    I have one quiz and one oral presentation until I’m finished with this certificate! And I’ve done most of that quiz anyway, just stuck on question that the teacher had acknowledged is poorly written haha.

    But after Friday, after this presentation, I’ll be done! Then I just need to find a job (any tbh) so I can pay to get lessons for driving, then I can apply for more animal industry jobs.

    Everything is coming up thrillhouse!

    Slept terribly last night because a work thought popped into my brain at 11pm and I spent the rest of the night stressing, despite reminding myself that in that moment, there was nothing I could do to change the outcome.

    Slept 12 hours. Feel a bit better but not in the best of moods :(

    Am trying to find something to do to keep me busy but it’s really hard.

    Vegetable and bean stew for dinner last night and for lunch today. My musical contributions are… not very welcome in the office. But the stew is so full of goodness! 2 carrots, 1 large swede, 1 small parsnip, 1 whole leek, a small stick of celery, tomato paste, and just 1 medium potat. But like 2 cups of dried kidney beans. I’ll just have to go on strategic breaks…

        Did the job with filling up my gut with all the required goodies that will now be processed accordingly.

        Dinner is gonna be a greasy fried rice to offset all that goodness

    Just told my manager that I’m unhappy in my role and will be looking for another job. He took it well, said he’s happy to be a reference for me and willing to work on a good timeline with me. Really appreciate that. I’m sure HR will have other feelings, but I understand that!

    I just received what was supposed to be a dustpan and brush set from Temu. They’ve sent me a vibration platform exercise machine instead. The Australian warehouses don’t seem to be that great at sending the right thing.

    The machine is pink and has a cat decoration on it. I’d suspect Miss Meow was involved somehow if I couldn’t see the order history…

      can confirm, cats love those things. I have one, and ours like to clamber all over it. Somewhere I have video footage of misha letting out the most hilarious warbleyowl known to man

      As much as I look forward to being free from landlords, the prospect of digesting these kinds of unfathomably large numbers as a single person is also daunting. Ouch.

      Sometimes I wish I wasn’t into gardening, pesky expensive thing to be involved in if you want even a little handkerchief of usable land…

          Oh let me be clear; we don’t have 100k.

          This is what we’ve paid over the past three years. Think of it like rent. You add it up, it’s a lot, but you eat the elephant one bite at a time.

    Hi everyone, here’s your reminder it is actually Tuesday and not Monday at the start of this working week.
