Melbourne

Myself and Miniest were just in an incident where the bus driver had to slam on the brakes really hard to avoid a collision. I ended up on the floor in a weird position with Miniest on top of me, with a container of cookies she made in Home Ec stopping her head from hitting the floor. Cookies ftw ✋🏼🍪🤚🏼I heard a weird gristly sound (either my neck or cookies) She saw people hit their head. Nobody bleeding or seriously injured (that I know of) but I landed on my own arm and it's a bit sore. It'll be bruised tomorrow I reckon. I was carrying some Cinnabon cake and a frittata and both were undamaged! 😮😃This is the second time this has happened to me on a bus, so just sayin be careful out there!

It's Gibson's "welcome to ruling a human life" day next week.

I found the photo I took before I opened the cat carrier at my place

this is the new fish Bluey, it's the family fish but I seem to be the one who is looking after it

it's really quite cute

Happy cat day. I just ran into this random person with a cat powered back pack and they let me take a photo🙂

blimey, I fell asleep at my desk so went for a nap, must have needed it

I ticked off another item on my ' meant to do this months ago' list. I just ordered a UPS for the modem so I can continue to have internet in the case of power failure. It also means my security cameras will be able to continue recording even if someone flips off the power switch. Most of the cameras are battery operated, but that doesn't help much if there is no internet to send the information to.

good night everyone

sweet dreams 😘

special hugs for melbs and sheila

Today is my perfect summer weather. Sun’s out, refreshing breeze, none of that awful humidity from yesterday. Too bad it’s a work day but I’m out enjoying it for a bit.

Once again, I am influenced by this delightful corner of the internet. Have picked up PHM to read, hopefully in time to watch it at the cinemas!

🐈‍⬛ 🐈‍⬛ 🐈‍⬛ A day late here, but it was Cat Day in Japan yesterday. I've decided we should celebrate this today. Post cat pics, please!

Alfie, needing to get involved in everything I do.

Mofusand goodies I bought myself for my birthday.

Happy birthday to my terrarium which turns 7 today!

Facebook reminded me of a post I made about the workshop I did where it was created. The original plants I put in died after a couple of years, and I replaced them with some wild leafy plants I found growing on top of the water tank. They are not the most aesthetic, but they are surviving. I thought they might not survive the move as I don't have anywhere very bright to put it in, but it seems to be going ok so far.

Big news! Good Tiger have finally put out a new album. Born In A Doomsday Cult was so good, I've been waiting for something new from them

Oh man I wish I had the physical energy of when I was younger. I’m not even that old. But at one point in my life I had everything under control through restless energy alone.

When I woke up it was 8 degrees outside and still 15 degrees inside. It is still a wonderful novelty to have a house that is properly insulated, my old house would have been almost as cold inside as out. I also have a magpie sitting on the back fence singing for me.

It's lovely to have some cooler but still clear and sunny days. I've got the next week off and have some gardening plans and it looks like the weather is going to fully cooperate. Unlike the last break in spring where it was near constant rain. The current plan is to do some work on edging and weeding the back garden over the next couple of days, then have a load of mulch delivered on Wednesday. I'll get a eucy mulch for the native area and to do the path area along the fenceline, then I might get a couple more bales of sugarcane mulch to refresh the herb garden.
