Released from hospital, referrals to specialists, on and on it goes. Back to hanging in there and trying to cope with pain while I wait. I’m feeling like hell and very wobbly.

Still trying to get a quick stick vacuum in while Moobeans isn’t here to get stressed or breathe floating dust. I also broke out the scented carpet stain remover to clean away the last of the stubborn vom spots so hopefully the smell *of the cleaner is gone by the time she’s back.

Many loud sky explosions, and everything has suddenly become very wet. I think the predicted storm might be here.

Edit: And now ther are chunks of ice falling everywhere.

Looks like Melton will get hammered, again too. Might rain here in Thornbury - I did water the garden but refrained from washing the windows just in case.

Nothing here yet. I think Gisborne and Sunbury might cop it.

Anyone here done speed dating? The thought of it is terrifying but I don’t now how else to meet singles. Apps fucking suck.

I’ve done it. It wasn’t terrible but lower your expectations would be my suggestion.

I want to give it a try, meeting people for the first time in real life is so much better. But the thought of it is very scary. I’ve found a provider that looks good, just need to sign up and do it.

Yep I have. Actually had a good time. Met a few people that I ended up seeing for a little while which was fun.

But I don’t go anymore. Real life is so much better and also terrifying which I’m a fan of.

8th night without power, in the Yarra Ranges. Really not good. The Outage Tracker seems to say that maybe tomorrow night late the power will be restored. Not holding my breath.

Well, I didn’t need to hold my breath. The power is back on! Thanks everyone for your kind words over the past few days, really helped.

Of course, now I can hear approaching thunder crackling in the distance. Another storm… 😳

Was it down long enough for you to get the $1920?

Got my power back today too. Thursday is looking bad weather wise. I’ve just come inside due to thunder now too.
