They're still counting in my electorate. In my ward nobody got more than 50% of the vote so they're still divvying up the preferences.

"I'm not into dressing up much, but I miss the person who used to wear these." Wow, that hit hard. I've got longline leather jacket, silk shirts etc that I used to wear but haven't in years and I can't let them go yet, I feel like I'd be throwing out part of myself. I got rid of all my high heeled boots years back, when motherhood arrived, and I still get upset about it sometimes. Did I really have to? But I was the one mostly left literally holding the baby, high heeled boots aren't sensible at all, and there was so much finger wagging from my in-laws about celebrities in ridiculous heels holding newborns.. Now I'm a fat mumma and a factory worker, not a glamorous or hip person at all. Sometimes I miss who I used to be. I had to give up so much as a mother, and I adore my kids but to be truthful it's sometimes a sore point. I swore I wouldn't be that person and here I am, wearing Millers Woman from the op shop, polishing off cupcakes from Coles because I am sad. Wow, that's pathetic, I didn't realise how bad it'd gotten!

Good to hear that mate!

35 for me this week.

I've got so much shit to do today and I don't want to do any of it. Have started with dishes and laundry. 🥱

🤞🏻 and hugs mate. I'll be thinking of you both today.

Happy birthday! 🎉🎂

I gave my DVD player to my MIL so she could watch the DVDs she borrows from the library. I'm on a 3 month free Amazon prime trial so I thought, why don't we utilise this instead of spending 💰. Thankee for the suggestion though.

That's great news, glad she's in good care.

I missed that post, but I hope she recovers well. It's scary when they get to the stage of having falls.

Decided to have a movie day with the Minipeelers. They wanted to go out and do something, but I didn't because $$. I'm kind of sick of all the free stuff we do, to be honest. It's free money wise but always takes planning, preparation. I've worked a hard week and selfishly just want to relax. So far we watched MIB 2 and Bullet Train. The latter was totally up our alley, we all loved it.
