Microsoft Word turned one of my dot points red, and I have no idea why. I've just submitted the assignment with one random red dot.

I am doing a terrible job of studying today. It is nice and sunny outside, so I think that I'll go and do some weeding. That will obviously help me get in the right mindset to study and is in no way another avoidance tactic.

I've just got an offer for a free month of Stan. I might have to see if there is something I want to watch.

Thought I was going to have peaceful day and rest and relax.

Nope. All fell to pieces when my partner was given news of not a great sort.

Have run out of money and wasting on my tax return to come in, which would have been here if work didn’t screw it up.

Can’t pay for the injections she needs and now have to cop an emotional beating from her because the universe hates her and will everything it can to fuck up her life.

Edit: my tax return will come within 3 business days from yesterday from a text message from the ATO

Marketplace sale finalised, paid for and in the mail. I really love technology and how much easier it makes these things. Having started off in the days of the Trading Post where everything was slow and difficult I am constantly impressed by how things work now. Being able to take photos of an item, share them with an offer to sell (for free, with no word limit!) and have the item sold, paid for and posted the next day is an amazing advancement. Being able to print a postage paid label at home (from the money the buyer gave me) and provide a tracking number for the buyer to get updates, with services linking together pretty seamlessly, is just icing on the cake.

Finally able to use reddit after weeks of flaky site problems, get suspended for suspicious activity. Seriously, 🤨

Finally got my appetite back after things got a bit better after today.

Said screw it and went to town.

Homemade burger

Didn’t quite mail cutting the bun evenly.

Burger consisted of bacon, 2x egg, caramelised onions, tomato slices, beef patty and 2x smokey cheese slices with tomato sauce and aioli.

suspicious timing on a new R/place. Also suspicious is these new Chinese propaganda ads. "People Flee the AUD" with a the CCP flag over parliament house? Disgusting.

Did my boring but important stuff regarding Medicare claims. Decided I needed a treat after some of the shenanigans of the week so it was a night off cooking and Red Rooster for dinner (our local one isn't too bad and I've been good with eating healthy all week and taking my lunch to work instead of buying something on the way). Mr Peeler sorted installments out for his fine, to be deducted fortnightly. He's been like a quiet little lamb and seems to be coping well without the drink. As long as there are cups of tea to be had.. tea fixes everything. I've always found that if you have a cup of tea as soon as you get home from work you don't get the urge to drink alcohol. I've got so many different types of tea that I'm almost scared to count. Ok, I will.. (goes to kitchen and counts) well shit, I counted 19 different teas. Admittedly there's some duplication; 3 are different types of green tea, 2 are dandes and about 4 of them probably count as herbal supplements, but still.. that's a lot of tea! And I'd still like to get more!

Just want to go to sleep but I can't be half-arsed in my night shift prep now I'm no longer doing it from home.

Good morning

Ugh, slept like shit! I kept waking up and then when I was asleep it was that type of sleep where you're dreaming and all but deep down you know you're mildly awake.

Progress has been made to a bratwurst

No tax return for me yet, but I have just sold another Marketplace item. Quite a bit of interest, so the price must be in the fair-low range. Which is good, I find it's not worth the hassle involved in trying for the maximum price, I'd rather have an easy sale than a few extra dollars.

So you think it’s safe for those salads I got yesterday to leave it till tomorrow?

I have no appetite due to how stressed I am.

The due date is today for those salads.
