@Jynx I’m ok thanks. Was able to motivate myself to get some stuff done this morning which I’m very proud of after leaving like 2 of those tasks a few weeks (one of them being almost 2 months) late.. -.- now I just need to be able to find the time to write letters back to my penpals.. but lucky they both have been very patient but yea it’s not good to leave them hanging for long.

aaaand I was able to finally edit my video after leaving it hanging for almost a week (cause eventually I pretty much just lost interest in it lol..) I was able to cut the video to less than 30 minutes short in total now so that was great. It even helps me to lessen the burden that I feel when it comes to editing a video …especially when YouTube isn’t even something I’m passionate in doing.

also, I’m gonna be having a session with a peer worker in 2 days so that’s great. Plus her and I have both been away in December so it’s nice to catch up with her again after more than a month.

@Blackcloud ahaha two months late, that sounds like me!! Good on ya though, check you out kicking goals!! 😎

ooh nice, it's always good to rekindle after some time away!! Is that with SANE or another peer work service?

@Jynx @It’s with SANE! she’s a lovely person to talk to 🙂

@Blackcloud aww yay!! We love to hear it!!

Much on the rest of today for ya?

@Jynx @Not really no. I was thinking about heading down to aldi to buy a few things this evening but i don’t know if I am going to.
AAAAAAND…I don’t know if I’ll be able to write letters back to my penpals today lmao and hopefully I’ll continue editing my video for a little bit just like I was able to this afternoon

can’t wait for the weather to cool down a bit tomorrow since we’ve had 30 something degree days for almost a week now (except for that one day from a few days ago where it was rainy and it was like a bit below 20 degrees all day)

@Jynx what about you?

@Blackcloud Mm it is always so peopley at the shops!!

I do love that you have penpals, that's so wholesome 😊

Yeah I'm keen as for the cooler weather! Summer heat makes me cranky 😑 It's rained a bit here this arvo, hot muggy rain though, blech!!

Probably just some tidying, maybe do some sewing, I got a couple holes to patch up!!

Welcome to this week's laundry run.

Walking into the laundromat this week and this lady (who my favourite barista and I concluded was an Airbnb host) was using all 6 machines.

There are 2× 18kg, 2× 14kg and 2× 11kg, the equivalent of 18 loads of washing and $56 for washing alone.

I need an 11kg, but that's beside the point. This was selfish and it bugged me.

@avant-garde as if you wouldn't choose to do some at a time rather than taking up every machine. That's really just rude and selfish if you ask me.

I'm glad I don't have to use laundromats, I don't think I'd have the patience for it 🤣

I have a routine

Washing takes 36 minutes typically, so I go get my coffee and see my favourite barista who knows my order and my name and is typically very pleasant to talk to.

Then I go to the op shop and talk to the two volunteers there, one that is quiet and the other that has no filter and a bad memory who every week asks me about the public transport when I actually drive there.

By this time the washing is done and I go and transfer it to the dryer for 32 minutes in which I then go to the fruit and vegetable store that has high end produce and fancy schmancy stuff where I get something on clearance like rice paper rolls for dinner and reorganise the clearance section.

After that I go to the gift store and get a new deck of cards or some hardware thing and the lady there has started to actually appreciate my knowledge into the quirky gift world.

I will then fetch my scripts from the chemist if I need any and go get my clothes from the dryer.
