Memories - 26th April

Last year — 2023

Lowest temperature was 12.2°C at 07:04, highest was 23.1°C at 15:02.

  • I ordered some espresso machine goodies from Etsy at the start of this month, a dosing funnel for the portafilter and a WDT tool (https://www.baristahustle.com/blog/weiss-distribution-technique/). They arrived today and are very handsome, looking forward to seeing the difference with my coffee tomorrow!

    Beanie's last dose of chemo was two months ago and he's having a break from it at the moment. We took him in today for a check-up (not a full CT scan) and they poked and prodded and did a blood test, and it seems like the tumour is the same as last time as far as they could tell, which is great. The blood test came back perfect, and they said the only thing was that he'd lost just a bit of weight so we're going to bump his food amount up slightly. We're giving it another two months and he'll get another full CT scan and hopefully it's good news. 🤞🏻

    Relaxing!

    On Sunday afternoon/night we went up to Dreamwood International, which is a very fancy name for a little B&B about an hour’s drive away from us. It was so nice, though. The owners were really friendly, the place was absolutely spotless, and when we got there they had freshly-baked scones with fresh cream and home-made jam waiting for us!

    They breed border collies, golden retrievers, and alpacas. We got to play with the border collies, and went for a walk with the owners as they were feeding the alpacas on Sunday night. They are such ridiculous-looking animals! kungfupolarbear got a few really good shots of them. My photos were mostly of the border collies.

    We timed it very nicely, too… on Sunday the weather was nice and sunny, but yesterday when we woke up it was all wet and dreary. All in all it was a really nice and and relaxing weekend. We’ve had a five day weekend due to Easter Friday and Monday, and Anzac Day falling on the Monday as well (Anzac Day is a public holiday too, so the public holiday from Easter Monday got pushed over to Tuesday). \o/

  • Ok, this is getting ridiculous. 😉 We had the quarterly AppleCare Excellence Awards this afternoon... I now have: 2x 1GB 1G shuffles, 2x 1GB 2G shuffles, 1x 2GB 2G nano, 1x 4GB 1G mini, 1x 4GB 1G nano, 1x 40GB 3G, and 1x 80GB 5G. Of those, I’ve gotten all of the shuffles (both 1 and 2G ones), the 2G nano, and the 1G mini from work. 😀

    w00tage. I’m getting these mags for my Corolla. 🙂 Well…one of the two. I haven’t quite decided which yet. I need to save up some more money first anyway.
