Happy New Year! Love you all dearly, this community means so much to me, the knowledge, the kindness, the friends I’ve made here. You have all encouraged me to pursue my dreams in one form or another, and I am eternally grateful to you all for everything you are. Not just for what you mean to me, but for what we mean to each other.
Love you all, and sending you all good vibes for 2025!
💜💜💜
Love this. Stealing it for work group chat tomorrow
Made a fren at the beach last night:
Don’t really see them there. This one was very unsure of me but still curious. Then some dick rode past on a petrol motorbike (which I’ve also never seen before) and it flew away. Pretty sure riding a motorbike on the beach is illegal. Anyway I hope his bike corrodes.
And here’s my main homegurl:
She’s started to worble with cheese (with CaCO3) in her mouth which is very impressive. I always thought they’d have to move their beaks to change pitch and loudness but apparently not. I presume it’s either a ‘thank you’ or ‘that’s right mf what took you so long’.
Me too fluffball. Me too.OMG that is adorable 🥰
The face plant loaf. So furry and gorgeous
My dear son wasn’t interested in staying up till midnight and also wanted someone to sleep with him. I volunteered as tribute. At 10pm.
His bed is not good for my back. He smacked me about in his sleep by accident (I think). I woke up every 2hrs and took ages to return to sleep. Around 3am he mumbled a “sorry” to me. But I think he was dreaming.
And now he is rejecting my pancakes.
I’ve had worse New Years. I’m gonna go eat pancakes.
I’m standing in a field near my house. There were fireworks going off literally in a 360 degree circle around me 🤣
Happy new year everyone!!!
Here’s hoping for a great year for us all ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It’s the only time of year I wish I lived in a rougher area. I don’t have a view of the city, so some illegal fireworks might be nice. Where are all the ferals when you need them.
Someone did illegal fireworks in the last place (yuppy area) at 2:37am on the 6th of January last year. There’s always hope. Scared the shit out of me because I was watching a scary(ish) movie
(It went for a few mins but my phone died)
Good morrow fellow humans. Please partake in some nutrition with me.
That looks very yummy. I have an egg delivery on Friday, I may have to take inspiration from you for a few breakfasts once they arrive.
Yum. I partook in a nutrition but failed to capture it in a photograph. I had 250g mince sauteed with mushroom, zucchini, broccoli with paprika, chilli, cumin and turmeric! Back to one low carb meal a day for me (with reasonable accommodations made for eating out).
Looks lovely. What will you be having?
A selection of par boilt proteins on carbohydrate
Yum yum! What is that?
I see poached eggs but can’t make out the rest.
Pumpkin toast, bacon, chilli jam
Happy new year all! I’m a happy drunk tonight, the best kind.
Bit of a bummer, I know, but I want to spare a thought for the 172+ fire trucks, and probably at least double that in firies, currently still battling the Grampians fire. It’s grown to 76k Ha now
Some absolute fuckwit is letting fireworks off now. At 4am.
Fuck this piece of shit suburb and fuck the people that live here.
6 weeks to go.
Big day today. We got into Carlton early and had second breakfast at Brunetti’s, went for a walk where the boys pressed all the pedestrian crossing lights, then went into the movie.
Plopped the boys down and the new Wallace and Gromit was great. They pretty much sat and watched the whole thing. Anything longer and it would have been a struggle. It’s a direct sequel to The Wrong Trousers so good to refresh on that first if you want to watch it.
Then home and to a friend’s place for early dinner. We did a lot today, but it doesn’t feel exhausting, which is a nice feeling for once
Sounds like you all had a lovely day. 🙂
Sounds like you all had an awesome day!
ee we all made it hny :)
I’m gonna admit my biggest blunder of the year (so far): I’ve been really confused about wtf “hny” stands for. Honey? Took me a solid 8 minutes to work out it’s meant to be happy new year
sorry honey
😂
I thought it was honey as well
An abbreviation of honey for the vowel phobic. If you want to abbreviate “Happy New Year” it needs to be HNY. Or preferably HNY!!🥳🎉🎉, with the number of emojis and exclamation marks increasing depending on the level of drinking you have done.
This is the contented face of a boy who got some salmon for tea.
Besties for life now.
I am pleased to report that my finger has not been hurting as I feared, and the tenderness around the splinter site has mostly gone. Although it is a touch ichy, which is annoying. Especially around the injection points from the local anaesthetic for some reason.
I’ve been adding up all the bills, and my finger cost a total of $340, plus whatever subsidies the govt. gives the priority care clinic (including the tetanus shot they gave me which didn’t have any charge). About 2/3 of that was paid by Medicare, I only paid around $130 out of pocket. Which I would have been happier spending on other things, but in the scheme of things is not too bad.
Happy New Year, may this one be good to all.
