there is not much heating in this house ๐Ÿฅถ

good air conditioning tho

[โ€“] melbaboutown@aussie.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Electric blankets are like $30 at Kmart and so worth it. There are also heated throws if you want it on a chair but theyโ€™re less warm.

Warning: There is a risk of having the heat source commandeered by furry overlords

Mystery pakidge... details went to my work email, but had attempted delivery at home... very strange. Waiting for it to land at the post office so I can collect. Also waiting on delivery of new keyboard which will make life easier as this one is playing some wonderful tricks while dying.

[โ€“] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago

Pakidge was iHerb delivery of Catalina Crunch goodies, mmmm!!!

I was so tired I fell asleep attached to a TENS machine with a horror movie playing. ๐Ÿ˜‘ So thatโ€™s how life is going.

The stuff is here. Iโ€™m going to see if I have the energy to split up and rewrap the pack of soap (just so one person doesnโ€™t get 8 bars and everyone else gets none). The tp is the thin rough Delsey but itโ€™s the easiest least suss way to distribute individual rolls.

The fabric pieces of this doll got wrinkled so I have to iron them again before sewing. Note to self - 100% cotton fabric wrinkles super easily and is not a forgiving choice.

hugs, you're a kind person.

Trying to work off this horrific karma I seem to have /half joking

[โ€“] Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Do not choose pure linen as a replacement - wrinkles even worse. Poly blend would stand up to washing if required though, so could be a good choice.

Not feeling too goodโ€ฆ today I felt cold but now overheating! Must be those flu like symptoms/mild fever from the iron infusion.

Melbcat is sitting with me. Sheโ€™s so beautiful ๐Ÿฅฐ

I've been watching Dark again, the German sci-fi series on Netflix.

a few things have jumped out to me as notable but this especially,

From then on, I knew that nothing changes. That all things remain as before. The spinning wheel turns, round and round in a circle. One fate tied to the next. A thread, red like blood, that cleaves together all our deeds. One cannot unravel the knots. But they can be severed. He severed ours, with the sharpest blade. Yet something remains behind that cannot be severed. An invisible bond. On many a night he tugs at it. And then I wake with a start, knowing that nothing ceases to be. That all remains.
