Fam xmas over. Everything washed up and put away. Furniture back in correct place. Time for badedas bath and a glass of prosecco. I love them all dearly but whooboy it's hard work with 2 under 3 years old in the house. Good meal and talking tho. My oldest boy BROUGHT THE SAME GIRLFRIEND AS LAST YEAR! This is a first! Maybe he's settling down at last. Or has run out of options which might be more likely. Will wait and see.

Someone likes his new bed
Cosy. Plus with room for more sprawl in warmer weather if required too, very nice.
I should get my dog a new bed.
$15 - $30 from the Reject shop. The $30 one was lush and big enough for me to curl up in.
Happy beach doggo
hey buddy π
( I call all sweet beach doggos buddy )
I am thoroughly drunk and still have to get home from Seymour autpr orrectect is saving me nor not βοΈso much who keyb ie died
How are you getting home??
Super productive day tackling tasks that only get done on holidays. Cleaned out and reorganised the pantry, found foods buried in there with embarrassingly old use by dates. Cleaned the fridge and freezer out as well, pulled out all the shelves / compartments and washed them. Also patched up some wall plaster movements cracks that appeared like more than a year ago and stare me in the face every day, just needs to paint the affected areas tomorrow. Iβve never done this DIY fix before so hopefully it works once I paint. I am not handy at all but I try. Even fit in some exercise too. Thatβs enough for today, now I chill.
I AM DRUNK OMG
you seem like a happy drunk π
You betπππ
Yo the red hair is super cool
I rate it
I AM CHUFFED OMG
Girl we gotta have a catch up ππ
At some point absolutely!! Hopefully I will have some pink in my hair by that time!
Yassss girl I wanna see your pink!!! Personally, punk is a fantastic colour!!
cool
THAT TOP IS EVERYTHING!
I bought it from Dangerfield a few years ago lol! I have a few items from them that have stood the test of time, highly recommend. I only shop there when I have a job hahaha
Heck yeah!!! That shop has some real wins!
Went to Highpoint today. Note to self: avoid major shopping centres anywhere near Boxing Day sales. Kmart looked it'd been pillaged by the Hun. Everywhere there were kids screaming like their parents were being murdered in front of them. We'd find something one of us liked but then not in the right size etc. It was busy even for that place. My anxiety prone elder minipeeler hit the limit of his tolerance for that kind of thing even though it was his idea to go in the first place. I felt similarly and I called time on it. What was I thinking? π€¦πΌββοΈ
I feel sorry for the poor workers who have to tidy up the ladies shoe department. That shits grim.
Isn't it awful! And in shops like Uniqlo where everything is always so neatly folded, having to go around and endlessly refold everything.
I have averaged 2 hours of naps per day since Christmas Eve.
The Spanish have figured out life centuries ago.
Been super productive and slightly buzzed all the time.
SIESTA
Good night everyone , sweet dreams π½
tomorrow is a rest day
everything done
friends were gobsmacked with their pressies π
she took over my kitchen and did everything for me!! That was awesome.π
I thought I was drunk but it was just sunburn making me feel warm ...lol
Two chairs (office chair and comfy chair) and one of two plant shelves constructed. Am tired. Taking break before the last push.

It very weird spending money on new things. I have spent my adult life thrifting but have also realised that making a one bedroom apartment function needs just the right things. And I am actually pretty impressed with the IKEA quality. And it will be nice for my plants to have a home in the sun and be able to sit among them.
Hope everyone is having a nice day so far!
Day trip to Inverloch was beautiful! We went down to the jetty and there were nine stingrays gliding around!! They're such beautiful creatures.
I had my family Christmas today. I was given some yoghurt treats for Mr Woof and a kitty bag of left over salmon for Miss Meow. They were very well received.
Westgate Bridge roadworks added over an hour to the trip heading east, but only about 10 mins coming back the other way. I am definitely glad to be out of the car now.
I picked up my new vaccuum cleaner this morning, but I don't think I can be bothered unpacking it tonight, that can be a tomorrow thing.

Jaysus. Iβm worrying about everyone else around me but itβs really me whoβs not coping.
Living where I am is still taking a toll and Iβve had a string of major life events that would throw anyone. Things that need to happenβ¦ may not. It feels like nothing is ever going to be okay again.

Did the Lego star wars exhibition at the museum today. E kids are a bit young for star wars but they enjoyed it anyway. I haven't kept up with all the shows or watched the last movie so it can feel weird to see Lego sets and characters I don't know. I'm so used to seeing rehashed Lego sets from the same 6 movies as they try milk everything they can from the franchise

I have spent the last hour trying to figure out how lazy I am today. I have decided I'm not too lazy to go get lunch in the city π
January's edition of Healthy Food Guide magazine has a 4 week beginner workout plan and a 4 week challenge plan for active bodies. I recommend this mag for anyone who wants to change some not so good habits into good ones.

Weeding -> mulch moving -> shop -> beach swim -> cheese kransky -> making fart noises on the 'puter -> midnight snack -> bed.
Which calls for a rave choon.
Bed -> shower - > supermarket - > couch -> bed lol
Great tune!
Todayβs going to be a very chill resetting day
If Florence and the Machine were a rapper, she should call herself Fatty M.
Y'know, 'cause "Florence And The Machine" = " FATM"
