My poor tomatoes 😢
If I catch the culprit, I’m throwing hands! I was so excited to see them growing

Went to the doctor cause I had tingling pain and a small rash from what I thought may have been a spider bite…. Nope, shingles. Fuck my life! This is so uncomfortable and it’s not even that bad compared to pictures I’ve found online. I’m so annoyed!

Took part in a charity gingerbread house competition last night for my work and came away with the big win. That’s 2 entries and 2 wins now, who knew I was the gingerbread queen?!

Taking part in a gingerbread house competition on Friday, with the theme “elf on the shelf”. I’m coming for that win with my DIY edible props! One of my nods to the theme is a mini “ do you like my ginger - bread” house?” pun (made using crostini and a chunk of ginger). I’m so keen!

Went to the Lifeline book fair in Castle Hill today, walked away with 16 books for $60. Happy is an understatement and the only reason I didn’t grab more books was cause my bags were full. It’s a book lovers paradise!

A year ago, I was staying in the Amalfi Coast and did a day trip to the Isle of Capri. One of my favourite memories of my time in Italy, I can’t wait to go back one day and spend more time there!

This flu just keeps on giving… was on a phone call with the NDIS for work (I’m WFH, not in the office) and had a coughing fit that was so bad it caused me to start vomitting. Safe to say I’ve never been more mortified and that call was promptly ended!
That’s enough work for today!

The flu can fuck right off. Day 4 of being sick and no sign of it going away anytime soon. I miss being able to breathe from at least one of my nostrils!

After years of pain, I have official confirmation of fibroids… it’s something but I still can’t help but feel like it’s not an actual explanation/solution. The medical field really does not know enough about women’s bodies and has no answers for our concerns. Feeling demoralised

Joined in on my local Relay for Life event today. Raised a whole bunch of cash for cancer, hung out with new and old friends, walked almost 30km from 9am-9pm and made the women’s leaderboard for most laps walked. A good day!

You know things got a little wild in Sydney last night when your commute to work is full of downed trees, fallen branches and lots of other random debris on the road. They were not joking about the “bomb cyclone” thing!

Applied for a better paying job on Friday afternoon, went for an interview this morning and got a call this arvo saying I got it! I can’t believe it and would never have expected how it all played out. I’m nervous but excited!

One of the lessons of Liberal Party over my lifetime is that the next leader will be worse than you thought the last one was.

Dutton got his wish. He will never stand in front of an Aboriginal flag as PM.

Switched the TV on and the Ch 9 Leader’s Debate was on… yeah, that’s a straight no for me. I ain’t trying to make my blood pressure spike before going to bed!

Having been to Vatican City last year is making me way more interested in the whole “new pope” / conclave situation. Like, I’ve been there, I now have context for where it’s all going down. The intrigue has been turned up!

Just went to Aldi and snapped up a whole bunch of Easter choc for half price. If you’re still paying full price, you’re not doing it right! An extra couple of days to enjoy a treat won’t hurt you 🐰🍫

Just as Zverev is about to speak at the trophy ceremony, a woman repeatedly shouts:
“Australia Believes Olya and Brenda! Australia Believes Olya and Brenda!”
Broke through the silence.

A tween prodigy who spent decades trying, 29-year-old Madison Keys breaks through for a long awaited major triumph, doing it with guts and gusto.
6-3, 2-6, 7-5 over two-time defending #AusOpen champion Aryna Sabalenka.
Gonna be a huuuugely popular winner in the locker room.

Kinda glad Royal Otis didn’t win the Hottest 100 with that LAV of Murder On the Dance Floor. Their best cover of the year was clearly Linger, just a shame Triple J didn’t add it to the shortlist since it was done for a competing radio station
