Bot appears to be napping, so today’s thread is brought to you by the colour thirteen, the number puce, and the total fabulousness of the Numbat *removed externally hosted image*

    Please include in your app an option to exclude all fucking marketplace crap. It's a glorified shopping list, i don't need to see shit you don't have.

    Just did the weekly shop, and jesus fuck! At this point I'm seeing a $20-$40 per week increase, and that's with substitutions for lower priced items or just plain going without.

    I feel like I'm going insane when I see an item I bought a week ago suddenly double the price.

    I vote for this December as Numbat Appreciation Month. Moah numbats! Numbats everywhere! On every street corner! Roaming packs of numbats invading our parks and gardens. Enough numbats for everybody.

      I'm very happy that Numbats are actually known outside WA. there was a point where there were fewer than 1,000 left. Conservation programs have been very successful though, and while I don't know current numbers, I remember the celebration when they estimated there were over 2,000 now.

      Bot really does not like weekends. I really need to organise the bootcamp and new office space I'm planning to try to get Bot to shape up and act a bit more professionally. I have two assignments due this week, and then I only have one subject still going so will hopefully be able to find more time.

    Adjusting my sleep cycle back to normal hours is taking longer than I expected. Feel so utterly fucked during the day.

    But that's what I get for going to bed at 5am for a month or so 🙃

      Ted Cat is waking me up for first breakfast so early I'm wrecked and can barely talk. 🥴😴 I've tried putting him in his own room but he meows loud all night. The latest tactic is a big meal at dinner, maybe he will sleep more.

    Tree up, time-lapse completed, front garden tree bow done. Added a blow up Christmas elf and pig to the front garden this year. Kids loved it. Multiple people commented on the walk past. Feels good man.

    Ted is meowing like he's dying.

    He can see Bill eating dinner through the glass door and Ted wants it. Ted hasn't even finish his own dinner yet

    I've bought the 2024 planner and made sure it was a week to view with a task list at the side. (Lost the old one and am using one with a format that doesn't work well for me.) That's what has always worked for me, hopefully that corrals some of the stuff rattling around in my brain and helps me keep on top of things again.

    And a new wallet because my old one broke - my cards are currently floating around in my bag and my Medicare care is... somewhere.

    My finger slipped on a portable table easel and a drawing mannikin to make free postage. 🤫 It's Xmas. I've been eyeing them off and I've found that propping the paper up helps a bit. The ebay lap desk I have is honestly more suited to using my laptop, and kind of awkward.

      I like the sound of your planner. I find that getting something to work for the whole family is tough.. a series of personal digital calendars on different devices all synced is edgy and modern but just doesn't work well for some of us. The best thing seems to actually be an old-fashioned calendar with really big squares, but there's nowhere to list important weekly tasks. I'm glad you've found a solution!

        Yeah, sometimes I don't know which day I'll be able to complete a task and get bogged down deciding where to put it. So it helps to just get a week-to-view with the to do list and dump them all on the side so you can easily see the jobs for the whole week and do them as able.

        I have a magnetic chore chart on the fridge just for important daily tasks that repetition can blur (ie. marking off the cat's meds twice a day, tracking her toilet schedule, any daily medication or self care I need) and there is a space at the bottom and top for a couple of weekly tasks, or notes, or reminders. But it is quite a small one and for an individual.

    Room update. Bed and mattress secured. Ended up going plan A because the bed comes with a headboard which either needs wall support or mounted to a wall (so couldn't place it against the mirror). Very less space between desk and bed and a bit of wasted space in the corner but I shall downsize the desk and get something smaller. Now to pimp*removed externally hosted image* my room.
