Well that escaped containment... Man I wish there were better privacy settings on here.

6 of my SoM kids just got cast in Oliver! 🥹 one Kurt is Oliver, one Friedrich is Dodger, and both Martas, a Brigitta and a Louisa are in the kids chorus. I'm so freakin proud of them! Now the big question is, do I push back my foot surgery for a second time to help out? Probably shouldn't... But 🤔

What non theatre song do you think deserves a full musical built around them? Yes I need suggestions for my next music league round, and at least 60% of my playlists are showtunes. Help?!

This idiot (af) turns 65 this week and had cake with Caramello koalas at church this morning for breakfast. I think we'll feed him that for breakfast every day. He's so entertaining today. Bouncing off the walls, and told us the cake was cut into round squares 😄

The NDIS currently want PROOF that my down syndrome uncle, who also has dementia, isn't going to "get better" What? Are we waiting for him to stick a fork into the toaster? Or blow up the microwave because he put his wheat bag in water before heating it? Or go wandering the streets at night? 🤬🤬🤬

Two days of work hell including stocktake and a crazy customer who threatened to call the cops on us 🤷🏼‍♀️, plus a vertigo flare. Fun times...

Would dearly love to go out chasing pretty coloured sky lights, but I'm in pjs, I have to be at work at 9 tomorrow, and last time I went out I sat on the beach, by myself, in the cold for two hours and this is all I got.

There's some good in the world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for. #rememberanceday #lestweforget

Christmas crafting has begun

Starting to get into the Christmas spirit. *Not too far, I still have a birthday to celebrate yet. **I have no idea what the discourse is, but that's not unusual. It's times like this I'm happy to not be able to be constantly online. ***Sending hugs to anyone who needs one/many🫂

One day my foot will be fixed and I will walk/dance/clown my way through the 3.5km parade. The absolute dream.

Pageant day! Today was the 93rd Christmas pageant here in Adelaide which marks the start of the Christmas season. It is the biggest parade in the southern hemisphere with over 3000 costumes 17,000 volunteers and 320,000 spectators. People were literally camping overnight for their spots.

The amount of HP merchandise being donated to my op shop makes me happy. I take great joy in placing them in to rags or the bin 😁

What if I was thinking... AUDHD...

I stabbed myself in the eye with my eyeshadow brush this morning and it's been so irritated and weepy all day and now I have a stabby headache and can't sleep.

Today I started work at 9.30 and there is a form that needs to be in by 10. My boss hadn't done it, so I do it and then got told "You were late submitting it so it now won't happen." Dude. It's not even my job to do it! YOU were here early! And YOU are the boss! Fucking do YOUR job! 🤬

Things I am SICK of seeing in every single recipe on the internet right now Chilli oil, or chilli anything that can't be omitted Edamame Baby spinach Chia seeds You put any of these in a recipe and it's an instant no from me. I love getting recipe inspiration online but it's so frustrating rn!

It has never happened to me before, but tonight, at the ripe old age of 42, I bled through onto my sheets. Fuck perimenopause. I've NEVER been this heavy.

Since people are sharing Halloween costumes, I'll share some of me in costumes.*none were actually Halloween costumes 1. Cruella, thrifted 2. Pirate, thrifted 3. Dot from MFMM, thrifted 4. Mama Odie (I know it's nothing like her outfit in the movie, I just can't wear white) thrifted

They made a Karl and Olivia dress! #ofmd

As "Halloweeny" as I get

I'm never on anyone's lists I never make it into anyone's friend circles Because I'm not able to be online all the time I can't create fanart I barely have time and energy to write the wip I've been working on for a different fandom for 5 years, I haven't even updated it since May Forever alone

Happy national cat day to all who celebrate Featuring a photo of the prettiest kitty I ever did pet sit. Minnie 🥰

My neighbour has new bunnies! I spent all afternoon on the floor watching them run and bounce, and not in the kitchen doing meal prep for this week. Whoops! Left is Smokey, right is Brownie. They are a brother and sister bonded pair. So Cute!

