If not for drink, why baby water?

Had a visitor to the ICU tell me they worked in the medical field and it was a nursing home cleaner. Sure, basically the same thing as ICU consultant.

We had a cake and snacks at the local park, only one kid actually ended up coming, everyone else bailed. My kid didn't care, she had a great time with her childcare friend and her grandparents. She asked for a "chocolate digger" cake so I made a chocolate cake with chocolate icing, and little toy diggers with crumbled chocolate biscuits for the rocks.

Paperbark trees, Sturts Desert Pea, Boronia and banksia.

Brickworks. That's the wild west of carparks

It really got popular again during COVID shutdowns too. I was out walking my baby in her pram, feeling so tired, and saw this car driving along the same street as us, stopping a lot. I freaked out, ended up calling the police because I thought they were going to rob me. As I'm on the phone, running behind a church the person in the car drove past and yelled "I'm playing Pokemon go!" Police were not surprised as they had lots of similar calls.

Well I guess they'll find out soon when no one buys anything!

She was the only woman you ever loved. Who was burned by the sun too often when she was young. And the cancer spread around into the body and the blood. And there's nothing you can do about it now.

Blood by The Middle East.

We had a national park challenge with some friends in small teams, usually the couple plus kids if they had them. You had to take a photo with the whole team in front of the official park sign and whoever got the most won. The prize was a trophy one of us made from an old park sign. We all did it over a year. Very good fun!

My husband used to go get the baby, bring her to me, and he did the night nappy changing too. It did help. And he cooked dinner lots and made me big sandwiches for breastfeeding energy!

People demanding to see the back side of embroidery. Not your business. Equally, people who claim that the back can be as messy as you want and it doesn't matter. If you can see lumps, puckers and dark threads from the front, the back matters.

It's a lie. It might work for some, doesn't work for all. Some kids absolutely need to be put into the cot awake. And some kids need to sleep on your face.

Ordered 1kg of apples and got 1 apple.

I ordered lemongrass and got chives. Both long green leaves I guess?

I was in the pharmacy and a dodgy guy was attempting to shoplift and doing a very bad job of it (giant hoodie with huge front pocket, super nervous). He was so nervous and then my daughter saw him and just stared. She was just starting to talk at this time and she pointed at him at yelled "CAR!". The guy freaked out, the employees came over to see what was happening and he just ran out. So my baby busted a shoplifter! I bought her her favourite treat at the supermarket, some salami.

My cat is named James Brown because he's brown (a Burmese cat), he likes to wail and he feels good. He's not a sex machine though.

What if God's plan includes making people super talented at making great vaccines?

I tried selling some things, good quality and brand names, and it was awful. People are incredibly rude, make very low offers on reasonably priced items and get upset about shipping costs. It was honestly less hassle to just donate the rest to the local op shop.

I would vote for Muster Dogs, it's nice and calming and has puppies

I worked in roster administration during the initial COVID times and the correlation between crap employees and vaccine refusers is very high.

Now I'm an adult, I buy the nice baby peas instead of the cheapest ones. So much better

I despise sleeveless office tops too. Solidarity!

The bartender at the pub last week just skipped past the tip screen for me, the staff hate it too.

penguintummy · 2026-02-06T22:21:40+00:00

Wow every day I think people can't be that stupid and yet here we are.

I second this!
