    This morning’s harvest

    Not a bad return on investment for the potatoes - I had a small patch in the front yard I planted about a dozen sprouting potatoes from the cupboard.

      You got this. It’s a weird sensation, spending that much money on something you won’t hold in your hand for another 30/60/90 days. Once the buyers remorse fades out, there’s a wonderful sense of security coming your way too. And the power to hang pictures and shelves wherever you want them!

    Last minute decision made to go down to Geelong for Chemical Brothers. I’ll be going alone but I’ve heard good things about this show so I think it will be worth dealing with the nightmare that is Mt Duneed estate parking.

    The little one seems to be getting hit hard by this antibiotic. She’s really not feeling well. I might ring the vet today and check if that’s normal

    Good week overall I think. Work has been a bit crazy which I’m trying to sort out with management to slow things down a bit for the sake of my team and my own mental health. Plus being at conferences doesn’t help…

    Been losing a decent amount of weight too, about 10kg in the last 3-4 weeks and starting to ‘regain’ the muscle I had when I was younger and a gym freak. I think this is more just getting my muscles used to regular exercise again so it’ll plateau soon. Just trying to get in to a health(ier) routine all in all.

    Sadly missed the weekly online co-op gaming session with friends since someone messed up the days. Also bought some new furniture to make the place feel a bit more homely.

    So all in all, doing pretty well.

    I may not be available to make the next Daily Thread. I’ll be here, just might not be able to press buttons. So if anyone is up at that time could you please do it. Thank you.

    I really can’t overstate how amazing exercise is for mental health.

    Woke up feeling like shit. Went to the gym and mood has improved 10 fold.

    Yeah, apparently things are normal. Melbcat is unhappy though. She didn’t want to eat her usual medicated dinner so I tossed it (to avoid double dosing) and resorted to mixing a meds cocktail in an oral syringe. Then gave her the hated antibiotic. Plain cat food was also given as a chaser but I can’t see from here if she ate it.

    She’s having a cuddle while everything kicks in. I’m hoping the anti-nausea pill that was crushed in there helps.

    Whew it’s been a long day of non stop social stuff from 10-5:45, after several hours of dinner last night. Happy to have a break before more social stuff tomorrow arvo/evening then interview on Monday. My physical and social muscles are so out of use…

    Now’s a good time to use up my desperately flowering basil and make some pesto, picked up some orzo pasta and mushrooms to go with. Been ages since I’ve made orzo/risoni
