Can we get a pic of the sweet potato and a banana pls?

a goat horn

Very sturdy chewable for a teething puppy

Chew toy. Like dried pigs ears. Used to get goat horns for my old dog - lasted a long time and completely absorbed his attention - for days.

What kind of toy did you get Chook?

Alamutjones - 4w
Imagine a dinky little basketball hoop with a ball that fits it

Thank you everyone for the kind words and wishes, this is such an amazing space. Thanks for being you ๐ The meeting with mother went fine, minimal narkiness. Dono dropped to the shelter and they were so excited by it that I just started crying. Am now home with wine, a whingey cat and a very, very kind and loving Boyo.

You are the sweetest thing, you deserve all the kindnesses and love. ๐

Seems like everyone has hurt themselves in some way today, so I'll add to the pile.
Sharpened my chef's knife yesterday and promptly cut myself as you do. This morning though it's a really clean cut so the sharpening worked. Problem was I'd had a few glasses of wine before so it didn't look very pretty.
11
Seagoon_ - 4w
I'm ok so far. ๐ค
also, those really clean cuts seem to close up nearly instantly

SpinMeRound - 4w
Seeing my mother today for the first time in over 5 years, so of course spent the night going over every possibly argument and guilt trip she'll pull up. However, am taking Boyo, who she hasn't met, so she'll certainly be on her best behaviour.
11
SaneMartigan - 4w
You don't have to see her for another five years if she's a dick about things.

melbaboutown - 4w
Or ever

Hope all goes well for you. :)

She can make her own choices about how to behave...but if she chooses to be shitty then that has a consequence, and it won't be a reflection on you

Catfish - 4w
All the luck! ๐โโฌ๐โโฌ๐โโฌ

Big deep breaths. You are strong, capable, kind and loved despite her intentions to make you feel otherwise.

This made me tear up, thank you ๐

Every child deserves a parent but not every parent deserves a child. Hope it goes okay.

Food poisoning, so of course everyone is inviting me everywhere today for things i really want to do (ice skating with seldom seen nieces, friends belated b'day because he's been caring for his mother after chemo, most likely last ever anniversary bash for local pub as their building is slated for demo)

Just parted with my mother who will be leaving Melbourne tomorrow at like 6am. Good times. Weather for her stay turned out so much better than anticipated. I've copped a moderate sunburn which I don't mind at all because I'm probably vit D deficient normally - and dont mind some extra colour on my skin. Today we didn't do much, roam around Albert Park lake, into Prahran to suss the market and get lunch, the home for a few beers on the balcony.

Seagoon_ - 4w
Sounds lovely . ๐

Saturday. Bloods drawn for next week's quack appointment, shopping done, laundry on the line. Time to head out for brunch and/or go to the nearest BWS to top up on booooze. Decisions decisions ...
PS. It's a lovely day out there.

Seagoon_ - 4w
yeah, I should get a move on too :)

Sprained my foot. I wrapped it because I'm not going to be goddamn bed bound today, pinky toe ligament be damned

I scored some retro tech at a garage sale. Some beats by dre, a teac hand held combination disc plyer tv , a small clock radio. $30.
9
melbaboutown - 4w
Thatโs a good haul
4
Seagoon_ - 4w
the beats are old school, cable only , I'll put new ear covers on for hygiene, otherwise perfect
the tv and disc player needs a power adapter, I think I have one that fits

Food continues to be a PITA for me but Iโve contributed to Food Australia ๐ซก

Hopefully by the time I come back on here, I will have done at least one section of my assignment.

Hang mothballs on the rose bush. Won't stop the snacking entirely, but will reduce it.

I've only got the cedar variety currently. Negative RAT shop pending

Deterring possums requires the old fashioned naptha ones. Which I reckon are horrible in the house but work quite well outside as pest control. They do melt in a lot of rain, but in dry weather last quite a while.

melbaboutown - 4w
Is it possible to buy or make a mini greenhouse? Just to shut potted plants inside at night
2
Catfish - 4w
That was on the Aldi agenda, then the crud landed

Take it inside and feed it up, it will regrow

Today at the beach all the birds were standing on rocks in the water, even the birds far away

It's been OK out here, having a seperate room for the studio but I'll take a 2 bed unit near civilisation any day
