They do not

Sitting under a plane tree on the river bank, watching boats chug past.

Life is good

It is, and it’s grand

I swear to God I spoil Chook rotten. Many new toys

I had a lovely sleep in, then lolled in bed reading my book. Breakfast has been had, I am clean, I am dressed.

Some spring cleaning will take place this morning, please watch for falling debris

Ooooooh

Things to do today.

• New glasses
• NDIS admin
• back pay rent (there’s a recent screw up I need to fix)
• gym

So I tried Five Guys last night

Fries = legit, still had a really nice texture even after a journey in the front of my scooter in the rain. Massive serving. There’s a station at the back of the ordering line where you can fill your own tubs of ketchup, mayo and malt vinegar, so your chips get sauces and stuff entirely to your liking

Burger = got a cheeseburger. Thought it was decent; probably not worth as much as it actually cost, but I did like being able to customise it fully for no extra charge.

Shake = basic vanilla for testing purposes, was thicc

I wouldn’t go out of my way to go to Five Guys again, but if you’re in the area it’s pretty solid fast food

Market run complete.

My life is now improved by

• coffee
• bread
• milk
• dry pasta
• apples (Granny Smith)
• mandarins (imperial)
• capsicum (red)
• onions
• sweet potatoes
• carrots
• spinach
• tinned tomatoes
• fresh tomatoes
• zucchini
• cucumber
• eggplant
• mushrooms
• garlic
• beef mince
• can of stout to cook some of the mince with, because I feel retro and savoury mince would be the bomb
• Chook food, in a bag several hundred times his weight
• Chook toy
• bunch of bluebells
• jam donuts x 500000000 for you lot

and a new and exciting flavour of gozleme

I have news.

Milo the guide pup is all grown up. He's passed all his testing with flying colours - best of his litter - and there's a person waiting for him

Good boy Milo. Good job.

I’d like to report an update…

Chook’s flight feathers have definitely grown back. He just zoomed around my head

Milo is growing up. Only 90% of his day is spent on cuddling, and he feels this is not enough
