My Mosaic

@Bow yay 😋

Yeah and mowing lawns is just significantly unfun imo!! Yeah honestly (generalisation but) land lords and their pet dogs the RE agents are prolly some of the biggest predators out there. Like housing ought to be a human right, it is a NEED after all, and yet they make it into a game. Ugh okay stopping myself before angry rant happens!

Yeah no one told me how easy it was to cook with? And how much FUN it is when it puffs up?! Probably not the healthiest I suppose but... hey it's a way to ensure I'm getting spinach in my diet, that's gotta count for something!!

Oh I totally agree @Jynx ! There needs to be a lot of changes made to tenants rules and all that stuff. Changes to legislation. Like a tenant contacting the RE to get something fixed does not signal a rent increase! We are terrified of contacting our RE cause of that… we just put up with stuff being broken and not working, or we fix it ourselves. It sucks.

I found some puff pastry and Nutella @Jynx ! I felt like it…. But now the thought of eating it makes me feel sick 😩

@Bow hate that hun, hate that you have to live in fear! And same for me!! I'll never find another place like this one, where I can actually affordably live alone not too far from the city! So anything that threatens that stresses me to no end! Grrrr....

You could always just prep the pastries, bake one and see if the smell helps? If not, yay treats for another day! They would last for yonks in the freezer.

I better be off hun!! Already here past my 'bedtime' 😅 Sending huggles!! Nighty night!! 💜

@Jynx Went to a Lego store today and thought of you!

@Bow !

Awesome! How are you today?

@tyme I have crashed on my bed. I need to get up and do stuff, but I am so tired. Took daughter to a Disney Cinderella meet and greet today and then the Lego store. Hour drive each way. So I’m tired.

how are you? Did you get to go to parliament yesterday?

Hope you can chill for a bit @Bow ! I just remembered, it's still school hols for D, isn't it? She's one lucky girl!

Yes, I attended the event at Parliament yesterday. There was such a buzz and all those online on the forums did such a FANTASTIC job!

Yeah last real day of holidays today @tyme back to school on Monday. And it’s D’s birthday tomorrow too!
FB reminded me of old photos of her cause I always post something around her birthday. There is a particular video that I love. I ask her whose birthday is it tomorrow and she says ‘mine’ and how old will you be? And in her super cute nearly 2 year old voice she says ‘twooooo’. I’ve re-recorded it a couple of times as she has got older.

That’s awesome! So glad you got to be there. Did you have any standout conversations with parliamentarians? I wish I could have been online then, but I was out at appointments.

Meeting Dame Quentin Bryce, Hon Emma McBride MP and others.

Listening to the real MH stories of Luke Marshall (board member) and Jodi Gordon was a huge highlight.

I think the main thing is being able to showcase the forums and the other SANE services was powerful @Bow

To think we have come this far in such a short time is truly amazing and something to be proud of.

That’s really cool @tyme 😎
