So I think the friend outing I planned went well. There’s existing cracks there but when we’re all together having a good time, it’s really good. I had fun.
🌞
Just a note. It's ok if you are on your own today. Eat the eggs and enjoy.
With Friday and Monday touching grass full day I in fact need to be alone today to sort out my affairs.
I'm feeling a bit bummed spending all 4 days alone, however I sorta don't mind given the lack of alone time I will have during my 11 day trip and the two days prior.
Cheers :)
I've got hot cross buns, a fluffy cat and still feeling good from speaking to my friends last night ❤️
New plan hatched (heh) in terms of buying gifts for people back in the Soup. Because they get nearly everything there (albeit marked up) it can be hard to figure out what to bring back... and I have the perfect idea.
Discounted fancy Easter choccies! I shall head to Leo's on Tuesday or Wednesday after work and see if there's some premium local brands on sale, the kind you won't get overseas. Monsieur Truffe on discount would be nice.
So. I've been doing some trials with my adhd medication over the last 3 days.
It appears (testing tomorrow) that I have been taking almost double what I should have been taking.
I'll know tomorrow.
It would explain the anxiety about nothing, the insane tenseness in my whole body, my random bouts of nervousness for no reason, amongst other things.
Guess we'll see.
No eggs for me this year :(
But every easter I remember my old doggo Hecate, a black lab. The first easter after we got her, P's hid the eggs the night before in the garden, and us kids would woke up to find a whole lot of doggos poo on the lawn with foil in it. She was always gonna find them. She didn't get sick surprisingly.
Miss that dog.
My dog once stole half a block of chocolate off the coffee table. I left the room for 2 minutes and when I returned he was acting really shifty in his bed so I checked it and found it buried in his blankets with 2 squares nibbled out of it.
I had a childhood cat demolish an Easter choc basket. Also miraculously seemingly unharmed. Bloody rascals.
Happy Chocolate for Breakfast Day!
Cleaning up old photos. This one is near perfect.
Is that a shoe on the table? 😡 Apart from that very cute 😊
I like your tastes in books, especially the fantasy stuff.
Little orange girl I'm pretty sure. She's a lot smaller than the other orange kitten.
Happy Easter :)
I just opened my postal vote envelope and there are way too many options there to deal with at this time of morning. Trying to decide which of the right wing nutter parties to put last will be a challenge. Probably the arse-trumpet party, due to the absolute disgust I feel every time I see one of those awful ads.
There’s exceptionally strong competition for bottom of the ballot.
Once upon a time the arse trumpets were at least amusing
Found the corpse of the Spaghetti Flying Monster. He sacrificed for our chocolate.

I am in trouble. Bill has had fresh meat 3 days in a row. He was disgusted to get it again and is demanding that delicious dinner with gravy that comes in pouches. He even shows me where the pouches are,
Going through some old shit.
Here's an original propaganda pamphlet dropped from ze germans from me old grandfathers days when serving in Tobruk 1941 (!).
Also have 'classified' maps. I had no Idea the ol' boy kept those until today.
The War Museum in Canberra might like those. Or the Mitchell Library.
Really hoping that rain promised today eventuates. It's been so dry recently!
Last two days saw me sink into disgusting goblin mode just eating and scrolling and watching tv without really enjoying any of it. Today I shall vanquish all the chores, wash my greasy hair, and start packing.
I went for a walk to the shops earlier in my gym stuff and got fucked on by the rain lol
Another Easter weekend spent with the close fam.
I'm kind of resentful that my kids didn't grow up with the extended family, just for the gathering experiences.
But the relos are so toxic, there's nothing to miss except for a headache and anxiety.
Also, Severance season 2....what in the fuck am I watching and why can't I stop watching it.
Severance S2 almost feels like a different show that's for sure.
I feel you about the tension with family. Sometimes I feel sad I only have one subsection of my family I really can connect with. But I'm glad that I have the option of avoiding so much drama as well. Creating better choices now that I have them....
saw a rainbow
Shopping done, breakfast and decaf consumed. Hello bed.
rain across the bay
okay rinsed and risen
🧍🏽♂️
got rickrolled by maccas
Chicken wings cooked. Can’t wait to eat, resting for a couple mins then I’ll dig in.
Come on rain!!!!!!
In other news, I've effectively done nothing the last 2 days except nap, eat, play and cuddle Fluffball.
Perfection.
Also, I think I solved my almost 12 months of broken sleep.
It's the antidepressant. I feel stupid for not figuring it out sooner. So I'm not taking a 2nd tablet in the late afternoon and will see what happens.
Thanks chatgpt
Got the boys up to NSW to see the family today. It was a bloody long drive but we did it
too much choc and cheese makes 🥴
There is too much chocolate in this house.
I can be of assistance.
Feel free, the Easter bunny is nuts!
Happy Easter 🐣
Why no rain. Garden is parched I was looking forward to rain.
3rd load of dishes done

Hop hop happy Easter!
