Against better judgement I did some work and let time get away from me while the WBBL was having a rain break and subsequently the game got called off due to heavy rain.
Finished working and now I donโt have to do any over the weekend and I have the entire Monday off now to look forward to.
What's with all the people complaining about kids taking all the Halloween treats? They just leave a bowl out there , what do they expect.
You're supposed to decorate yer house a little, make a welcome sign then wait for kids to knock on your door. The kids say trick or treat and you decide. If no treat they can trick you. Give nice treats and maybe have something Halloweeny to do. They wear cute costumes and you get to talk with kids and community. It's meant to be interactive and fun.
the videos look like karma farming exercises. ๐๐๐
Instead of November, our can-do attitude says YESvember
It's FriYAY the 1st of YESvember!
Chief, next month is YEScember! This month is MOREvember! Didn't you see the email? Cos all the promo material is already at the design consultants.
awesome, I found a 25cm cymbiola magnifica at the op shop for $8. A large spiral shell. Not a perfect one, this one has been thru the wars when alive and has regrown it's shell. But still a cool find of a shell native to Victoria.
Been leaving before tinyest wakes up the last few days, get home and he wants almost nothing to do with me. I am home today though so he woke up with me and wanted all of the cuddles.
So cuddles only happen in the morning? I can live with that.
Finally paid off the toy sale laybuy. I tell you what, I'm not doing that in store again. Next year I'll add whatever can go through laybuy online and buy what can't in store.
All this for $300 worth of toys as well. I almost used laybuy to not have to hide everything at home for 6 months
Dinner made and eaten. A somewhat poor replica so Iโll go back to something tried and true tomorrow.
I am full though I think. Now time to relax with the WBBL tonight and Iโll figure out the rest later.
On the bright side grocery shopping is done until I need more food and I really held back on buying junk food to save money.
Also got some cheap mushrooms and onions from the independent supermarket. I actually should have bought more mushrooms in light of that.
So my ukulele capo vanished into thin air. I'm sure it will show up somewhere. Whilst looking into that, I investigated studying engineering, and realised another four years of uni is not up my alley. All whilst juggling competing deadlines. My psychologist asked me if I can see a psychiatrist because she thinks ADHD meds would really help, but then I'd be out of pocket. Now I'm making an appointment to see the GP who gave me the wrong dosage of Vyvanse initially which caused a literal and spiritual headache. Too much going on.
I really really loathe how inaccessible mental health services can be. My partner has untreated ADHD, and his psych recommended a psychiatrist too. But it's just so expensive, and he's had a rough time with work (we have the union and fairwork involved, it's a cluster-f), so it just feels out of reach.
It's so annoying you had a dr who prescribed the wrong dosage, it really leaves a mark on the trust we place in medical professionals. I hope you are able to find a way forward.
Regarding uni, yeah, my one experience with uni in 2021 left a lot to be desired. It was so much stress with so little support, and no leeway. It's one me for choosing unimelb, but it's on them for being so utterly lackluster. I'm having a much better time with TAFE in all honesty, even better than HS too. It might be worth checking out the list of free TAFE courses that the vicgov offers, there may be a different pathway you could take to what you want to do? Or even just whatever looks interesting :) sending you my good vibes!
I feel link since Filthy Friday has been kicked off by @[email protected] and @[email protected], gimme your filthy songsโฆ

Its pretty great but having to have a shower and trying to get it all off you is pretty gross.
Been going to bed real early but still feeling so so tired. I made it to school on-time, but I'm stuffed.
