    Gratitude thread!

    Me today - went to a pasta making class with a couple of family friends. Nonna’s cooking class is better but it was still fun.

      I went back to yoga after a short break with a cold, I feel all stretched out.

      I have a cat on my lap and a cup of tea to drink. And I bought myself some flowers today to brighten the house.

    One of last night’s dreams involved being on a cruise ship and sharing a room with some friends. Unfortunately I missed the first two days of sailing and when I boarded, I asked the friends to show me where the room was and they had no idea. We then walked laps of the back corner of the ship looking for the room and it was no where to be found. I woke up feeling tired from hauling around my luggage! Think I’m feeling a bit of the mental load lately, which logically, I have no need to.

      I’ve been giving the finger to 6am rev heads on my dog walks. It’s a suburban 40 zone, fuck their muffler, fuck their crackle tune.

        I had a rev head in a WRX tailgate me and just about run me off the road when I was taking a load down to the new place. At 6 am, and in the rain to boot.

          haha as a former Subaru driver I will apologies, we sometimes forget the rain affects other drivers. Though i woulda thought in a turbo’d AWD you’d have to be a bit more careful, guess not.

    Colleague who’s also job searching told me her application for WFH insurance gig was rejected pre-interview (she has much relevant experience), and that there were 850 applicants for the role 😬😬

    I tried to get an early night last night and hopped into bed at 8, but I just couldn’t slip into sleep. I took a mg of melatonin and it didn’t work, so I took another after an hour or so. By 2am I’d taken 4mg and still couldn’t sleep. It was honestly really weird. I was tired and could barely open my eyes, but just couldn’t click into the sleep zone. I wasn’t really thinking about anything, I was just laying with my eyes closed. I’ve never had that happen to me before

    (And I was moderately tired when I got into bed, which makes it stranger)

    Went down to Fairfield yesterday, it’s such a nice spot.

    I lived there for a few years and I feel now I didn’t get to take full advantage of it. If I had the pannier bags for my bike then I’d never have to take the car to the main street

      That deli/smallgoods supermarket up the non-station end of the strip was great. Used to be like a shop in a shop, called Marissa’s kitchen. Best selection of cheese I’ve seen in Melbourne. I think it had some kind of woggy name last time I was there, Cardamone’s or similar.

        They do have a great selection. I never went there much because it was on the other side of station street to where I lived and crossing is a nightmare.

        A Lebanese supermarket has opened there, Oasis, and the place is great. They make a lot of their own products and everything there is quality
