    Gardening sesh complete. Green bin full!

    I have a sore finger from pressing the aerogard button so much lol. 300g went a long way though so might be cheaper than I thought.

    Interesting thing from pulling the oxalis that I sprayed Monday evening is a lot of the bulbs came up with it so that was a surprise. Almost like they were stuck on more but might be imagining things.

    Now it’s a pizza time.

      Not to dampen your fiery spirits, but I’m guessing you know about how oxalis have the secret little bulbils that snap off and stay in the soil after you pull out the main bulb…? and sometimes there can be bulbs up to 20cm below the surface… I used to be so annoyed at how I thought I’d gotten rid of the bulbs only for them all to come back again… but to be fair I wasn’t treating them with the angel of death.

        I just picked the weeds as best I could. I might not have killed it, there will be bulbs but it’s now very very sick. I’ll remove the weeds again when they show up.

    Really really good final Medicare-subsidised session with psych today - lifted a lot of the irritation and frustration I’ve been feeling over the last two weeks just getting some things off my chest and talking about the importance of my trip away to someone who knows why.

    Riding on the wave of goodness I decided to actually read my emails rather than just mark them all as read and what do you know, it’s National Tree Day on Sunday and there’s heaps of planting events all over town. The weather might be frightful but I think that’s exactly what I need, getting out in nature, working with my hands alongside others for something good. The hot shower afterwards will feel very earned 😁 that’s my Sunday sorted!

    I have no idea if my mum is doing it or if a bad actor is doing it, but I keep getting emails from Apple support addressed to my mum to saying

    "We have reviewed your request, and access to your account (my email @gmail.com) has been denied.

    Sincerely,

    Apple"

    It looks legit, the email it’s from looks legit, and I suspect it’s because a long time ago I’d helped my mum set up her phone and she didn’t have an email at the time. But I don’t know how to give it back to her or whatever, there’s nothing actionable in the email, and it’s giving me a stress headache looking at emails addressed to mum. It’s making me feel really anxious, that to resolve this I might have to break my no-contact.

    Fuuuuuuuck

      If this is distressing you think about using a new account for yourself, transferring email to the new one and deleting the old email account

      yes, I know it’s a pain but it might be the easiest way

      and it will cut the link to you

    Things are hard right now. There’s crappy stuff going on I probably won’t post but I also recently found out an old family friend has passed.

    Life is incredibly heavy so other than pressing chores and cuddling/tending to Melbcat I’m mostly sleeping life away.

    Edit: Melbcat is fine to my knowledge, I haven’t heard back about her nose but she’s acting okay and pretty much healthy. May she remain so. It’s just everything else.
