ThornburywitchPower went out at 3:30, then came back for a second, causing several BINGS throughout the house… then went back out. Was only out for half hour or so before another round of BINGS. Thankfully we knew to turn off all of the light switches that have smart bulbs before the power came back on. Still, sleeeeeeepy.

No named day, but I’m on leave and TheVoid has a birthday day before 😜

Works for me :)
Bottom_racerSounds good!
Took a while for me to change my sheets yesterday because my back hurts. I’ve noticed after some years of being alive that I lean to one side when standing. I wonder what that is for.
Anyway, after beautifully making my bed yesterday, I wake up today to the sheet and doona on the floor and a dead arm. Yay.
Were you checked for scoliosis as a kid?I wake with dead arm/hand often but that’s a hyper mobile thing
Not that I know of! I might ask my mother today.
That’s funny - we found out my sister is hypermobile
Was once upon a time standard. Bend touch toes, answer if you’ve begun menstruating. Done.
Ikea currently doing a REWIND TO 1996 on their page.
You shut the hell up that’s the year I graduated high school
Heading back to melbs today. Didn’t fall off the roof so big success. I do have an unexplained bruise on my left buttock though 🤔
Looking at what people charge for gutter / downpipe cleaning I would do terribly in that line of work. Took me aaages.
P’s back tm so jumping back on OPERATION FOOD for ol’ girl. Been very nice not locking horns w/ anyone about medical or food things (or any things) for the last 2.5 weeks.
Rusty Raven I was back at the doctor’s again today and had more blood taken. I’m not sure if it’s the new doctor or the magic new 50yo label, but the difference between now and a couple of years ago in terms of interest in actually doing screening tests etc. is very dramatic.
I’ve always been a bit annoyed by all of the ‘ask your doctor about X issue’ type messaging because I’ve never been to a doctor before that actually had any interest in following anything up. It’s always felt like it’s somehow supposed to be my responsibility to figure out what health tests etc. are appropriate and then to try to convince a doctor to sign off on doing it. Having a doctor that actually wants to arrange for things in a proactive manner is a bit of a novelty.
MeanElevatorMy local clinic (been going there for 8 years now) is absolutely amazing at following up. The GP we started with is no longer there, but there are 3 others that are great. No worries with getting tests and referrals. They always recommend doing a full spectrum analysis of everything.
Also, bulk billing since day one.
The appointments are kept to the minimum time (10-15 minutes) but if anything is out of the ordinary they’ll arrange an extended one.
A while back I ran into one of the GPs at the shops and he was asking me how everything was since the last visit.
This is awesome.
then to try to convince a doctor to sign off on doing it.
They aren’t the easiest to deal w/ I can say that much.
So glad you found a good gp. My experience is identical to yours. You’ve described it exactly! I’ve had a few different gps over the years and they have all been similar. I figure maybe it’s my appearance or way of asking, maybe I seem too well? Also I don’t go that often, so they don’t really know me? But then shouldn’t someone who isn’t a frequent visitor be taken seriously, because if I’ve shown up at the GP, I have a genuine concern.
CEOofmyhouse56The other day I was helping YL with her room and I noticed a floating shelf box that she’d bought. I placed it on the side and told her not to put that up. “Yes Mum”. I told her not to move the furniture on her own. “Yes Mum”. I go in there and the furniture is moved. Hmm.
I go in there a little later on and the floating shelves are on the floor, pulled out of the box, instructions open. So I confiscated all the bits and hid them, minus the box. Nothing has been said about them in 2 days.
Today she brought out the box and put it in the recycling. Nothing was said. I took the box and put all the bits in there and hid it again. I wonder how long it’s gonna be before she mentions it.
kittens home, tucked up in dining room with His Lordship while I keep a loose eye on Cerys.
Max’s damaged tail looks like a lot more than that, he limps on his right and sits splayed. No matter to us, he’s ours regardless of if he ends up a diaper wearing wheelchair hoon, but they really shoulda disclosed that
Oh damn… damage to their tail is basically spinal injury and can affect toileting and walking, that’s right.
I have my fingers crossed for you but if it gets to that point Kmart sells Anko brand pet nappies in different sizes and Big W sells pet wheelchairs. If that helps.
With orange kittens driving, your house will turn into the Grand Prix
StudSpud The StarchyInspection on Monday. Good incentive to clean up my depression clutter but still ugggghhhhhhhhUUUUHQHQHAHAHQSHHSIBSUPSGIWVHEIHWWONXNXYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ad infinitum
I don’t hate them anymore, I use them as an excuse to deep clean the place, otherwise I can be lazy about things like wiping skirting boards and whatnot.
It’s a good excuse, and honestly it is the kick in the bum I need to sort my mental health out.
But also, fuck REAs 😂
How can so many of them be so awful? 😭
Feeding the cats today was a full on 10 step mission.
But it’s done and the food can be eaten whilst they stay dry.
TW mental health
Today has been absolutely brutal. I had a hyperventilating breakdown in my GP’s office because I just can’t take it anymore.
I’ve made it through decades of things that would have broken another person and handled all the human deaths. But I’m continuing to go through hard shit while in severe chronic pain on the daily. Right after the death of my deeply bonded pet that was keeping me going.
I’m seeking mental health help. But fuck me it is hard to just keep on endlessly living like this.
Just say there’s 9 lamb chops and 3 people. Each person receives 2 perfectly good sized chops but one person may have put away the other 3 for ron because they are her favourite food of all time.
Question: Is that fair even though the cook always cooks the greedy little pigs favourite food and allows them to have the leftovers and the cook doesn’t ask for nothing and could happily take her shirt off her own cold back so the greedy little pigs could stay warm?
useless_modern_godFirst the toilet paper, then the petrol. Now it’s lamb chops.
Gotta prepare
