i did a thing today and it went very well

The remainder of the soil is covered up in anticipation of rain. And in my need for a rest before I haul the rest around.

I decided to give goget a whirl today to meet a friend in an awkward part of town and do some errands while I was at it - gee it’s a rather pricey venture once you add it all up. I can only justify it by doing multiple things on the one trip and hope it’s all close by so you don’t rack up heaps of km. Car Next Door (now Uber Carshare) is not much better at all given its high booking fee - $7 per booking! - and not very transparent pricing.

Flexicar looks like better value for money but unfortunately the closest car is 2km away and no PT in between…

E: holy cow the final bill was $62.20 for 3.5 hours and 30 km. Think if I need to visit a friend next time I’ll just take a cab/uber and ask them for a ride if I need to pick up or move stuff…

Third night in a row I can’t get myself to sleep. Next time the melatonin is coming out at 7 and it’ll be a full tablet. I also have forgotten to eat much today so upon having two slices of toast my stomach has performed quite the symphony of gurgles.

Hooray for sunny Wednesday! My toes are frozen… I desperately need to spend more time outside

I’ve just popped into the office and was standing outside this room thinking about whether I should go in, so I did.

Shout-out to any folk at DH who may be getting some rough news this week/having their teams decimated. Rough time.

The first delivery of soil has officially been moved - just in time for the next load to be delivered! I’ll try to get the second planter filled today, then cover the rest of the pile to protect from rain and fill the other areas I have over a bit more time - this is exhausting!

Comedian Cal Wilson has died. Sad news.

I love it when I buy new technology gadgets and I pass it to the man and say “make it happen please”. BTW it’s a skipping rope with Bluetooth and a app and shit. I just thought it had a battery and it counted skips. Not my problem. I told him “you’ll have fun with that”. Secretly he loves this kind of shit.

Codral original do your thing, I need to push through work today. Really wanted to take another sickie but these bloody client deadlines have come thick and fast this week and we have several people on leave.

Lunchtime in the sun planned, hopefully some solar power will help me get better.

lovely day so I’ll be going out walking and doing some errands

then back home to do my emails and messages

Enjoy the day everyone 😘😘

Rewatching The Shape Of Water, and I know people go “hurhur fish fucking movie”, but seriously it’s such a fantastic movie. The cast, the cinematography, all of it is just, chefs kiss.

Well… shit. One of my fave colleagues has quit as a result of the boss closing the place on Fridays. Which means we aren’t closing on Fridays anymore because there aren’t enough of us.

Ate my first mango of the season. So good.

Remember guys if you put a bolt or screw in something some poor bugger might eventually have to take it out. PSA brought to you by me having to angle grind the anti-rattle bolt off my towbar.
