Australian. Weird Mum. Occasional crosstitcher. Beginner in crochet. Comic collector/lover from 1976 to 2010ish. Only child. Hate crowds. Shortsighted. Nap lover. Black cat owner. Melbourne Gal. Customer Service Survivor. Previous latch key kid.
Just got this off EBay. A view scratches but we'll see how the vinyl plays. Banger of a soundtrack.

Australian music in 1984.

Not surprised but disappointed musical artists aren't referenced anywhere.

Introducing my 10yo son to Fleetwood Mac via Rumours.

Every single song on this album is sooooo good. Feeds my soul.

When I was 15yo (1990) I modified a crosstitch pattern for my Craft class. I had never done any hand sewing previously.

I no longer have the piece I made.

But! I found the original pattern and have just completed it. Here it is, just washed.

Celebrating 35 years of craft.

Very pleased.

It feels wonderful when you reach the last page of a pattern.

I get that. Today my own void cat pissed on my rug after i managed to clip all 4 paws and administer worm meds.

She's lucky she's cute.

A final thought on Superman (2025):

Loved Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor BUT every vision of him reminded me of Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder (2008). The styling, the intense delivery. Just younger. And less hair and gold.

But I'm weird.

Tonight we watched The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996).

First time I've seen it. Quite good overall. Kiddo enjoyed it too.

The Pirate Movie (1982) had so most songs recorded in Melbourne! I didn't expect that!

And seeing David Hirschfelder and The Peter Cupples Band listed as producers too. Love it!

Such a fun soundtrack. ❤❤

The Pirate Movie (1982). I watched this on my Beta tape player most weekends from around the ages of 9 to early teens. I currently own the DVD of this movie.

This 2 lp record is the most amazing purchase I've made in many years.

I'm on wegovy.
I've lost almost 10kg so far.
I have a long way to go.

I couldn't finish this breakfast today. I'm not going to want much for the rest of the day.

The science of this stuff is wild.

(This is my first public statement about Wegovy).

These should only ever be full size. And should come boxes of 6 or 8 instead of 4.

What a day! My son has turned 10.

And scored a free ice cream with his favorite lollies mixed in!

Add in some donuts & new Switch games and I think he's pretty happy.

(Not to mention all the other gifts he's received so far AND all the other unlisted junk food).

Found these while doing a tidy up. All done in the last 5 years.

Really need to work on my current stuff.

My 9yo son just asked me if I knew about Bonanza.

Totally confused, I asked him if he meant the old US TV show.

"No. No Mum. The new game Donkey Kong Bonanza that will be on the Nintendo Switch 2."

And I felt our age gap of 40 years widen ever so slightly.

First Superkick for my kiddo tonight.

Nice mild night for it. Good group and amazing volunteers.

Don't know if my kiddo will ever get to team playing but what he gets from Superkick is fantastic.

So apparently slouch sock are making a comeback.

As a teenager in the 90s in Australia I have mixed feelings about this....

Just introduced my son to #Tekken3 on my #PSOne

He's loving it now but I suspect it will soon be followed with a desire for newer Tekken and we no longer have any Playatations other than my PSOne.

It's the only PSOne game I actually own now.
