The aldi liqueur cherry chocolates are great and only 5 bucks a box. 👍🤤🤤

I'll add Queens Danish butter biscuits for $5 to that list.

Hmm… feeling a bit jaded on hobbies lately. There’s not a ton I can do right now.

I could start another Minecraft world but that usually gets a bit boring. I focus on building and play on single player peaceful because I don’t have the patience to fight the annoying mobs. (Or to deal with the twelvies on the servers.)

Melbcat is eating a tiny bit of her biscuits but not nearly as much as I’d like so she’s still getting the extra wet feeds. It’s also weight management food for indoor cats when I want her to gain a bit back. :(

A friend is collecting some parsley seedlings and Seasol for me, and another pot. The water reservoir underneath is only accessible by a tiny hole so if I don’t leave it available in any other way Melbcat won’t be able to have a tasty fertiliser drink.

My little dog loves pork crackle like some cats love catnip. He goes crazy for it. I have to throw it down otherwise he'll take my hand off.

I will dress up for Halloween for work but I cannot figure out what to dress as and it's so frustrating.

Hellooooo Boost for Lemmy. Sync is very good but Boost was my OG Reddit android app so I have to give it a go.

Boost! It's like coming home. Looks pretty good so far, although there are no moderator tools showing, so I'll still have to use the web version for pinning and unpinning. I'm hoping the highlighting of new content will work the same as it did with Reddit, that's the bit I've missed most.

Edit: the highlighting works! New comments showing as bright blue, and the little button to skip to the next new comment is there - I am a happy Raven.

Wondering if I've had this Human metapneumovirus (HMPV). Been constantly "a little sick" for a while. 😬
