Because I deal mostly with clients I need a second Sim card or a piece of shit hand me down from work to use.

So I asked the other day and they bought me a new galaxy s25!

I don't know even know what to say at this point honestly.

Birthday on Sunday. Going out sat night with some mates.

Hell of a year so far.

Goodnight all ❤️

::: spoiler back pain venting update Woke up very sore this morning so decided it was time to see a GP (had only seen a physio before). As the pain is not worsened / activated by pressing down in the sore area, the GP suspects something deeper than a muscle issue. Got a blood test and x-ray done and some pain meds prescribed, now we wait. I am a little worried about how this is escalating, I really hope it's nothing serious but better to be safe than sorry. I have a physio appointment tomorrow but not sure I will go, I think I want to rule out a deeper issue via the GP first.

Meanwhile my work is piling up and I'm now realising running a business solo, how exposed I am if I am unable to work because of my health. :::

Some men wonder why their partners don't have sex with them much.

I'm here to tell those men, they need to cook dinner more often. It's in the Top 5 Actions that make men hot.

In unrelated news, my hot man is hotly cooking pork crackling for dinner, which he will then hotly turn into noodles with bok choy.

Second round interview is done! It sounds like a great place to work, tbh, and I think I made a good impression on them as well :3

If I get this job, it would be rad af

My favourite pair of jeggings got a massive tear, seam to seam, across the knee. So I've cut the legs off, and hemming them to turn them into a cute pair of summer shorts :3

Something about seeing freshly hatched babies out in the wild makes me happy. They're so...scrunched

Mr Woof thinks Dynamic lifter is fun-sized manure snacks. As I just spread 25kg of the stuff over the back yard he has been having a great time. I also spread 15kg of gypsum, then decided it's time to call it a day. Tomorrow I have to move the rest of the soil (about 1m^2^) to the back yard, level it off and scatter the grass seeds and a bit of fertilizer. Then it's just a matter of watering the seeds a couple of times a day until it sprouts and I should have lawn.

Edit: My neighbours pigeons approve of the grass seed. Hopefully they don't eat too much!

AITA

went to beach, played with some dogs, talked to some folks, found not many shells :) not a problem

and then the big dog

a big dog heavy came running at me and rammed into me, ok, but owner said nothing

then dog went back to owner

then dog did it again, i hear my spine crunch

I yelled at owner, stop your dog,

"he's just a 12 month puppy, i'm training him, he jumps up ( he did not jump up at all, he rammed )

( she didn't train him at all, she said nothing to her dog )

I'm disabled ( and I am, I have to be careful of my back). Owner acted like she was the victim.

"so am I. don't use that as an excuse"

i said, excuse for what?

she said, this is a dog beach, don't come here

I walked away

one, she didn't train or control her dog

two, it's a local beach, only half the people there have dogs

three, there are lots of different people at the beach

there was an elderly woman on crutches with her dog at the beach 30 minutes earlier, would it have been her fault if she was injured by the uncontrolled dog?

or the mother who was there with a baby in a pram?

i'm pissed

this is the first time I've experienced that at the beach

so my issue is with the owner

Gone Girl is such a fucked up movie but very cleverly written. 3/5.

Beach. It's a falling tide so it's a good time to go.

:)

When the man falls asleep while watching a show only to wake when it's over, I love to say "Bloody good show that wasn't it especially the end"? I wasn't watching it anyway. I just love to say it.

I think tonight might be a good night to see an aurora. I'll keep you posted. :)

I’m so tired… trying to stay awake

Can I borrow somebody's house elf please?

I have dirt! I now cannot leave (in the car) until I move said dirt off the driveway.

I have done the mowing of the front yard, so plan of attack for today is to also mow the back yard, then put down fertiliser on the front, gypsum and fertiliser at the back, then start shovelling dirt from front to back. The nature strip and back yard will also be getting new grass seed as both have patchy grass with lot of gaps. It's not expected to rain until Friday night (when I have to go to work again anyway) so I should be ok to take my time, but the sooner it is done the sooner I can put my feet up and congratulate myself on a job well done.

But first, breakfast.

The front yard is almost complete. The dirt is all down, I just need to sprinkle some grass seeds and water everything in.

The trees over the back fence are now almost all gone. It's a bit weird looking out the back window and just seeing sky.

::: spoiler before & after shots from slightly different angles :::

I can't see anything except sky over the fence if I'm sitting down.

Looks like the view from my lounge room is changing today, they are knocking down the old windbreak cyprus across the road. Hopefully they are leaving the few natives that are interspersed in a few spots. I think I'll now be able to see some distant hills and trees over the far side of the paddock, at least for a few years until they build houses in the way (and if I'm still here at this point I should have my own garden grown up so I won't be looking at just fences anyway). It would be a much nicer view if the colourbond back fence wasn't mostly in the way.

Too many library books. Again

I need bone warming sunshine, Melbourne. Rant over.

Writing challenge.

Tell me a story, but it must include these five words: architecture, light, cloud, special, chipmunk

I did much of today's UnKAOSing yesterday so this morning can take it a little slow 👍
