Hatching started yesterday or so! Spotted these two, saw a third later, J says there’s more. At least 3/24. Not our best hatch rate but the two broodies went off brooding for a day after receiving the eggs and then apparently only half of them got sat on x_x

I loved the cover of the new notebook I had bought for coaching purposes so much that I got J to get me the A5 version for my bag while he was in the vicinity of Officeworks.

I wish I could humblebrag about how I’m so dedicated and conscientious and whatever but the reality is if I don’t do this (recording how my kids are progressing with their drills and strength/flexibility) I won’t remember where everyone is up to and be able to plan the next sessions accordingly x_x At least it’s fun.

Chilling very comfortably while waiting for someone

First of who knows how many times I will post to snaps first as I haven’t set up updating hugo from my phone and it currently looks like a monumental pain. I did also want to test what if anything snapie did with metadata and it’s zeroing gps and leaving everything else intact which is probably useful for photography. I’m going to assume it does the same for camera shots (as I tested upload from gallery first).

Had to order online from Officeworks to make sure that I only got what I needed because that place is dangerous and I don’t have spare money. I am still not quite ready for term and it’s already started x_x

It’s been about an aeon or so since I last did a garden journal (last one tagged any thing to do with the garden was bundled in with a homeschooling post from 2013 as the kids helped J plant some stuff during an unexpected communication outage). Quite a bit has changed since then.

First and only very vaguely related because it’s out there, J finally got me a new clothes hoist (the old one is collapsible and the catch to hold it open broke some years back but we were able to make do and it has been collapsing a LOT more frequently recently especially when there was a lot on it). Youngest brought the concrete bags in and had the old one dug out in about ten seconds (only a slight exaggeration), after which he and J erected the new post and left it overnight for the concrete to dry. The following day J got Eldest and I to help put the top on (I didn’t do much) and then he strung it.

Looking more like trackies at the moment but the base shape is done. Need to finish the collar and adjust the overlap and do some buttons and maybe pockets and things.

My neck was being annoying so I got even less done than usual. And I’m not really sure how the flow on the front is going to work out.

Have not done one of these in forever, comment sketchy inspired by this part of a conversation with @tarazkp.

ryivhnn: I’ve been scrubbing through Snaps recently and not understanding the appeal of doomscrolling.
tarazkp: Yeah - who wants to wade through a rubbish bin in the hope of finding a fresh apple?

ryivhnn: Me I guess XD Perhaps because of the relatively low volume it’s currently pretty quick and easy to find decent interaction hooks. I just…really don’t know how to micro.
