There wasn’t enough room to space them out properly and I kept losing where I put individual seeds after patting them in so I gave up and kind of randomly sprinkled. I can thin them later. Though I hate doing it.

Right now I’m kind of just getting things done sloppily and rushed or they won’t be done at all

I've been dashing around doing laundry, and tidying (not that the place looks that much better for it!) Then decided we needed to go shopping so the Minipeelers decided we were going to Broady. (They had Schnitz and other treats on their minds I think). I wanted to try the Choice rated Aldi laundry powder (it was actually very good, I did another load of washing when I came home) and dishwasher tablets (haven't tried them yet). We also did Schnitz, Kmart (Eldest needed shorts for school), Coles (Miniest likes a cheese that is only sold there, the Great Ocean Road Extra Tasty, and parbake mini croissants are also her lunchbox addiction), EB Games (Eldest wanted to give Skyrim a go). I've walked for hours, then got home and remembered I hadn't done my exercises today, so I did those. Miniest wanted to make guacamole (to go with the baguette she also wanted because she rarely meets a bread she doesn't like) so we did that. Now I'm resting before sorting dinner out. I tell ya, I don't feel like cooking that's for sure, but it'll be sausages so nice and simple.

God trying to get a working with children's check is an absolute PITA. I spent about 40 minutes last night trying to get a "passport quality photo" and couldn't get it to work. I even tried my actual passport photo I got taken at the post office and apparently my face is too close because my hair was ever so slightly messy and a couple of strands went a little bit over the edge of the frame (thanks auspost lady for cropping it down...)

Wwdits before commencing landscaping. Cloak of duplication, top tier ep. Kayvan novak knocks it out of the park impersonating his costars and Nadja comes in at the end with a big steel chair to steal the show.

Ugh, I think I actually do have a cold, not just my ear refusing to pop. Maybe that's why the cat's been sitting on me literally almost all day.

Got around to watching Barbie. I laughed, I cried, I sat in thought. I don't care that it was anvilicious, it was a great bit of fun. The musical sequences were a lot better than I expected. But I really don't think Ryan Gosling looked the part, it was very distracting...

If I ordered 6 Schnitz parmigana meals delivered to work, stacked them to create my parmigana lasagna dish and ate them at my desk do you think anyone would say anything? I would have enough chips I could share a couple of those with my co workers, that should settle down any complaints, right?

I would buy them and take them home. Then get a lasagna tray and make the lasagna. Let it set and then you can make slices of it!!

Mask making is moving forward slowly but surely. All components obtained, patterns made, pieces are being cut. To make 1 mask I cut 6 pieces of fabric!
