    Today I saw a group of people painting in the room I sit in every Tuesday. I asked them about what they were doing, and they asked if I want to join them. So I spent an hour painting and chatting with some randoms instead of doing my work oops. Was fun!

    It’s been a lovely sunny day today, and there are more sunny days expected too. I might even get a chance to test my air conditioner on Thursday.

    I aim to plant all the plants I have in the garden over the next few days and hopefully make a start on planting some seeds. Then I can think about getting the soil for the lawn .

    I think I shall be retiring from the Fitbit ecosystem. My watch is three years old and randomly disconnects with the phone. It won’t tell the correct time anymore. Called up Fitbit and they said to update my phone, then try connecting the device again, which worked for a few hours. Going to call them again tomorrow.

    Today at the beach I saw a seal. Apparently it’s very cranky and the council has fenced off it’s basking area.

    He’s the light brown lump at the end of the breakwater.

    Role has requested a police check. I told them what happened over the phone, and clarified further in an email.

    Ball is in their court now.

    Ordered catering for another presentation I am doing tomorrow, the same one I did a few weeks back but at another location. Hope I get some clients out of this with the amount I’m spending on food! Went a cheaper option this time, a mix of sandwiches / focaccias with a side of cookies and brownies from a local cafe. Hopefully that pleases the crowd. I’m expecting double the amount of people compared to the first presso, slightly nervous but I’ve done all the hard work already, it’s just rinse and repeat.

    So when I was in Perth, I spent time with niece playing with my collection of insta-dry nail polish. Most of it got ruined (colours mixed together, etc), but I’m not upset! I knew what would happen and I wanted the quality time of “making potions” with her 😍 besides, it’s just cheap Sally Hansen shite anyway haha

    The bonus is that I get to start a new collection of colours!!! 😍😍

    The dark red is called Cinna-Snap and the pink is called Pink Blink. The top coat is Bejeweled, which just adds that beautiful glittery shimmer!

      They look great - especially with the top coat!! That’s so sweet you were willing to sacrifice your paints for the sake of potions, did any turn into fun colours or all a write off?

        All were a write-off 😂 mixed up with sand from her backyard so there’s a bunch of sand that smells like chemicals 😂😂

        But we were all very witchy about it, her and I. I bought her a green nail polish while I was there that I left with them.

    Ode to Dinosaurs and Sour Feijoas

    Hail to thee, yummy gummys!

    Chocolate thou never wert,

    That from lolly shop, or near it,

    Tasteth thy full sweetness

    In profuse strains of totes premeditated sugar.

    Yummier still and yummier

    From the packet thou art glommed from

    Like a slightly stickiness ;

    The black currant ones are nicest,

    And sweetly still dost sometimes be sour, mr seagoon likes the green ones.

    there is no milk or gluten
