Personally I love anti-vaxxers that get monthly botox injections.

I know one in particular, it's sad funny.

Mystery pakidge... details went to my work email, but had attempted delivery at home... very strange. Waiting for it to land at the post office so I can collect. Also waiting on delivery of new keyboard which will make life easier as this one is playing some wonderful tricks while dying.

Electric blankets are like $30 at Kmart and so worth it. There are also heated throws if you want it on a chair but theyโ€™re less warm.

Warning: There is a risk of having the heat source commandeered by furry overlords

[โ€“] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 5 points 4 days ago

heated throws are SO worth it!

TW pain, periodsPhysical pain is taking over my life. Iโ€™m spending nearly every day running out the hot water in the shower to the point of mildly scalding myself and stacking paracetamol with ibuprofen just to try and get some relief.

Iโ€™m starting to strongly suspect endometriosis or adenomyosis on top of everything else because Iโ€™m in agony weeks before my period even starts. Also two of my sisters are diagnosed now

today I feel like making a huge cake, two tiers, a madiera recipe soaked with kirsch, with grand marnier cream and fresh raspberries

[โ€“] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That sounds incredible! So we'll all meeting up for cake on the beach later?!

I was so tired I fell asleep attached to a TENS machine with a horror movie playing. ๐Ÿ˜‘ So thatโ€™s how life is going.

The stuff is here. Iโ€™m going to see if I have the energy to split up and rewrap the pack of soap (just so one person doesnโ€™t get 8 bars and everyone else gets none). The tp is the thin rough Delsey but itโ€™s the easiest least suss way to distribute individual rolls.

The fabric pieces of this doll got wrinkled so I have to iron them again before sewing. Note to self - 100% cotton fabric wrinkles super easily and is not a forgiving choice.

hugs, you're a kind person.
