Drat it. Washed my fluffy robe, now awake far too early with out my warm thing to wear.
I’ve been seeing that cute fluffy cat from may around on the camera feed a lot. It seems to visit us a lot, I’m not sure if it always has, and I’m only noticing because of the camera saving the video, or if it’s gotten lost
In any case, I got a notification that it’s in the backyard so I went out and gave it some scritcheys. Then it was gone just as quick as it came. It seems to have a routine though, it comes in from the driveway, walls last the front camera, sniffs some plants, then goes down the side of the house, squeezes through a gap in the gate, pops up on the back camera a couple of minutes later, goes to the other side of the house, does who knows what there, then does it all again in reverse.
Sounds like I’ve been adopted! Obligatory photos (same ones posted in may, I didn’t take any today):
maybe the notyourcat is secretly training for the olympics as a weight cat
I thought the same thing at first, but on further petting, it’s actually just really really fluffy. It feels quite skinny underneath all the fluff
Awake after some very strange but weirdly satisfying dreams (ok one brief nightmare at 12 about escaping my dad - but felt good to remind myself I’m quite safe here and have choices)
Feeling really good after yesterday, I think it must be the extra sun exposure. I take plenty of vit D but there must be something else about the sun that’s just really good for the body…
Don’t want to be up though, so I shall just snuggle in bed feeling grateful and secure reflecting on all the good things I’ve got
Sky pretty.
It’s far too cold to get out of bed and look, so I’ll take your word for it
I’m feeling like I need to reduce my tetra-pak footprint. Has anyone tried one of those “make your own oat milk” powder things …?
I have a feeling diy oat milk isn’t too difficult.
Tiny nipples
Huh. I never even thought of that. You’re totally right, it’s dead simple and I feel like a bit of an idiot now.
Kerrrist, you don’t need to buy a special powder for oat milk. You need a food processor, water and rolled oats.
Grind 1 cup dry oats in the food processor as fine as you can. Put in a bowl/jug/whatever with 1 tsp salt and 3 cups cold water OR to cover and then about 5 cm over the top. Stir. Put in fridge overnight. Stir again and sieve through muslin into a jug, pressing firmly to extract as much juice as possible. Hey presto oat milk. Stir briskly before using.
If the oatmeal swells more than the water you put in, add l-2 more cups of water and stir briskly and leave for an hour to soak. You can get at least 2 soaks out of a cup of ground up rolled oats if you are feeling frugal, but one is better.
The drained oats make quite a nice breakfast cereal with fruit, yoghurt etc. and can be used up in make your own bread. I have used them to crumb fish. They will keep for 1-2 days in the fridge in moist condition. After than toss them or feed them to the dog. Unless you will use them to make uisghe of course, in which case you’ll need to add a lot more water - refer @taleya.
40/50

Thought I do better today.
A humble 15/50 for me this time.
25/50, missed a couple of easies.
30/50, footy and poker games are not my forté lol
I’ll take the kids on a other ride with the bicycle users group today if everything works out.
We went on one a few months ago and haven’t made it since from a mix of the weather, being sick, and other plans.
They’re a good group so I don’t want to be one and done with them
I’ve just caught up on the Australian breakdancer. It’s so very bad. The sprinkler and the play school kangaroo hop moves were great, but the sprayed roach was glorious. I watched on repeat laughing. 5 stars.
I was overwhelmed by cringe and couldn’t watch the whole thing.
so 5 hoppits
Where do I see this? I don’t watch the Olympicals or any other sport, usually seems like a boring waste of time. But I’m feeling left out now
Almost as good as an Elaine Bennett dance.
On my street, the massed chorus of lawnmowers, whippersnippers and blowers has just started up. Right now it’s fairly minor, but I predict it will reach a crescendo later on today.
I just came to post this, hit 11:30am and suddenly the chorus of lawn mowers and gardening equipment began!
Wow that’s dedication on a cold Sunday morning
I suspect there are bbqs planned.
Anyone involved in support groups for chronic illness /pain? I have zero support group but feel validated seeing posts on instagram that mirror my experience.
Still got a lot of stuff piled around in boxes and was too tired to tackle it last weekend, so I will resist the lure of the beach and work on it today.
Nah, that’s a wet weather activity
Don’t tempt me, Frodo!
The daystar callses, precious
The Seine is the river that keeps on giving. Warning don’t read this if you’re eating your breakfast.
So generous. It’s the olympics souvenir of french gastro microbes you get to take home and keep for several days to weeks after the games.
If you’ve never had horse before, you have now.
It’s just bizarre to me, who/whom decides what is acceptable risk?
I don’t know. I hope it’s scientific based and not some bureaucrats with a glass going “looks clear enough. Who wants first taste?”.
Anyway Shazza from the Netherlands says it’s ok.
😂
It’s like holding swimming races in the Yarra and expecting the swimmers flesh not to slough away from the pollution 😂 but way worse with all the ancient sewage lines flowing into the Seine, the catacombs, illegal dumping by companies etc. 🤢🤢
Oui oui!
Australia is so beautiful, the colours are just incredible. ISS film footage from July. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojbBLENz15s
That’s incredible. I expected a myriad of space junk.
I confess: I was up all night playing contraband police (I was stuck on a level and it was annoying me), playing some missionchief, and messing around with JavaScript and python.
I don’t understand JavaScript and evidently chatgpt doesn’t either, because my attempt at modifying a chrome extension didn’t quite work. But I used it to create a python script to take a few dozen JSON files from a web scraper, de-duplicate them, and output it to a CSV file, which can then be imported to google sheets and bulk archived onto the Wayback machine
I’ve always read JSON as Jason in my head. Now that I found out what it stands for, it could still be JaSON.
Stayed in bed for an alarming amount of time today watching Fast Forward and Full Frontal clips after someone on the other site mentioned that the infamous breakdancing reminded them of Jane Turner doing gymnastics as Berylina Stumpy…
Why do I sabotage myself like this! Spent a very large part of a very fine day in bed, when I actually HAD energy to do other things if I’d just put away the phone. Could’ve indulged in videos at night instead. Now I am behind on stuff for next week. At least I got a brisk 30min walk in rather than sitting in negativity.
I watch tv in the mornings and then do work and activities until bed time. Morning is my time. :)
I did the same, but on the couch. Watched some tv but was mostly on my phone (and I looked at that clip too!). It does feel like I’ve wasted the day but was feeling pretty blah earlier, so maybe needed some downtime. Good on you for getting a walk in - I reckon half the battle is just getting out of the house sometimes.
