    Normally I love putting stuff together, like Ikea furniture etc etc

    I’m now in a room with the door locked trying to build this cat tower and there’s a monster on the other side of the door who is DEMANDING to be let in.

    Edit: She realised if she jumps high enough she can pull the door handle down and open the door.

    I put on the first Paddington movie for the boys the other day because I heard it was good when it came out, and it is quite good.

    It’s silly and over the top in all the right ways, with a villain that’s just evil with clear motivations. It felt like a 90s movie made with today’s technology.

    Also turns out the director worked on Darkplace and directed all the Mighty Boosh episodes so of course it was going to be good

    Bailed and went home, while partner and his dad go to dinner. My everything hurts, and for the first time Macca’s has made me feel better rather than worse.

    Thank you nuggets and fries 👌🏼

    I don’t know if I should continue doing this assignment that I am attempting to do. I keep going around in circles trying to find suitable papers. It is four days overdue and we have a 5% per day late penalty. I want to submit something but I have two other assignments due end of this week that I haven’t really started and want today to be the last day I work on this.

      It’s gonna be alright, maybe focus on the other two assignments, and let this one go. You are capable and savvy, and if your instinct says to work on the other two due at the end of the week, then maybe it’s worth listening to :) trust yourself. You can do this! I’m sending you all of my good vibes and energy to you over the ether! 💜

        Merci beaucoup <3

        I’m going to wake up nice and early tomorrow, go for a run, then submit something at the end of the day. Then work on the others.

      Ugh… Tempted. Gave up on cleaning the house today and been in bed all afternoon as I’m just beat. Craving a cheesy treat. But I think I’ll leave that for tomorrow when I’m with a friend and have my leftover pasta for dinner tonight.

            Pita bread and whatever veggies and deli meats you want, tomato paste, spinach. Slap that all on a pita bread, oven for 20 minutes 180-200c.

            You can also do leftovers pizza. Whatever leftovers you have, slap that on the pita and cook. It’s much tastier than takeaway honestly

              Gives me ideas for next time.

              Going to cost it all to see how well it goes.

              I think when it comes down to it I couldn’t make it cheap enough to beat some of the frozen ones.

    Of thank F…!

    Commbank finally reversed the duplicate transaction that put my account into the negative by a large margin.

    Spent the whole day stressing about it. I hope that’s the end of the ordeal and nothing else happens.

    Might actually think about getting a 2nd bank account somewhere else just as a backup sometime.

    Now I finally concentrate on doing other things other than worrying about things.

        They did maintenance last night and when it came back live it started duplicating transactions I made on Thursday, which happened to be when I had some payments to make.

        It really sucked and just shows if something like that happens the bank won’t be there to cover you.

      That’s a relief for you!

      I have accounts with a couple of banks for that reason. I’ve considered starting an additional one too, but I’m not sure if that’s overkill.

        Yeah so it doesn’t leave me in a bind like this even though it’s exceptionally rare.

        Anyway I’m going to destress tonight if I can. I’ve wasted basically all day monitoring it all.

    Unsure if this going to edit my previous reply, or make a new comment. Does anyone else use connect app on Android? Whenever I try to make a new comment it ‘restores from draft’ and prefills the comment block with my last comment.

        I use Jerboa too. Every now and then it takes too long to load and times me out, and I can see stuff but not do anything until I assume the mods tick a box.
