Daughter got her ATAR score and is getting automatically accepted into all her preferences.
Other good news, I made the 45 second microwave omelette and it’s so fucking good.
Congratulations to her 🎉
Was she up at the crack of dawn like mine?
Not quite, got up around 830. Incidentally her scores came in the mail about an hour later.
I take it yours got good news?
Yeah she did 🙂
Right on!!! Big congrats to her…and you and your husband. Your guidance was essential.
This brings joy
Congratulations to her!!!
We’re so damn proud.
yay, congrats to all the young ones for their success 🍾🥂
Good girl!
She’s the best. I told her that internet strangers are happy for her, and got a massive eye roll as a reaction.
That’s good, right?
skibidi 6/7 finna no cop I think.
I dabbed in her general direction.
Yay!! Congrats to your daughter!
It’s a proud moment for the whole fam :)
he loves his sleeping bag lol
He is glorious!
He’s got a sweet spirit, gorgeous boy!
i am this gif this gif is me
🫶🏻
it’s been 4 hours
Are you still ded?
What a great day (so far)
Assignment was marked!! Would’ve gotten a HD but I still passed!!! Yay!
My dad asked me if this was the kick up the ass I needed. I hope it is. It will be. I will not repeat these patterns next year.
Also, it’s sunny and a house down the road has some cool Christmas inflatables in their lawn (imagine having that much space in your front yard)!
You got lucky, they failed me for that years ago.
Saturday night is work Xmas party.
I feel like it would be a terrible idea to drink around these people.
What do you guys think?
If you’re new / still in probation, best to be on your best behaviour. A couple of drinks is OK, but not drinking at all is fine too.
Work Xmas is always a terrible time to drink. Stick to sodas (various) and leave early pleading cat responsibilities.
The cats. They need me!
Don’t drink unless you want to risk becoming a story of the night. Love, a Lesson Learned (several times over)
(unless you can handle your drinks and one or two is okay and you are okay with cutting yourself off. I have no cut off button)
I probably have 1 or 2 drinks every couple of years, so I might keep to soft drink juuuuuust in case lol
My work Xmas party is going to be a bunch of adult children drinking. I am not going.
I have to go. I agreed when they asked in my first week and I was too dumb to say no.
No drinking at work functions. Not even one. Socialise, get seen and go home.
and no flirting either
Solid advice.
If you’re able to have a few do so, but make an early exit I reckon… Gotta feed the cats.
don’t drink
For me personally I would try to avoid going as the vulnerability to missteps are high? But also with some jobs you’re kind of forced to network or they hold it against you, so idk read the room the best you can on that.
Maybe go and subtly stick to a drink that looks like alcohol but isn’t. And probably leave early because as the night goes on things tend to get more messy.
Suspended again on reddit for … positively discussing wogs and skips in the wog blanket thread. Looks like reddit ai can’t tell the difference between discussing racial issues and being racist.
I thought wog was a term of endearment now
So did I.
Dentist. Do not want!
Do not want, but have achieved. Bravo
Good on you for going!!
I didn’t throw up, so that’s a win
Same. I’m overdue. I’ll have to pep talk myself into making an appointment for January. Hope you only have a routine check and not any serious work to get done.
Thought I needed fillings, but apparently not quite yet
Great news!
Well yes, but I had brain in gear for coping today and…
I feel like the job interview went well. Now to the waiting. My mate who works there said a bunch of people haven’t been showing up so I reckon they’re keen but I don’t want to count my chickens and what not.
Off to Sydney this morning, I’m upset to be leaving our good weather for days of rain 😭
I really wanted to beach, there is a sunny morning on my final day so possibly then.
Supposed to start storming tomorrow anyway so you’re just beating the rush
That’s the one good thing about Sydney, they have some great beaches.
I maybe addicted to finishing a jigsaw puzzle YL and I started yesterday. It’s a puzzle of world flags.
ooo, that puzzle sounds awesome, would definitely do that one 🙂
My new puzzle this week is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Wave_off_Kanagawa
Yeah good luck with that.
This is what I’m working on
I love this so much!
that looks like terrific fun 🙂
🐤 knockoff! 🐤knockoff!
It’s that blessed time
Put on a fresh cream coloured hoodie this morning. Spilled coffee on it 15min later.
Coffee coffee coffee
Sorry mate, that genuinely sucks

Made it back down the bellarine.
This morning was the 5th consecutive weigh in for ol’ girl >45kg up from 39 so taking it easy until xmas / new year. I was very much unpopular over the last year and a bit lol.
Thankfully relationship b/w ol’ boy / girl / me survived all of that.
If I were to do it all over I should’ve been more aggressive food-wise earlier being honest so bit of a fuck up on my part.
so some good news
hope it all continues getting better 😘
It’s not a fuckup on your part. You’ve been given all of the responsibility and mental load of a caring job that ol’ girl fights against and ol’ boy (or bro) doesn’t assist in.
Some things are too much for any one person. Don’t blame yourself for the outcome when you’re the only person that stepped up.
We live and learn every day. You’ve done an incredible job of keeping her well despite her resistance to your efforts.
All the stuff on today’s todo list is done. I even steam cleaned the upstairs rug. It looks brand new.
By next week every single cupboard and drawer in the house will be organised. Everything in it’s right place. All junk gone to either op shops, given away or turfed.
UnKAOS will be complete. It will take minimal work to upkeep the house. A few repairs of furniture, chair legs need stabilising is the only house job left. Might sort my LP record collection. Turf some I don’t want.
beach, tv and art work projects beckon 🙂
I’ve done it now.
Melbcat was crying to go outside because the sun hadn’t reached inside yet and I caved. We’re sitting in the hot sun and she’s probably getting new fleas. And now she’s going to keep asking! I just thought I’d ease up a bit, keep her happy.
I just hope other animals don’t bring in parvo and that she doesn’t make a run for it.
Edit: She’s asleep… Still outside. I’ve grabbed the umbrella to shield us both
It will be fine. People go outside all the time.
But I burn easily, have weird neighbours and can’t leave her out alone to take a toilet break
Take some deeeeeeep breaths, focus on Melbacat’s cute little sleeping form and allow yourself a moment. You have so much going on, just enjoy this moment. And when you need to go to the toilet, she’s had a lovely dose of sunshine and outside and it was awesome of you to allow it!
I’m just hoping the magpies don’t swoop her. (The black cat was getting dive bombed)
keep an eye on her
it will be fine , Melbcat is a grown up cat!
She makes a break for it too, used to vault 6 foot fences to escape
