My attempt at macro phone photography, featuring my dad’s attempt at a pizza oven from many years ago, made from a bathtub he found in hard rubbish.
Are those hakea nuts? Awesome picture. 🙂
Possibly, according to Google Lens!
Bathtub pizza oven! Now that is not something I’ve seen before.
At verity I didst finish listening to the audio book of The Night Land and it was weird in a good way.
The strange language, not modern but not quite old fashioned either makes it feel weird. He also evokes very good mental imagery of the future world, the landscape , the animals that live there and the future society. The sex, apparently in the future there is no religion and no shame .
Written as a history from the point of view of the main character there is no dialogue.
So strange. I give it 4 hobbits there and a couple of those tall men and a few of the ugly dangerous men and some of those vicious huge dogs and a giant sluggish monster and a volcano or two and vast desolate rock plains and a bit of a swamp too and a heroes welcome back.
I might just go the one sausage today. The Sriracha option is appreciated though
Time to break out the hot weather jarmies. And strip bed down to sheet and maybe cotton blanket only. And only 2 days ago I needed a hot water bottle. Living in this city sure makes one resilient and adaptable.
Also time to check windy.com obsessively to guess when the cool change will come.
Edit: the cool change has reached Warrnambool.Round the Twist: the Musical is coming.
There’s some prime culture for you!
struggling with water colour books, I suppose using books meant for pencils just doesn’t work 🤔
special water colour practice book has been ordered
Alright, I’m getting there. Spent the whole day carefully going through every last drawer and cupboard for stuff to donate. No time for fb marketplace although I could’ve made some decent coin off some of these - especially a couple of vintage bakeware items and an almost new vintage Corningware dish. I got em all for free so some op shop will benefit instead.
Two carloads later, between those and the remaining plants/pots, and the big shit that won’t fit in the bin, and pillows/towels for the RSPCA - and the tables sold on FBM - that’s a lotta crap gone. Gotta love these Honda hatchbacks with Tardis-like volume and the magic seats 😀
Now to pack the remaining stuff for the movers to take tomorrow, mainly the kitchen stuff. The end is in sight…!
So close! You’ve been through a hell of a lot the last few weeks. Hopefully you can have some peace soon :)
It’ll be a different kind of peace for sure… New digs are a lot more hectic and less calm. Main thing is I can settle in and focus on next steps without dealing with current LL’s shittiness or house hunting
I’m definitely motivated to get to the end of this whole thing
yay 🍺
You got this! You have formidable talents for organisation.
In an ideal world I would’ve spent a bit more time looking for nicer places, and maybe planned to cull over a longer period and sold more stuff online… but this is also OK! I get to focus on my uni stuff a lot sooner.
I would aboslutely not have gotten this far without the help of friends, though.
I dropped the pill cutter and half an antibiotic tablet has disappeared into thin air…
I find tablets when I move the fridge for cleaning, it’s a pharmacy under there!
I looked with a torch before but don’t see it… it does need a clean underneath though. I’m debating whether moving it is worth the risk of injury
It’s not worth it. It’ll just get dirty again. Have a cup of tea instead.
I have other cleaning that’s been neglected too… the clean clothes are unfolded (which isn’t too bad) but the dishes have been sitting and my sketchbook is giving me a look
I’m with magpies on this, it’s not worth it. Ain’t nobody handing out medals for cleaning under fridges, washing curtains or any of that stuff. Cup of tea ftw.
The sun has come out for a visit, I think it is a good time to take Mr Woof out for a stroll around the neighbourhood.
Favourite part of yesterday’s shenanigans:
spoiler
I think you should show Ted
You could have warned us.
Butt cheeks only! Anus has been covered
I mean, I’m not sure whether I would or would not have been surprised if you could see that. 🤣
I think Cher wore it better.
Heard about this. 🤣
Here’s another quiz for you space nerds
No I don’t.
I do not know planets apparently
Me neither 😔
Not good at planets, had some lucky guesses
10/20 better than expected
9/20 not gonna be rocket dentist anytime soon.
Same here!
Jebus, 6. 🤣
10/20 for me this time.
12/20. I am happy with that
one of the questions is wrong
Which one?
the pluto is a planet one
Pluto is classified as a planet again.
Nope. Still classed as a dwarf planet.
Poor pluto. That classification yo-yo for the little guy would be exhausting.
It’s because there’s other “planets” that are bigger than pluto. There’s debate on both sides so it’s still classed as a dwarf planet for now.
If you look hard enough at the hero’s of history, you are likely to find some unpleasant things. Gandhi, Mother Theresa, Winston Churchill. I could go on.
Don’t be delulu about human nature. There’s good and bad in everyone, it’s just a matter of degree and hopefully most of the time there’s more good than bad.
I love the Dollop podcast - there’s like over 500 episodes now so some are ordinary but it’s amazing to hear the backstory of people. Often those that are held up as heroes are not but there are amazing stories of lesser known people who fought the good fight their whole life. You can’t trust the judgement of history but that doesn’t mean there’s not goodness.
Choc chunk cookies are in the oven and the Xmas tree is up. I am back in favour with my kids once more 😆
Bit early?
I put up the outdoor xmas lights 2 weeks ago 🌟
I just had a hot cross bun.
You win.
The kids wanted to put it up about 2 weeks ago. I said no way it’s too early man! But that argument’s redundant when the shops have had Xmas stuff in stock for the last month. Ah what can you do.
What can you do? You can post post some photos? I’m a Christmas tree fiend
Bonus picture of table ornaments because I like colour changing lights
Apologies for the sauce bottle lol
Is it raining anywhere?
I decided to get some exercise and walk to the shop instead of driving.
Guess what happened?
You can’t see clearly because the rain hasn’t gone?
🤣🤣🤣
Left myself open for that one lol
Oh yes. Northeast
aaand it’s stopped. Big ole fat rain
Just started here
Starting very outer south east.
There’s a huge red patch that appeared out of nowhere over Caulfield area! We had a bit of rain down south but it went away pretty quickly.
Big fat rain out east, getting heavier. Plus many ominous rumbles in the sky.
I feel surprisingly good today. At times there’s a bit of post birthday blues, but apparently not this year!
Also I forgot I had a car so when I open the kitchen blinds, I was like “oh yeah! FUCK YES!”
You deserve all this and more. 😘
That’s incredibly kind of you ❤️
Here’s to a brighter year for us all!
