Ugh… I ended up sleeping most of today. I have no energy. I left the back door (screen locked) open, forgot to water the plants and forgot to put out bird/wildlife water. I’ve managed to water the plants, close the door and put on the cooling but that’s all.
My health is getting pretty wrecked.
I had one win though. Melbcat has been having little accidents due to the uti but after two leaks in the bed I put down a washable puppy pad and layered some towels over it. That has just saved me from having to strip the whole thing tonight. I’ve chucked another pad down with an old flannel sheet over it and can just throw the other stuff in a nappy cycle with knockoff napisan.
Just got back to my place after a day and a half with my parents split system and it’s SO GROSS in here. Stripped, AC and fan on. Think I’ll sleep with everything going tonight!
Never ever get a west facing apartment with no obstructions to block the afternoon sun.
Limited supply due to weight loss without tears dieters - so limited that people who need it for diabetes and/or other life saving purposes CAN’T GET IT.
@Thornburywitch@wscholermann there are several other GLP-1 agonists available. They are just as effective for weight loss and actually work better for some people. Chemists are generally only filling ozempic scripts if they are not being prescribed off-label, at least until the shortage eases. There are also compounding pharmacies that can create bioidentical product during the shortage, but Novo don't like them.
The GLP-1 agonists are also proving very effective at helping people quit smoking, alcohol, and a whole range of addictions. They are truly an amazing class of drug and generics will be available in upcoming years, which will make them much more affordable.
There really ought to be a website/app dedicated to recognising what exactly IS the healthy weight for a given age, height, bone structure and reproductive history. My suspicion is that the range of ‘healthy’ weight is really quite wide, a lot wider than the diet industry would have us believe.
My theory is that if one’s organs are working fine, bone structure is fine, and you’re not limited in your activity level, then you’re healthy.
Hmm I’m not sure it’s that simple. For instance you can have very unhealthy habits, and while the symptoms may not present themselves in the short term it will catch up with you eventually.
I’ve been having a break from alcohol for a bit (~2.5 months so far), and haven’t even lost a pound. I’m so disappointed. Might have made up for it with alcohol-free beer & cider and extra timtams though, I guess
Grrrrr. After spending the morning trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored in the bathtub, I am seriously invested in getting the damned things dry before storing them ready for winter. And this is the first weekend day this summer where there’s been a hope in Hades of getting them dry. Effing feathers. Next 35 plus day on a weekend is the rugs. If I’m lucky, there’ll be a howling wind for faster drying.
What I find interesting is that the renders of the State Library station entrance artwork more clearly show there will be (or might be) a building above.
We haven’t been able to find Lick pier for ages, they went bust. Someone has apparently bought them out, but I haven’t seen (or even looked for) any for at least 12 months. I’m shattered as I don’t like the taste of most alcohol, but I did like them.
It’s nice to see magpies and noisy miners making use of the bird bowl for drinking and splashing in. Hope they are doing ok in this heat, glad I could help them out.
My silly black cat has declared today is an outdoor day. I check her very frequently, pet door is open and she’s hanging around in the shade outside. Bloody weirdo.
