just a little more sleep

my phone and computer tell me it's early but my watch and wall clock tell me I had an extra hour of sleep , so that was 6 hrs without waking up , really minimising dairy and sulphites has helped so much

also, Easter Bunny came and left treats ๐Ÿ‡

If I have one sq inch of white choc bunny a day I should be ok

The gym ecosystem is wild hey.

It's a study in what happens when a bunch of dudes (mostly) play a dick measuring contest scored by grunting.

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They're compensating due to the shrinkage effects of over use of the roids.

"men gone wild, sweat edition"

I will never not post this tune for the gym bros.

I spruced up Bluey's tank a bit , he's a lovely fish, I hope I'm looking after him well enough, I do need a water heater tho for this upcoming winter

picture coming soon

[โ€“] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

I've got a spare water heater I was using for aeroponics if you want it (same as a fish tank heater). Not very big though. I have no need for it.

Wondering if Spud is around? I'd like to send her a dm

Do I know you?

[โ€“] Catfish@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (2 children)

You could answer mine confirming GameDay ๐Ÿ˜œ

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I don't even know what that is

[โ€“] Catfish@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

That was for force

Spud is lurking but is around lol

[โ€“] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

Yesterday was a big success (I think) w/ the downpipes. Had 2 hoses going in (one town and one tank) for 30mins and seems good.

No injuries lol.

Birds were using one of the gutters as a bird bath but since re-attaching one of the corners water is moving the right way again so yay (sorry birds).

Next downpour should be okay or at least less bad.

But 2 phobias.. Antlophobia (flood) and Ombrophobia (rain) should subside.

Every few nights usually get weird dreams of falling off shit. but since going up that ladder so many times in the last month or so they've stopped for now. Not the safest way to deal with that but hey it worked. Don't feel fear in real life up there but the dreams are wild. Also the dreams of tripping on shit have stopped. Weird brain.

Time to put the ladder away and wait for something else to break and find a new phobia.

The knockoff charmeras are a hit, the kids have taken a bunch of blurry photos of things. But i accidentally wiped one card because I was looking through the options and wondered what 'format' was. Got my options mixed up and reformatted the card. I'll have to get that kid to take a bunch of new photos

[โ€“] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

wondered what โ€˜formatโ€™ was

I accidentally formatted / reset my phone the other day. Spent a few hours trying to work all the android / google things. Had so many shitty photos of food... all lost to the sands of time due to a confused finger.

[โ€“] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

It's different when it's shitty photos the kids have taken. I suggested they take a photo of all their eggs so he took it as taking a photo of each individual egg. He also held them right in front of the camera so you couldn't tell what it was as well

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Lentish for me went really well. I ate a custard tart and a medium packet of peanut m&m's because of special occasions and that's it.

On Friday I ate a hot cross bun. I'm gonna try and go as long as I can and when I indulge no big deal.

[โ€“] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (3 children)

You're better than me. I smashed 2 x 6 packs of hot cross buns over the weekend.

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I love them. All of them except no fruit because what's the point. Anyway the amount of butter I lay on is dangerous so that's why I've limited my dosage.

[โ€“] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Cut in half. Butter on both sides.

Strawberry Jam on one half, peanut butter on the other.

Smoosh them together.

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

Ooooo wow. Here's my recipe. Cut in half. Toast. Butter. Butter again. Peanut butter, a small drizzle of honey and chilli flakes. Works on toast too.

[โ€“] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I did nothing eastery this year :(

Back in uni days used to get wasted, hide the eggs night before then wake up the next day and try and find them. Simpler times lol.

[โ€“] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

๐Ÿ˜‚

I never did Easter egg hunt because I was worried the dog or ants would find them before the kid.

[โ€“] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago

I had one hot x bun with an antihistamine chaser this year

[โ€“] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 0 points 3 months ago (5 children)

I've spent much of my afternoon cleaning silver. Two cutlery sets, silver coasters, silver place mats, a sugar bowl and a beautiful silver-inlaid glass vase.

The forks are so clean, my hands so dirty.

Considering I'm wearing a WHITE SHIRT, I don't look too disreputable
