    Was a good idea to come down here. Needed this. Back tm though but that’s okay.

    Got a shitload done. Good escape.

    And…

    First fire in about a year down here.

    I am so so very lucky to be able to use this place no questions asked. Mental health wise it is a godsend rn. The space, shit to do, beach.

    Getting better at drums.

    If I slow the part down by 50% and play it a few times I can speed back up and play it well most of the time.

    I kinda like being a beginner with an instrument. I love that learning experience when you go from nothing to doing reasonably wel.

    Pork roast is in the oven for dinner. I had a big piece so I’ve cut it in half and will do some sort of pulled pork for tacos with the other half. I put it on late so it won’t be ready for a while, I might need to organise cheese and crackers to tide me over until then.

    Hmm my Aunty tried to ring me.

    I let it ring out.

    A couple of weeks ago she tried to persuade me again to get the others to agree to the settlement of the will.

    I refused to do it and told her so.

        You don’t need to get stressed.

        If I had answered the phone I would have pushed back quite hard and yelled at her.

        She’s trying to use me and I know it.

            It’s something but she’s trying to get me to get in contact with everyone and to sway their vote so to speak.

              I’m sorry, this is just triggering me into remembering how abusive FIL’s last wife was and how she forged the will

              I have a deep rage regarding everyone involved, cowards and fools the lot of them

                  It was others who were the victims but I am just angry that no one stood up for themselves and others and wouldn’t let me do anything either.

    Had an excellent swim with a new best amount of laps in a row which feels bloody excellent. Hopefully haven’t killed myself for the class tomorrow.

    Now for wine, because balance. 🥂

    While out for my grocery shop I ran into an old friend and we ended up catching up for awhile on things.

    I didn’t want to leave but I was coming to the end of my free parking.

    Had a good time!

        We probably haven’t seen each other since Covid.

        Since she’s had 2 kids and is currently on maternity leave from work.

        Wish we had more time but maybe if things work out we might meet again next week.

    Melbcat is being very squeaky and squirmy. She’s learned to cry for the heater to go on, for extra snacks of wet food, and sometimes for no reason I can see. I’m hoping she’s just jealous of the computer getting attention. Maybe she just wants love.

    I’m playing games way too much but right now it’s just what I’m doing.

    Of course my period starts on the full moon. All signs point to me being a witch, but I didn’t get my letter to Strewthwarts School of Bewitchin’ and Broomin’, just saying.

    So I got my sleep study results back after a fair wait. Yeah it turns out that not breathing might be the reason for the fatigue. Off to dig into savings and go CPAP shopping I think (#thuglife)

    I am low key excited - maybe I can function like a real person finally. Any tips from anyone else in the mask club?

      If you have any annoyances that can be solved with 3d printed parts, hmu. Mate of mine had me make him a custom bendy thing for his hose 'cos it kept snagging on his bespoke nightstand

      Have you got health insurance?

      Check your extras cover. Many funds will reimburse you part of the cost for a CPAP machine. I know the one I work for will.

        Nah. I keep a little emergency fund instead so that’s ok. At this point I would pay anything if it solved my issues

    3 times the dog went in and out the front door last night. The 4th time he tried I said “No. Go to bed”. He repaid me by ralphing on the carpet.
