Taking the Minipeelers and MrExPeeler to the Aquarium tomorrow. Never been before so it should be fun! Still exercising daily and managing a minimum 6,000 steps per day. No doubt will do more than that tomorrow!

Hi Peeps. Just about to get on a plane back to Melbs. Have missed you all.

UpdateDIL has pupped out 2ndkid, and had surgery immediately after for other issues. Both doing fine. DIL's mum is present and will be doing the 1stkid wrangling from now on for a bit. So I'm not needed. Thank gods for the German health care system - it's been a joy to navigate compared to here.

Good to hear, hopefully everything will be okay

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

I was thinking of you earlier today, hoping that things were settling down. Glad to hear they are.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

So happy it all went well :)

Went to Sweet By Nature in Heidelberg and picked up some bulk brownie offcuts and some mini new York cheesecakes. Unfortunately two very tired boys banged their heads on the same table and would not calm down so we had to leave early

Dear cat

Kindly refrain from napping all day because I am weak and would also like to nap all day.

Boyo: I had a late lunch, I don't think I'll want dinner tonight, so you have whatever you want.

Brain: Cheese!!

Me: No, you're organising the cheese plate for tomorrow night's party.

Brain: Eat cheese!!

So I'm cooking cheesy pasta as a compromise with myself. Annoying I've been craving salmon all week (which boyo won't eat) and my brain went nah, I don't want that anymore.

The pots keep drying out… I hope the seeds will sprout rather than having germinated and then died

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

I have finished work!

To El Jannah, and thence to blissful not-doing-stuff!

Cheers! Departing from beer to give some aldi red another go tonight. 🍷

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Be sure to have some water, I've had the most rotten hangovers from Aldi wine.

Someone tell me why they plant the jizz trees in schools. Were the people in charge of procurement wanting people to be reminded of that smell?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

My place came with 8 jizz trees in the garden - four in backyard, four in front yard. Someone was obsessed. The front one's are starting to jizz up now and they're extra smelly.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

My condolences.

Redevelopment must be costing too much.....insurance?

Hardly any updates because SILs home is in a 5g deadspot, and their Optus WiFi isn't routing properly and won't let me access Lemmy 😂 I have to go for a walk a few streets away to see your beautiful posts lol

Having a great time though! I've seen so many insects and birds.

I think this is a Giant Grasshopper

I haven't been able to ID this one

Partner says it's a Spitfire but spitfires don't look like that, and Google lens says it's a US moth except they're not in Aus

super tired

Wind on rubbish collection day is always fun. I picked up a bunch of wrappers blown into the corner of the yard, but Mr Woof made off with an empty chocolate wrapper before I could stop him. It was a catch and release, I can now see it blowing around the back yard. I also picked up the instructions for how to install hybrid floor boards that have presumably escaped from a nearby building site.
