Anti-gratitude thread.

Only slept around five hours last night and I can't be stuffed meal prepping. But I shall persevere.

When cafes are selling bowls of soup for 17 dollars and bowls of porridge for 19 dollars that's when you know the country has lost the plot.

Might as well be living in Argentina with this kind of inflation.

I broke a drill bit in some wood and spent 20mins trying to get it out :(

SIL is trying to drive a wedge through the family and I'm being blamed (this is a story for another day).

Is this same SIL that gave you such hassles over the wedding?????

[โ€“] Bottom_racer@aussie.zone 9 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It is.

Absolute shit show.

I will have a rant about this shortly :)

Looking forward to it. Could use some new adjectives.

Woolies delivery went to my neighbours by mistake, even though both of us have house numbers clearly visible. Then it turns out they forgot several items and crushed the baguette things Miniest wanted for school. These "partner driverx deliveries so hit and miss.

Not ungrateful, just dreading:

Tomorrow is the start of another week. I only have a couple of things planned tomorrow, but I think it's going to be a busy week trying to deal with my org and begin to get some things replaced. I should probably also go down to the police station and see if they'll let me know what the go is and if I can safely start moving things around and throwing out/having repaired the broken stuff

This weather. No thank you. Return to sender.
