I’m just sitting here watching Netflix. @Snowie. Try to follow along. It’s an arduous task right now.
Are you up to anything?

Just watching Netflix too @Captain24
Need to stay up tonight, have to pick S up from work.
Have you got much on tomorrow?

What are you watching? @Snowie
Is hubby home?
Im working tomorrow night so I’ll have to find something to do in the morning and then have a nap tomorrow afternoon.
What plans do you have for the next few days?

Watching a movie called Carry On @Captain24
It's ok, not great but have seen worse.
Hubby out with some friends tonight. Just me and the dog.
Haven't got much on the next few days. Was going to do a trip to Bunnings to get some plants. See if I can keep them alive!
Hoping work goes ok. How many days are you on for?

Are you ok in your own? @Snowie
You’re getting into the gardening thing. I hope you can get there. Just chilling for a few days after yesterday sounds good.
What time does S finish.
I work tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday nights. Then I don’t go back to work until Friday.

Not really ok but safe. How are you going now?
Not sure if I'm getting into gardening @Captain24 Just replacing some plants I k*lled!!
I did plant two new ones the other day and have been watering them so thats a good start.
S doesn't finish till 10:30pm. At least I can sleep in tomorrow. Well hopefully I can.
At least you have got some time off after Sunday hon.

I’m sitting here wishing I wasnt @Snowie
I can’t keep plants alive either. My weeds are so bad. I’m going to contact a kid on Facebook that’s doing really well. He is 16 and working really hard.
I water them for a few days then forget!
Je is nearly finished and you can go to bed soon. I hope you are able to sleep.
Yeah more days off. I’m lucky I get a few days break between blocks. It’s been getting really hard to go to work. I just have to count down the blocks until I go on holidays.

26-12-2024 09:48 PM
Well we can sit here together @Captain24
Oh I have plenty of weeds too. They seem to grow fine!! Maybe the kid can come and help you get rid of some of the weeds.
I forget to water them also after awhile. Luckily my grass has sprinklers on a timer so they get some water.
Hopefully I can sleep. My meds do normally help.
Have you got anything planned for when you go on holidays? Or is that still awhile of?

I’m sorry you feel the same. @Snowie. I don’t know how long I can do it.
He charges $25 an hour it’ll take him a couple though. It saves me from doing it and I’m helping a kid on his way forward.
My grass only gets watered when it rains! We need some rain as it’s going brown.
It’s in February and I’m just going to the coast with my parents. The same as always. Nothing exciting. I’m hoping to enjoy it better this time.

Well I'm not giving up on you @Captain24 💗
$25 an hour is a good rate. Wishing he was around my area too.
Sometimes just a change of scenery helps. Hopefully it does go better for you this time.
Will say goodnight hon. Have to drive into town to pick S up.
I hope you are able to get some sleep tonight.
Will talk again soon.
