Dear Diary, house maintenance, braces, BDO, house house house

• Cleaned the gutters with chaosmanor as our contribution to managing cyclone and fire danger - it’s warm up there on the roof!
• Discussed a plan of attack for the blown kitchen lights with my father who knows things (water and electrical damage methinks). I foresee some crawling around in the ceiling with a torch, some silicone glue and a pair of pliers in my immediate future but need to find a good time. I think both House Martians should be home to provide moral support and turn things on and off (and call an ambulance if things go horribly wrong). Also I kind of want a full body suit with a hood since last time I was up there I had a powerful urge to burn EVERTHING I was wearing after.
• Braces tightened… it’s been five days and I’m still not back to solid foods *practices self pity* (realistically I'm already quite good at self pity and would benefit more from practicing say, Spanish or maybe Relentless Optimism). On the plus side I have blue elastics \o/
• Discovered our awesome new hanging chairs can be used as hammocks if you put your feet in one as well. PLUS if you get your knees right when the woofer drops a tennis ball in your lap it falls straight out again.
• Skipped Big Day Out, was sad but hit physical discomfort limit and wasn’t going to be able to enjoy it, got a bit mournful when baby brother starting texting me things like RAMSTEIIIIIIIIIIN and coped by sending him random German words from my pitiful German vocabulary - mostly learned from said baby bro who gets excited *loves*.
• Went house hunting with chaosmanor and cupidsbow - we agree on the kind of house we want to live in - now narrowing down what locations are acceptable. Operation: Queer Feminist Commune is Go! *drowns in finance paperwork and co-ownership contracts*

Leadership Effectiveness #3

No readings this week, but Journal #2 due this week was three pages and took me a fair amount of soul wrestling so I was glad to not have to take in new stuff.
