Two members of my household tested positive for COVID today and I have symptoms but tested negative. Time to sit and watch some movies for the rest of the week maybe.

Movie recommendations please!

If you enjoy action thrillers, try Predestination with Ethan Hawk.

said it before and I'm sure I will say it again: Boys highschool sex ed should be bringing in a new dad whos got a kid in daycare and ask them "how many times you been sick this year?". You'd scare the crap out of them.

Giving them a toddler to care for for a day would also work

1 toddler per teenager, that is

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

thats the issue though. When they are cute (which lets be honest, is a LOT of the time) youd fall in love.

So the good thing about discovering i needed to raise the ground level of the food garden area is that when i'm digging out the pathway alongside and leading up to it i can just hurl the shovelfulls about three feet. And I don't have to sift and weed overmuch (apart from the most egregious) since it's all going under geo anyway. Much time save, me likey

MOVIES!! I love movies.

Austin Powers International Man of Mystery commentary. Was not enlightening other than finding out Mindy Sterling is a total comedic genius who made her own character and ad libbed her lines.

Passengers. Still a very beautiful movie in every way.

I hate ordering stuff online, I think I get anxiety over waiting for things to get shipped and if it's in stock and then for it to arrive.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

I love ordering stuff online. I get to spend my time, compare lots of different things easily, and can focus on the most important aspects (like measurements or technical specifications). I tend to put it out of my mind once I've ordered it, and instead of getting anxious waiting it's more like a happy surprise when it turns up!

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 6 hours ago

I kind of feel like that, but also get anxious. I can't visualise anything, and although I know how long a centimetre/metre are, I can visualise how big 1.37 metres is in my space without a tape measure (which only kinda helps), so I hate purchasing size based things online. For general things, I do prefer online though. But expensive things give me buyer's remorse, I guess cause of the lack of instant gratification

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago

I'm more worried about stuff being out of stock by the time it comes to ship and then waiting for it and not knowing where exactly they're going to deliver the item to.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I'm the same because I don't like surprises unless you say you have a surprise and show me immediately.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago

Exactly, it's like teasing me with something but I must have it now!

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

I hate the days after not sleeping well. I'm so...bleh

I've just signed myself up for a couple of days of gardening at my Mum's place. The good part of this is that I get to go wild plant shopping - I need a bunch of hardy sun-loving plants to go in a border and a couple of planter boxes. I'm thinking mostly natives, but will have to see what I can find.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

If you venture down southeast: garden world and diacos.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

At the moment I'm going the quick and cheap option and will just see what is low cost at Bunnings. The plan is to sell the place some time next year so I don't want to put too much into it - mostly I just want to remove a patch of self-seeding cherry tomatoes that have been growing up and getting out of control every summer! If all goes to plan next year we should have a new garden to put some real effort into.
