I've gone full Kevin McCallister, home alone tonight as the kids are having sleepovers and the wife is at work. This is the first time in, possibly, ten years I've been without any of my family at home and it feels weird.

Did an 18 hour fast today and walked across town to drop off my son's things to his friends house, adding to my walk at the fiat mines. Tired and alone 😂, time for bed. GN

The plant is edible, so I'd assume the flower is too. I've only ever eaten the stems.

40 minute weights workout, first one in a while due to some back issues, then work in the garden for the afternoon. Had the day off, allowed me to gsd for myself and the homestead.

The flower is one of my wifes favourites, it's a succulent called Pigface. This particular one I liberated from the Flinders Ranges last time we were up there. It produces these large and very bright flowers.

Physically demanding day at the fiat mines, lots of walking, still managed a 25 minute run in the afternoon. Looking forward to some well earned sleep.

GN gatto grillers.

At a site yesterday I found a bee swarm under a roof overhang. After reporting it to the office, thinking they would call a beekeeper, I returned to find a Groundskeeper just casually blasting the area and bees with a big tub of poison.

I don't get people who deal with problems like that, just poison everything, kill everything, destroy a swallow nest because it's in the rafters and made of mud. This is the problem, because most people think exactly like that.

Busy day at the fiat mines and I managed an hour of walking on top, feeling tired but happy with the day.

GN to all and to some a GM.

The area is known as 'Battunga', in the local Peramangk language, which means "place of large trees", which is still true today.

5km walk tonight after the fiat mines, one of my regular routes out of town and back, through bush and farmland.

Diabetes was a cool enough gift.

Final levelling and laying of a thick layer of mulch, the aim is to create a more usable outdoor space, connected to our courtyard and house, to use in spring and summer.

It was hard yakka, taking most of the day.

Now for some seating and replanting of bee attracting flowers and herbs for the kitchen.
