I think I saw a wattlebird today.

The bin for compost arrived today but the rotary tool to drill holes isn’t here yet. I wonder if I might not be biting off more than I can chew in terms of physical work. Ugh. I would much rather stay in bed with furbaby.

Also look out - Melbcat has been tasting tiny pieces of Marie biscuit and is actually eating them. Next she’ll be sipping my tea!

I’m ready to leave work.

Hiding at the moment so I can leave a few mins early.

Introducing way too many people in the office to the good ol’ chocolate spider. The Kiwi and the South African I’ll excuse, but there’s a fair few Aussies that have never had one! 😲 Classic kids party staple!

It seems BoobToob still has a few hidden gems that haven’t been taken down. Watching them fast in case they get noticed

Today's google doodle is a fun little moon phase game! It's quite cute.

Please to report my QCs did not die. Worked out it was probably the cable, after being able to get some sound through with jiggling it. $7 replacement cable arrived today and we're back to regularly scheduled programming. 😎

QCs are the best. Mine are sanity-saving in an open plan office
