My hands are fucking rekt after two hours of finely hand chopping kale and my lower back and knees which were already acting up are not happy today with all the bending and lifting and standing around doing food prep and carrying stuff up and down those crazy outdoor steps. My aunt was very overambitious with how much food she wanted to make today, I noped out of going along with them to deliver because it was so chaotic near the end, and I am ZONKED and need energy for tomorrow to start the real culling/packing now that I have the Good Boxes and Tape courtesy of my lovely colleague.

But it was really good to spend a whole day using my hands and doing good stuff for others, with others!

Aunt might drop by with leftovers in the arvo which I can't complain about :) now it's time for dins, Nurofen and a good restorative sleep...
