    So far today:

    • Moved 1.73 shittonnes of crap out of the garage for the hard rubbish.
    • Cleaned house.
    • Repotted the mini peach tree, the ginger lily and the bonsai fig treelet.
    • Two loads of laundry.

    Still to do:

    • shopping
    • batch cooking lunches for next week.

    I’m exhausted already. May resort to bort lunches.

    This is why I can’t use the duster anymore.

    Also I downloaded the full seasons of Ninja Turtles and Transformers from the 90’s. So much nostalgia!

    I have photographic evidence of possibly the exact moment when my brain flipped from being interested in ninja turtles to being interested in ladies.

    This is me and a 24 or 25 (I think) year old Kylie Minogue at my dad’s work xmas party one year. Judging by my style/pudgy face I’m going to say it was around 1993 or 1994. I hadn’t seen this photo in decades but my mum sent it to me over the weekend.

      The thing is, I can’t quite tell whether you’re looking at Kylie, or into the distance at some kind of airborne bandanna’d turtle…

      My god, look at her. Imagine meeting her in person. I remember the Spinning Around music video came on Rage one time and I understood the appeal then.

    First time making cauliflower “wings”, a bit time consuming and a fair bit of mucking about, but came out really nice especially after dunking them in the sauce - made with my lovely homemade hot sauce - and then doing another 5 minutes in the air fryer.

    Unfortunately the green manzano peppers I used for tonight’s arroz verde ended up spicy as well (Russian roulette with those things), so everything’s clearing out my sinuses.

    Discovered a bottle of mead in the fridge from goodness knows how long ago and poured myself a rare little tipple with soda water to wash down the spaaaaaice 🥵 🌶

    I’m feeling incredibly low. The weather doesn’t help but life is a struggle for a lot of genuine reasons.

    Went to Panton Hill Winery today and it was like going to regional Italy.

    I’d also say it was like going back in time, but from what I’ve heard regional Italy is already like going back in time.

    Has anyone tried these coffee bag things? Someone at work recommended them. I used to be able to drink instant till my stomach went “yeah, nah!” So was thinking about giving it a go.

      Are they the ones you sometimes get in hotels? I thought they were basically instant coffee. Ok in a pinch but not my thing.

    Here’s hoping my weather app has bugged and that it’s not actually going to be absolute zero on Friday!

      This is a fiendish plan by (insert name here) to kill off the homeless by freezing them to death before they bring property values down.

        That’d freeze everyone to death, homes or not. You might be able to survive that if you had access to something with amazing insulation like a walk in freezer, but no guarantee you’d be able to open the door to leave it when the mother of all cold snaps was done.

        That’s an extinction level cold.

    Right. I’ve setup a trial Entra tenancy to practice on. I’ve got my server 2016 VM setup ready to practice a faux migration. I’ve got a couple of old PC’s to enrol in server instead of using VM’s which should help make things easier.

    English: My IT test lab is up and running lol

    A lot to learn!

      Do you have proxmox? if not, worth a play to familiarise yourself now that a certain company is shitting the bed. You can also practise virtualising some machines.
