I have a massive crick in my neck and had maybe an hour proper sleep. Today is not going to be fun.

Every sha-la-la-la
Every wo-o-wo-oโฆ.
Havenโt heard that in a while
I am EXHAUSTED! Between some very long work days, a big psych session, lots of uni stuff, long xmas party today and socialising... and tomorrow is another long day of family stuff up in the 'Rat too...
Ready to just hit the bed now. Thank goodness it's cooled down. Last night was hard. Stupid West facing furnace
Can you believe the score @Duenan ๐
TW medical/injections
Iโve now given my first injection. The vet gave the vitamin b and then I did a saline injection to learn. Definitely had some issues with my hands, specifically the strength and fine motor movements of uncapping and changing needlesโฆ need practice ๐ฃ
Now she seems to be somewhat in pain so Iโm fretting a bit. Despite the vets saying that it was ok, it was a very safe spot and they can be a bit sooky after.
A lot is going on lately and Iโm feeling emotionally fragile af. I wish I wasnโt such a sook myself.
Sleep didn't work so I'm on my way to work with roughly 4 hours of sleep. Also, some wise guy broke the Mernda/Hurstbridge line. Which of youse was it?
I've sorted out all my plants and discovered I missed ordering one - or maybe I decided against it and forgot to take it off my plan, because I'm not sure it really fit the space I had down for it anyway.
I also received a free plant, but the label has partly rubbed off and I have no idea what it is. I've sent the company an email so will hopefully find out - I can't really plant it anywhere if I don't know how big it will get. I'm hoping to get a brief cooler period this afternoon to plant a few out, but I'll probably mostly be dodging storms and showers to get them in tomorrow and Sunday.
I had a meeting with a guy about my business offering. He's one of those outgoing, posts on LinkedIn types. He did one of those breakdowns on how your business could be a million dollar business in 5 years, which every business could be in theory.
My main takeaway is if I could capture 10% of the enthusiasm these sorts of people have, maybe I can cover my end of the mortgage and childcare without needing to dip into my own wages. Anything on top of that is a bonus.
Night peeps
Btw idk if I successfully deployed the semicolons or not. They just looked cool
I watched Juror #2 last night. Clint Eastwood's final film (apparently). It was really good. Strong 12 Angry Men vibes. Definitely recommend it.
Big rain cometh. Looks like we won't miss it this time. I didn't bring a brolly to work, so its my fault. Sorry.

Considering the weather, I think it's appropriate to consume straight ice cream for lunch
So: I'll grab a waffle cone with 2 scoops - the first will be choc mint chip, the 2nd will be mars bar. I'll grab hundreds and thousands on the top, and a bottle of watermelon refreshment flavoured water thanks
