If I rang to schedule something on Monday and they said they'd call me back and they haven't, would today be ok to call back? One thing I hate is seeming to be pushy. Is 2 days enough time? It's a busy time of year so I totally understand it.

oyy shaping up at work to be one of those days.
^look, you know more about content than I do but I know more about cinema equipment than you do. I'm not being fucking obstructionist, what the vendor is asking for isn't something they need and it's a fucking red flag. No, don't give them the fucking information regardless you gurning hemorrhoid, sit the FUCK down and let me handle it. You know, like you pay me to^.

Apple Music Replay
No massive surprises on my replay this year. Kinda thought electric callboy was gonna dethrone blink but yeah, no haha.
The male zucchini flowers are wilting and dying alreadyโฆ despite the fact that some female flowers are budding and will soon open. Iโm just hoping that I get a mix at the same time because the longevity on them isnโt looking good.
spoiler
The plants also seem a bit young/small to be flowering and fruiting yet. I saw a neighbourโs plants and who knows they could be full sized pumpkin plants, but the plants and blooms looked bigger. I wonder if Iโm planting all my ish too late. Itโs not like I have full control over that though.
The dishes got soaked in dish soap, bicarb and a kettle of boiling water. Quick scrub then soaked again overnight in dish soap, vinegar and boiling water. I put bicarb down the drains too. Maybe theyโre ready for a hot soapy normal wash and air dry.
I tried to strip the bed but furbaby jumped onto it to save the shared scentsโฆ she then went to eat so the second attempt was successful.
spoiler
When itโs time I keep a clean fitted sheet ready at the end of the bed. When she moves off I unhook the bottom corners, hook the clean ones corners then pull the fresh one up/onto the mattress while rolling the old one up/off in one movement. Itโs fast enough that if I wait til sheโs distracted I have most of it on before she jumps onto the middle and I can just secure the last two corners.
I really need to vacuum sweep and mop but am really low on energy right now. Iโm mainly focusing on laundry
I think you're doing great!! You don't have to do ALL the chores in one day, and soaking the dishes is such a great idea (I might steal that when the executive dysfunction plays up again)!
Vacc and sweep can wait till your spoons have replenished! Such a great job! Seriously! ๐๐๐

Am trying to snap myself out of my visceral distaste for the kitchen, had a bit of time in between work and appt and ducked into my old f & v store to hurriedly buy a bunch of basic veg. I am flat out until Sunday but I can't be spending money on another week of premade meals, gonna start making some basic shit even on Sunday itself if I have to.
I have:
inventory
veg: two carrots, two zucchini, two sticks of celery, two small bunches of asparagus, one leek, one green pepper, one broccoli, and a quarter of a red cabbage. Two big onions and a head of garlic.
For carbs, I have pasta, rice, soba noodles. Maybe some old potat (it might be a bit too old, I'll have to check).
For protein, toor daal, masoor daal, chana dal, moong dal, urad dal, black eyed beans, black lentils. Dried mushrooms. Six eggs. Dried cashews. TVP (chunks and mince).
Have heaps of spices and some dried 'erbs and various sauces and oils.
Time to make like an RPG character/creative uni student and try and craft a few easy one-pot meals out of all the above. Really quite a few options there if I put my mind to it. STILL MOURNING NOT HAVING A DISHWASHER

Melbcat just accidentally almost yanked my earring out. I think she got her claw hooked and just pulled. Woke up to my earlobe being painfully stretched and my sleeper had popped open under pressure - I then had to literally unhook her claw from it.
Itโs a bit sore so perhaps there was a tiny scratch or tear inside the piercing from the earring. Iโve washed it with soap and water and used some Betadine because my earlobe piercings are super prone to getting infected
