    My landlord has approved my garden request, with a 2m height restriction on permanent plants. Sadly that rules out the 3m dwarf flowering gum I was contemplating, but otherwise fits my plans perfectly. Now I can start making some more detailed plans and get to work digging.

      Oh that’s awesome. Having say over your garden is so important

        I also like the idea of being able to leave a nice garden as a legacy of my time here. There are so many awful gardens around here, with fake grass and lots of stones, or just weeds. Being a new estate there is not many established plants, so being able to plant some natives that will support birds will hopefully provide some habitat for a long time. Plus a couple of citrus trees and herbs will help to support people long into the future too.

    After seeing that Simon Patterson got terribly sick after eating his ex-wife’s food to the point where he got put in a coma and required life-saving surgery, I have no doubt in my mind that she is guilty as fuck.

    That doctor who suggested to him to not tell many people about it makes me mad. I would’ve been encouraging him to file a police report with that spreadsheet he kept of food he ate.

      Tracking food in a spreadsheet because you’re worried about being poisoned is fuckn’ wild.

      Don’t want to be that guy but at that point the dude should’ve learned how to cook for himself lol.

      I agree, and that footage of her stone cold lying to the police! His family might’ve been saved if he’d told them sooner. Also the search history of lethal dose of substances.

      All of the extra info that’s come out is absolutely wild. Simon’s Dr calling the ER to say it was likely poisoning is something you wouldn’t believe in a movie.

        yeah. she kept on trying, she would have seen him suffer, seen the consequences, and she kept on trying, that’s evil

        she is so lucky we don’t have the death penalty

          I wanted to believe she was just dumb and panicked or had a good reason to do it (ie. desperation)

          No

          Just evil.

            I wondered if she was just a stupid liar

            because evil like that is thankfully pretty rare

    Melbcat is full of lambies and relaxing in front of the heater 🥰 This is so good. She eats all of this food so takes her meds in it without a fight and I really hope her blood values improve or stay the same on it.

    Thinking I can sell some of my unwanted stuff and do a bulk order

    My heart rate has not dropped below 85 since being on these meds. It was 90 whilst I was asleep which was to be expected, but a bit scary. I haven’t tried the clonidine yet so maybe I shall tonight. I guess I’ll just have to taper off it if things go south.

      Mine sits at around 80-85 and I do a fair bit of physical activity.

      Defs feels weird at the beginning. Clonidine will bring it back down.

      is this expected? If it is and your doctor thinks it’s ok don’t worry about it

      and stop looking at your monitor, it’s not helping

    On a bit of a buzz today! Managed 4 hours in a row which is awesome.

    Gym, food shopping, tidy up the studio then it’s music and games for the rest of the day.

    Plus naps.

    Always naps.
