We've had our ten drops of rain. Rain now finished.

Is there anything happening in the city tomorrow? They've declared southern cross and half the cbd to be designated areas, ie they can search anybody and anything in there for any reason, including no reason

I think Melbcat's still having some trouble with her ears. They've got a bit of a smell to them and she's still growing potatoes in there. I didn't do the twice daily follow up ear washes because she was stressed out from so much handling and I was physically wrecked. But I may have to do that now and potentially start the ear drops again.

Also I shrink wrapped my yarn stash in a space saver bag but despite double checking the seal the bag has repeatedly reinflated itself.

Big sky rumble grumbles down here on the bellarine. Looking at the BoM looks like more grumble rumbles on the way. Hopefully it really gets going tonight so we can get a nice piccy.

Skies darkening. Thunder in the distance. Heavy rain radar blob heading my way. It’s been a while.

This weather also matches my mood, I’ve had the worst long weekend. Need an evening of self-care with background rain.

warming up to listen to the last 5 hours of Rings of the Nibelung

this prelude is so beautiful, it sounds like each instrument is playing their own melody and they slowly come into harmony to play one melody

Oof today's going to be a rough one. 30Β° and 15-45mm of rain. It'll probably be 70% or higher all day. I hope I can go to the shops before hell arrives

Was supposed to be 12 overnight but it was 20 at 645am

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago

It's still only 14 here, and was 12 around 5:30
