    P’s dropped in from their travels to Noosa and gave me 3 t-shirts.

    They all say “I LOVE Noosa”

    I’ve never been (or intend to go) to noosa.

        Noosa seems like an odd place for a Victorian to go as a sole destination, too. I know nothing of it, so maybe it’s actually really nice and a common tourist desto or something. But just poking around on the maps, the only reason I can come up for someone to go there is they wanted to go to the sunshine coast but either got lost on the way there, or more likely wanted to be unique and quirky so they drove 10 minutes down the road to Noosa insteax

          It’s fairly touristy. Even RACV has a resort there. I was there a few weeks ago but it was just to visit and stayed on the Sunshine Coast.

          If you hire a 4wd you can beach drive from Noosa to Rainbow Beach which is pretty cool.

    I counted 7 frying pans. 2 cast iron (1 flat, 1 griddle) 1 steel/aluminium (Idfk), 1 small for toasting nuts, 2 that go in the oven with a lids (1 large, 1 small) and one I use all the time. Plus a wok. I need to make decisions but maybe not today.

    Got a phishing message impersonating auspost coming from the democratic republic of the Congo

    Found it funny because when something that seems like it should be Australian wasn’t, my mum would always say something like “what do you mean the milk is only 93% Australian? Where’s the rest of it coming from? The bloody Congo?”

    I also had one come from Yemen a few weeks ago. That was a funny one.

    Anywho I cracked into my study today. I’ve got the knowledge to complete my first assessment now, I’m about 75% done, probably got about an hour left on it. I don’t know about the others because I haven’t started them yet, but I’ve got another 3 weeks to do those. Although we start on the next unit tomorrow, so I don’t want to get left behind. They look to be longer than the first one, and one of them is a case study, the other a research report. So the one I’m working on now is probably the easiest of the lot (just basic written questions)

    Here I am StudSpud the Starchy
    The poetic potato aficionado
    But in real life I’m actually partly
    Just your average f5 tornado

    I don’t look like an actual potato
    I’m not a hot-as-fuck stud
    I’m just a long dormant volcano
    And now I’m certainly not a chud

    My legs are shot. 25kms isn’t a super long ride, but you feel it when you’re towing 2 kids and the last stretch is up hill

      My daughter one day “Daddy, why have we slowed down?”. And here’s my poor husband sweating bullets and pedalling as hard as he could while crossing the western highway on an overpass.

    I’m about to make a toastie, but don’t know what I want in it.

    Cheese and salami, or peanut butter and banana?

    I’m so frustrated about my health and living situation. I was never hugely sporty but did like to be somewhat active like walking and tai chi and would love the energy/chance to garden. I’d love to be exercising and prepping good meals.

    Even just getting away from the toxic elements of where I live would be amazing.
