  • Miniest didn’t get an offer from her first choice of high school. I came home to a little girl crying in her bedroom, in bed with the curtains closed. I explained that it’s part of the process and probably ed dept policy for every child to be offered a place at a school in their catchment area. We still have an appointment with them later this month… on the very day appeals must be lodged by. So there’s still a (probably slim) chance. But 💔






  • Today was our day of spending time with kids in a civil manner, so we went to Moonee Ponds and had lunch, then had icecream. Miniest couldn’t fit all hers in so I was walking around at one point with a double scoop icecream in each hand lol 🤰🏼 Bought a couple of t-shirts, a Minecraft movie one of Garett Garrison and one of Lisa Simpson in her “I am the Lizard Queen” scene. Elder wants a skateboard 😳 Then I got home and Miniest reminded me of my promise to bake a cake with her today 🫩 so I found a simple chocolate cake recipe, we made that and it worked pretty well. In all it was a most pleasant Sunday.


  • Had grilled salmon at a restaurant in Moonee Ponds and then we got icecreams. I got a double scoop (pavlova flavour and cherry ripple or something) and my daughter got a double as well, while the males in our company sensibly got single scoops. Daughter couldn’t finish hers (double mint choc chip) so I ended up with that one as well. My fat ass consumed both icecreams 🤰🏼
