Thankee chef!

Watermelon salad and some grilled bacon and hardboiled eggs please Bacon

Life lesson for today. When you buy a remnant of corduroy to make something, please please please zigzag the edges BEFORE pre-washing it. I am now going to have to run a cleaning cycle on my washing machine which I did not plan to do today. The lint was abominable.

Must have been scratched at some point. Then the internal tension of the tempering coupled with a temperature differential would have done that. I once worked in a skyscraper in the CBD where this happened to the external glass cladding. Turned out that the clamps that held the glass in place had scratched the glass in one corner when they were installed. On the morning of a very hot day after a cold night (like last night) the glass went boom crash opera all over the pavement outside as soon as the sun hit it. The security guards thought it was a bullet but turned out to be nothing so dramatic. Just fizzics and poor installation technique.

Also 🧁🧁🧁🧁🧁 to share. And some 🐟🐠🐡🦈 for Gibson.

Spot on reasoning. The other side is a good goal to work towards. Stressful process though.

Market run early this morning then essential gardening only. Norf wind gonna be brutal today. All housework has been banished to Sunday cos cooler then (I hope). I hope Sunday brings the promised rain - everything is getting a bit dry.

It will pass - moving house is a big life change. You done the right thing - just the process remains and that has an end date. Hopefully then you can relax a bit and do something nice for yourself as a reward.

More than one. The guy got fixated on particular topics.

I didn’t know I needed to know about these, but I do. stab proof jackets

Friday night in Thornbury just got a lot more interesting.

The socks might be for deadening the sound of the hammer breaking something. I too reckon it’s time to borrow Hambam for a week or two. Or even Butters - who is quite capable of sneering a burglar to death imo.

Me! I did so not steal the strawberries. Merely aiding and abetting those who commit such hideous crimes.

I would like some curried strawberries on brown rice with a selection of seasonal vegetables please Bacon. And a large strawberry daiquiri. I don’t care who you have to steal the strawberries from.

Thursday. Nearly the weekend. Give me strength.

Wait until you have to buy bras for other people. This is a whole new dimension of not fun. Did that while my late bloke was working in Timor Leste for the army as a contractor just after the fighting stopped. The army women found that they couldn’t buy bras locally due to size and durability issues - like, a bra would last for a month or two at most and were usually far too small. And the uniform issue ones were truly horrible to wear if you were a generous size and even those were in short supply. So my bloke asked me to buy up bras at Vic market and send them up to Timor Leste. I’d get a list of sizes and had to find as many as possible to those specs. Then the fun times of arranging postage …

Chop them in half across the equator, let the cut surfaces dry a bit then sprinkle with sugar and put under the grill until the sugar melts and goes a bit brown. Eat with a spoon. It’s the perfect antidote to a rich heavy meal. Thank me later.

Congrats! Looks luscious!

Will do my best.

That’s cos the game is not ‘getting the work done’, the game is ‘being top dog’. I agree with melba that this goes nowhere good. Put on your own oxygen mask first. Good to know that steps are being taken.
EDIT: I’d put money on this person’s work history being littered with similar situations.
