Academics can be real a Pain in the A$$

@TAB

Had to deal with them and the admin cronies when I was finding out if I could do the degree or not

[MDT]

Ah sorry to hear that


Well I hope it is hopping about in bunny heaven eating up with all its bunny mates

For some reason bunnies are featuring a lot in my relationship haha
How coincidental !


Yes PEA I am well thanks. Living with my partner these days. It's going fantastically.
We got a heap of vegetables yesterday at the market for a good price. We were so happy haha. Small things like this are great.


Yes these days Hams is chill. Hams used to be worried about work stuff but he figured out that he just needs to write things down and work out a plan. For his own benefit an no one else's. But also not to obsess over work.

Hard to do in our rampant capitalist society.

Right now I'm drinking a coffee and watching the world go by before the days activities. Not on shift today. Shifts are long (13hrs) but I get time off throughout the week. Still count myself lucky given how hard people work for nothing. I could worry about work politics and all that garbage what for though right? Again all indeed to do is come up with the plan.

I'm embracing the absurd nature if pretty much everything I guess haha.

@MDT   Hams that is great!  i am glad you are at peace with the world.  i know exactly what you mean about your wins yesterday with the low cost veggies it is the little wins that give us often the most enjoyment. i bought a scarf the other day which was a quarter of its original price and with the extra discount i had in the store it cost me nothing! made my day :D.  enjoy your coffee.xx

Thank you for your fulsome praise, @Former-Member. I only have my own judgement to rely on usually. It really is a sweet pattern. Not me with the sewing machine. I used to make many of my children's (and my) clothes when they were little, but that was long ago. I haven't even had a machine for decades although I'm thinking of getting one. I don't have the same patience I used to have though. 

[Historylover]

I really did laugh out loud at your humour, @tonys. Shaving was a nice gesture. Thank you. And thank you for your kind thoughts. Same back to you, though less eloquently.

Have a good day.

P.S. Just got a note from Amazon...'Dear Sir'. Also referred to the 'massage'/message. Oh well.

Yes your knitting is really good @Historylover you should be proud of your efforts. I bet your sewing was great too. I used to sew most of my clothes at uni. I have done sewing since but the price of fabrics was a bit prohibitive. Darn Cheap Fabrics has end of reel offcuts which are more affordable. I also used to do Bargain Box which is great for cheap fabrics. I also know Melbourne is a bit of a fabrics hub and there are always people needing to liquidate their reels of fabric. They set up shops without a shingle and just push through reels of material. No patterns or haberdashery in the shop itself just reels of fabric they want to get rid of

My ex-psy took me away from sewing and he was right @Former-Member. He thought I should immerse myself in books which I did, but at the moment I had been enjoying being crafty for a change. I won't get a machine as I haven't missed one in 30 years. A stitch in time... and all that. Besides, I expect I'd soon tire of it like my keyboard. I just don't know what I will do to occupy my time next. Back to books perhaps or...
