❤️

50/50
Finally I quiz I can do!
Ditto! Annoyed I got the farting one wrong
I’m surprised as you are a veritable Dean Swift as to farting
35/50.
I hit our luggage suitcase last night and hurt my little toe. Now it’s bruised and it hurts to walk a bit. I’m not sure if that means it’s broken or not, but at least today will involve a bit of driving and not walking
