I would like Jupiter to align with Mars please.

They're not really that simple, they do the planning and provide the ingredients but there is still a lot of actual cooking and chopping involved. They also don't do single meals, so you either need to work out how to divide it over a couple of nights cooking or have a lot of leftovers.

I really should be doing some cleaning but Miss Meow has me pinned down on the couch and is purring madly.

I did get a small shelf for my toaster oven assembled and have put up the small fence to keep Mr Woof and Miss Meow away from the side gate. I now have a small utility courtyard for the bins etc., and hopefully being open metal bars instead of solid it won't trigger Mr Woof to try digging under it to get out to come and find me when I'm away. He seems to stress out if I'm gone more than about 20 minutes.

I choose to believe that is a ring cake. My slice was delicious, not donuty at all.

I bought a thick soft mattress topper (10cm thick bamboo) and also got some new linen sheets. It has definitely made the bed extra cozy. I also have a heated throw rug on the couch though, so there are lots of competing cozy spots around.

Whilst I do enjoy a good drive in the countryside, in the dark trying to get home from work is not really the time. I think the GPS was trying to send me the long way around to avoid some traffic, but driving back country roads you don't know in the dark is not fun.

In good news though I had many packages when I got home, including the lost Bunnings parcel that has been spending the last week touring the state. Miss Meow has some new steps, which arrived with a bit of damage but seem to be holding together ok, and she also has a new mat to go in front of the litter trays to help contain her wild litter flinging ways.

I also have a couple of rugs which look fairly lightweight but should be decent enough for occasional use in the garage, a stand to put the toaster oven on, a rolling stand for my computer cpu, and new rollerblade style castors for my office chair. I just need to figure out how to get the old ones off.

And also a set of coasters I threw in as a last minute impulse buy and actually look pretty decent - each one has a similar but different pattern.

I'm tempted to start another account just so I can upvote this a second time.

I had to read the comment a few times before I could understand it, because a father hearing his daughter screaming in the night and not running in straight away to find out what is wrong and providing comfort just didn't make sense to me. Actually berating her for it is just appalling behaviour.

@LowExperience2368@aussie.zone the only question to ask here is WTF is wrong with your father, you have absolutely no reason to feel guilty.

Miss Meow agrees that sleeping in is the best way to deal with today

Happy birthday ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿฅณ

Maybe when people are finding money a bit tight they do try to get "deals" like buying EOFY discounts and trying to claim things on tax? Hopefully the contrast of busy now and relaxed later will make weekend celebrations even better?

Thankyou! That doesn't show on my app so I had no idea. Maybe I should just add my own cake to all my posts today?
