I want to go to bed. Been up since 6am-ish. Might have to have a long nap.

it bothers me there was so little recognition of 9/11 tragedy the past few days

it's like under that government the past doesn't exist

Bit ranty, I guess.I've been feeling really odd about stuff like this lately. There is so much happening in the world, so many great things, so many horrific things. I understand the world keeps spinning, but it feels we're so quick to dimiss and move on. And I mean this about wars, games, music, political events, natural disasters. We churn through things so quickly.

yup

spoilerand I think it's done on purpose to keep us from thinking too deeply about things

It's a cult thing, a barrage of facts and half facts that our brain can't keep up with

the only sane thing to do is disengage and then choose what to read and see

Grocery delivery should be arriving in the next hour. Lots of yummy things to pack away, and liver for dinner tonight. Miss Meow and Mr Woof are very excited. OK, they are both completely oblivious and happily napping, but I'm sure they would be excited if they could understand what I was telling them.

There is one substitution made - they didn't have any Coles Simply butter, so I am getting Coles butter instead. I do not understand why these are different products.

Edit: I worked it out, the Coles butter is Australian, the Coles Simply butter is of unspecified origin.

I think I'll finally take the trailer pram in to get fixed. With the boys getting older their sleep window is getting shorter to duck out and do things. sometimes they don't sleep at all

Also hopefully I can take Gibsons cone off because I think sheโ€™s desperate to groom herself :(

Edit: It stays on a while longer sadly :( few more days and it should be ok!

If life has taught me anything, it's that the cone of shame never comes off
