    Back from the community breakfast. It was a pretty good time, they had a small accoustic band and…

    I still like fire trucks!

    The little hall where the event was held.

    Cricket anyone?

    Giant pencils along the path into the primary school next door.

    The food tent. There was yabby Mornay, lamburgers, sausages, bacon and eggs. Delicious! The Minipeelers and I helped cut up all the bread rolls. It was good fun and I wore a mask so my weeping face didn’t scare any small children.

    No sleep gang checking in. Woke up abruptly, jerkily turned over, hurt back in the process. Did not know ‘injured back due to nightmare’ was on the list of random injuries that can happen when you get old list. Well anyway, guess I‘ve ticked #10348 off the list.

    I started off the day with a lovely Sunday sleep in. Unfortunately I was supposed to be at work, so I followed up with a bit of a rush and a late mark. Why do these things only happen to me on high penalty shifts?

    Ugh I hate this fucking apartment, it’s such perfect Goldilocks weather out there, beautiful cool air and Sun not too hot, meanwhile it’s a solid 5-7C hotter in this horrid old dogbox with zero cross ventilation. Can’t even open the windows until 8pm when the sun isn’t beating down on the hellish west facing bedroom windows where most of the heat is coming in.

    It’s also been a day for minor bombshell events in the family: mum wants to move back to the ancestral country a lot sooner than expected, with all the huge discussions that comes with it…

    …and a young niece’s sudden coldness to her beloved aunt and uncle (almost like a foster family to her) turns out to be mainly because she found out said uncle’s tiktok account follows almost exclusively onlyfans producers. I feel very conflicted about the second one, I really would like niece and her aunt to rebuild their relationship (niece is quite vulnerable due to parent’s ugly divorce but also kind of sheltered). But also it’s not my business to get involved in other people’s marriages. Though if that aunt - i.e., my cousin - found out later and knew I was aware but didn’t tell her, she’d be livid. Ehhhh iunno. I’ve had a cider and some chips and I’m kind of done for the day now

        I love the smell of cedar wood. When I see the flag, I can smell it.

          I always think of how the doors of the ancient temples of Pharaonic Egypt were lined with cedar and how cedar was used in many other ways too. They are truly the trees of the gods.

          Very nice! I’ve been meaning to check out the fancy bar there, and also go on the ghost tour

            The wine bar there is fun, and the booths are great. The seated separate restaurant though was very meh food wise, over priced and poor service.

            Didn’t know about the ghost tour though doh!
