OK 😁

I just need to erm! ...have a chat with Auntie Pam - She doesn't know yet, and not sure how she'll take her daughter working here! 😳 ...but I'll try reasoning with her tonight ...y'know tell her it will broaden her horizons, improve her inter-personal skills, grow her confidence ...that kinda thing! 😈


Oh, and BTW Minxee's apron suits you - I'm sure she won't mind ...so long as you clean it should you get it 'sticky! 🤣

Want any help with Auntie Pam? I mean extra hands make light work, right?😂:devilish:

I hope @Minxee is doing okay 😟
I'm sure she is Crios ...judging from her posts on her thread 😈

And Anja's taking a sabbatical ...her Step-Bro has returned to work so Anja has her hands full with the little bug! Hopefully she'll pop in! ...and be a 'Yummy mummy' ...or should that be a 'Punky mummy' ....or maybe a Yummy Punky Mummy!' 😊

I never even knew she had her own thread! Glad to see she's doing well.

You have been missing out....



I apologise for being MIA. Let me update in what I've been up to in the last few weeks... (sorry its a long post with lots of pictures)

I have been punished for disappearing and making people worry...

I am also glad that I apparently heal quickly as yesterday I had blisters forming across my hand. I had to empty a ute full of soil before it rained. So that was fun.... But all cleared up today. :)

Things have been crazy busy and my mental health is doing its rollercoaster of moods.
Having bipolar fucken sucks!!! If the mood swings aren't enough there is the fucken manic episodes. I HATE them!!!
For example... the other night at like 11pm it hit me and I get this fucken fixational urge and I cannot eat or sleep or do ANYTHING else until that task that I'm fixated on is done. In this case it was scrubbing the kitchen floor. Now I mop my kitchen floor regularly so it is clean. Hell I mopped it 2 days earlier and I don't really make that much of a mess.... but I had the urge to give it a proper deep clean. I hadn't done that since I moved in so I know it needed doing... which means down on my hands and knees with a scrubbing brush.... The top part is before... the bottom is after... It took many many MANY hours to do but it looks better.... I will need to do round 2 at some stage...

View attachment 2175424

I still have walls and doors and windows and everything else to still clean. The house hasn't had a deep clean in over 30 years and the last person who lived here was a smoker so I'm discovering that the walls are not yellow/cream but more of an off white colour... So now I know I need to basically do EVERYWHERE!

Lately I've been working on the outside. Which means lots of digging. I have 6 big trees in my backyard plus some bushes and stuff. 4 of those trees are pine trees... And again 30+ years of neglect so.... had to start clearing. Want to take a guess at which side of the tree has been cleared.... Its a work in progress....

I did come across this little guy... I will admit to using sticks to puppet him.
View attachment 2175441

I also cut down a tree and made an impressive stick pile. See I asked "were should I put the sticks" and they said "in the old wheelbarrow" so I did...
View attachment 2175442

Also began work on the new wood storage for all the firewood and sticks since the old rainwater tank just isn't working anymore. Turns out paving is hard and time consuming. ACTUALLY pulling up the fucken grass and roots is the pain in the ass! Rethinking for when I do my outdoor area bit... BUT the bottom is done now just need to do the sides at some stage.
View attachment 2175444

And I started some seedlings which have REALLY taken off this week... I need to work on getting garden beds for them to go into. OH and I started a worm farm! Not really sure how that's going but they seem to be alive.

Oh and I've been feeding the wild birds. These guys are my favourite and I am sure they have been mating so hopefully there will be some baby ones. But I have attracted about 5 of these to my yard. Plus some rainbow lorikeets and 3 galahs. But these ones are the friendliest and let me walk almost all the way up to them.

View attachment 2175447

Oh and I did a bunch of baking. Bread, banana bread, anzac cookies, choc-chip cookies, caramilk cookies, cupcakes with chocolate icing and a gooey choc-caramel slice.

Right I think we are all caught up now.

You have way too much energy, @Minxee :ROFLMAO:
 
You have way too much energy, @Minxee :ROFLMAO:
Trust me - I do NOT have that much energy. I don't work so I have a lot of spare time on my hands...
Also the update didn't cover all the extra curricular activities I have been getting up to... :devilish: heh and to think a few months ago I was so innocent... how far I have fallen - pretty sure that halo is now down around my ankles... though no complaints... from me or them! :devilish::devilish::devilish:

Oh and FINALLY I can say that someone else on lit has actually tasted my baking. Apparently its very tasty. Maybe if we are lucky I can convince them to come and stop by the shop sometime.... I may do some baking either Sunday or Monday if I can find the energy and have recovered after Saturday nights adventures... If so I will get some pictures of me baking to spoil you all with. 😘

Speaking of no energy... I think its time for sleep :sleep:. I got to be up early tomorrow for doctors. Stupid AM appointment...

@Crios Seems to be doing a wonderful job of making donuts so I am going to leave him to it... and he hasn't burnt down the kitchen unlike some people.... :rolleyes: Maybe tomorrow I will come and claim my kitchen back... unless he is really enjoying it in which case maybe I will move to a different position... I do have many talents and can be used in multiple ways. ;) Need to get my routine back and get into my groove which means jumping ON lit more.
 
MORNING FUCKERS!!!!

@Crios and I decided to team up and make some tasty treats for today. Happy Friday!!!
Thanks, @Minxee !!
You might have to handle the kitchen yourself, for today at least. I'll be getting on the road shortly for a 2 hour trip to babysit the grandkids (although sometimes the parents need more babysitting than the kids;)) and then a return trip later today. 🌷🌼

Wow leaving me all alone... whatever shall I do?!?

*Comes into the kitchen and presses up against Minxees butt and looks over her shoulder at what she's mixing!*
Mmmmmmmmm! ....that feels gooooood! ....erm! I mean LOOKS good! 😈
Good thing I have something.... or someone to keep me company!

*wriggles back against you*
"wanna taste?" 😘

Very nice! But you’ve been ill, haven’t you? I get it.

Got a blister on my foot from walking around at a water park without sandals on. But two days later, it was all gone. Go figure!

Doves are very friendly! Most zoos here in the US have lorikeet feeding encounters. It’s crazy! But I have my personal cockatiel encounter right here at home…seven of our own and five that we are fostering!

My blood sugar just shot up to 450 reading this!

Morning all! I’ve had one very busy weekend and have a feeling I will have a busy week ahead! Oh well, you know what they say - no rest for the wicked! 😈😈😈

For todays snack we have some freshly made banana bread. Still warm from the oven. This baby is gluten free and has no added sugar. I also used low carb oil and it’s lactose free for those with dietary requirements. And it tastes real good as well! So that’s another bonus. I thought with most gluten free stuff it would be dry but this one is nice and moist. (Teehee I said the M word).

EDIT: SOMEHOW..... my fridge and freezer got turned off at the wall? So Tomorrow I am going to have to do a bunch of cooking and stuff to use up the stuff before it goes real bad.... :(

OMG, years ago I thought our fridge died. Couldn’t figure out why. After some investigation, turns out our house built in 1953 didn’t have a separate circuit for the fridge! I traced the circuit throughout the kitchen. Turns out a screw on one of the outlets on the circuit slowly came loose over time (yes, due to electric vibration, it’s a thing!). And the outlet had MELTED! So I spent all day making sure all the outlets on the circuit were wired correctly. Fridge is still on the same circuit 10+ years later. 😞🔥