Do we really NEED another version of a Christmas carol? Do we need to be giving Johnny D*pp further promotion? The Muppets and Michael Caine did it perfectly anyway, Why bother even trying. You can't beat perfection. *Please sir, I want some cheese*

Hands up whose 16 year old boy neighbour invites himself over on a rainy afternoon to serenade you on the piano while you're cooking dinner because "he didn't have a piano lesson this week" 🙋🏼‍♀️ *Images of raw chicken in video* *Music is merry go round of life* *Always happy to share recipes*

Someone alert The Swede! The teeth might not go back in, but they can be regrown!

Further to this post, Little Buddy is making sure we are aware of him today 😍

Happy reptile awareness day to all who celebrate, but particularly to little buddy, the blind bluey who lives in our backyard

How does one go about upping and leaving their job, blowing up their life and starting all over again? Retraining. In what I have no clue. But retail? Yeah, I'm sick of it.

One of my young disabled male vollies brought these in to me today and asked if they were lollies. He was convinced it was sherbet. We all carefully avoided eye contact as I had to explain to him that no they weren't lollies, it was something ladies* use 🤭

Told my family months ago I wanted tickets to the Nutcracker for my birthday. They've done nothing and now it's sold out. You watch, I'll end up getting another voucher for a store I don't shop at, like I did last year. They're always asking what I want, cos I'm apparently SO hard to buy for 1/2

It would have been my Mervins birthday today. It hasn't gotten any easier, but I'm learning to be without her. She would have been so excited for me working with the kids in SoM. l wish we could just share a Laksa and watch the nanny together. Fuck cancer. Love you always my Mervin. Love Mervin 💔

Happy hug a drummer day to all who celebrate, but particularly to my dad 🥰🫂

Made one of these for each of the kids. Included a few photos and their name, and a little message about how much I enjoyed working with them and that I hope they can use the journal to collect memories from future shows they are in. F*ck I miss them already. Gonna go cry again now

One of our Kurt's warm ups/vocal stims was the riff at the end of defying gravity, and while I'm going to miss the shit out of these kids, I'm ready for a break from that particular vocal line... Though he did write me an adorable little thankyou note 🥺 I'm honestly surprised I had any tears left

If I never go to sleep, tomorrow will never come, and I will never have to deal with the final two shows, and the post show depression that I already know is going to SUCK ASS! Finally got to see it from the other side of the curtain tonight. Final two shows are sold out!

D-R-I-E-D-F-R-O-G-P-I-L-L-S

Post you from a different era Baby Kermit talking to her "auntie sissy" on the rotary phone with the typewriter in the background

My dad "you've been a completely different person these last few weeks" My mum "if you could do this and be paid it would be perfect" Friend "you must be in your element" Honestly. Getting involved with this show has been the best thing I've done for myself in years. Post show blues is gonna suck

Opening night tonight baybee!!! Check out some of the amazing kidlets I have the privilege to dress and try to keep quiet backstage every night.

Tech week for SOM. So far I've Broken two zips Put two kids in each other's costumes Missed Gretl's entrance in once scene cos I couldn't buckle her shoes Got the other Gretl's dress stuck on her mic tape Forgot to pull Marta's socks up and sent her on stage with them bunched around her ankles

Wait. Is the rapture supposed to happen Tuesday Australian time or US time? Cos it's Tuesday here... And there's nothing to report... 🤷🏼‍♀️

Very rarely do I remember my dreams. Last night I vividly remember dreaming that I quit my job. In a spectacular way. So much so that I woke up and was slightly worried about finding a new job... Thankfully I'm on holidays, hopefully some time away from work clears my head a bit.

Happy international talk like a pirate day! Love the surprisingly curvaceous pirate. Polite Menace, that'll be my brand.

If my boss did as much work as she did whinging I wouldn't be so fuxking exhausted 🫩

We had Sitzprobe today. We have a 24 piece orchestra. There is a freaking harp. You'll find me laying in the floor in a pool of my own tears at the end of every show. Honestly I'm not prepared to do this every night 🥹
