My local outdoor pool is open for the summer season, and I couldn’t be happier. Two minutes from my house. Nice to see @marcuskelson.bsky.social there today too!

Also our outdoor pool season opened last weekend - but only across the border.

So across the border we go.

The carpet-bugs-in-the-pantry saga continues.

We are now spraying every shelf with a vinegar solution. And got the herbs and spices situation under control. (Labels have to go on top because the pantry is old and unlit and I don’t feel like wearing a head torch every time I cook.)

Last night I realised I had a bug infestation in the pantry 🤮. So we cleaned up the worst shelves, absolutely scrubbed. Threw out far too much food, and thank heavens it was bin night. But honestly it was disgusting.

I need to clean four more shelves. So I procrasticleaned the windows instead 😆

So my #dailywalk fell into a bit of a hole when I returned from Melbourne late last week with the most incredible ankle pain. Physio diagnosed me with some weird tibialis tendinitis that runners get. lol. RUNNERS. Anyway back to the pool I go.

Day 3 of the #dailywalk self-challenge. Forgot to track activity but I did do over 9000 steps for the day which is pretty bloody huge for myasthenic wobbly legs. Lots of walking through State Library and to theatre that night. Also swam 1000m in the hotel pool which helped with my ankles immensely.

Day 2 of #dailywalk and well I’m visiting Melbourne so I’ve walked EVERYWHERE and my feet hurt but hey who cares because ART.

Felt like a walk so I did a walk. Wonky legs struggled and heaps of paranoia over shit footpaths I can trip over but I managed a bit over a kilometre with Nordic poles.

I guess I make this a daily thing this month to regain confidence and also leg strength?

Heavily into sewing gifts at the moment. A glasses case with vintage Japanese fabric, some drink coasters and now another friend and I are making a quilt from our respective sewing rooms, for a mutual friend. (Lots of texting of photos happening to make sure we are on the right page).

G’day. Forgot about this app for a bit, soz. What have I been up to? Swimming, quilting, embroidery, travel. All the best things in life that retirement can offer. Today I had massive scanxiety for my 6-monthly thymoma oncology appointment. But all made better by breakfast and a book straight after.

And she went back for another swim and this time did 30 laps for the first time in over a year. Take that, busted shoulder.

After my sudden hatred of swimming last week, I reluctantly went to the pool today … and loved every second. 1.2 km done and dusted.

Watching this right now on CNN live. Best excuse ever to not go swimming.
June 7, 2025 at 11:12 PM
I think I’ve fallen out of love with swimming.

Aggressively ghosting my former supervisor and I’m teetering between feelings of ick, guilt and utter triumph.

But figure if it took them 3 months to contact me and acknowledge my departure with a lame e-card, it can take me 3 months to reply to their “I miss you soooo much let’s chat” texts.

Just back from a fantastic solo road trip to Brisbane. Art gallery exhibition opening, a brooch community event, and lots of friendship and laughs with new friends and old.

I’d never been to Manly before even though I was born in Brisbane. It was pretty special.
