    Vet just called - as before, nothing detected in the external examination and nothing in the blood tests. They’re going to x-ray her and if nothing shows up on that, organise an ultrasound. Also they’ll give her fluids and an anti nausea injection since she has been vomiting on and off since Thursday.

    I want to know why my very top lemon, at least 2.something metres up was eaten by something (guessing a rat) and they ignored the many lower ones. Is it sport? showing off? Big respect but that would not have been easy.

    Any improvement Sammi had was minimal, so I phoned the vet and they’ve admitted her for observation and further tests (including hopefully an abdominal ultrasound).
    Cross fingers for us.

    Despite being directly the in projected storm path, we were spared the brunt of it.

    Wind and rain for about 15 minutes and then some small hail.

    Overall, not the worst we’ve had.

    I’m having an unbelievably hard time of life. I’m just not getting a break.

    Melbcat is feeling more comfortable with adequate pain relief though, ate some wet food and is cuddling. I’m waiting for Tuesday and counting down to receiving the antibiotics

    NASA has decided to get the astronauts who went up on a crippled Boeing star liner to return on a space X next year. in short: they dont trust the spacecraft for human flight. You cant write fiction funnier than this.

    One thing I’m really quite good at is packing to go on a trip really quickly. I’ve got like 3 laptops, an ipad, a 27" monitor, a media streamer, PS5 controller and all manner of cables, my clothes and my CPAP machine all fitting snuggly into my trusty suitcase. Then I have my backpack of stuff and a tote with foodstuffs and my blender. All took maybe 30-40 minutes and there was a shower in there too.

    I was surprised by the Wattle Festival and just the sheer size of it yesterday. We only did part of the main street of Hurstbridge and we hardly got to the whole thing.

    Payday today!! I’m trying to get the enthusiasm levels up like all you Wednesday pay people from last week, but when you have a strict budget it’s all divided up and spent before you get it anyway.

    It is nice seeing the car money creeping higher though - I’ve gone from “could buy another car the same as mine if I crash it” level to being able to get something that’s a bit nicer. Slowly moving towards the point I can buy a car I would actually choose to buy without being forced by the death of my current one.

    works gone to complete and utter shit. We’re being forced into this project that we all know is gonna end in a complete dumpster fire, but we (as in everyone in my department, managers included) cant do anything to stop it. Gonna chat to my boss and just say “look I cant reconcile this shit, you want it done? Fine, but I dont want to talk about it for a second more than we have to”. The greater department has this habit of turning their meetings into therapy/bitching sessions and I’m just not here for it.

    Till this Project Doom is completed we’re sticking to facts any talking about it as little as possible.

    thats fair enough isnt it? Honestly sat in the meeting where it was announced on seek, and I dont reckon I was alone in that.
