Today I convinced a client to dump their incumbent provider and sign with the org I work for.
Got another client to agree to a full security audit.
And a 3rd one to let us do their cyber security insurance.
Big wins for a Monday. Sadly positive feedback is non-existent here. Ah well.
🎉🍾🥳 Congratulations and good work! Go you, you are awesome!
That’s incredibly kind of you, thank you :)
Billable hours reports don’t lie if that’s all people there care about. They’ll notice soon enough one way or another
Exactly. I’ve got a few options in my back pocket this time. The stress of an organisation controlling whether or not I can continue to have somewhere to live is too much stress.
this is awesome work 🙂
I was juggling shopping bags and my heavy backpack on one shoulder arriving home earlier when the backpack slipped off my shoulder and landed directly on my big toe.
Screams of anguish followed, my god it hurt like hell. Worst part is over and I’m icing my toe.
Sorry to hear it :(
When that happens to me, I start quickly repeating “worstpartisover worstpartisover”. I think it helps.
Maybe.
LolEvery 4 years I fall in love with multiple female biathletes
Lent is this Wednesday. I’ll be doing no added sugar during lent as per usual. If anyone wants to join me you’re welcome to.
You shall not come between me and my sugar.
You can choose whatever else that may suit. I choose sugar because that’s the easiest for me. After a week I choose something else to add to my no diet. And so forth.
I have mini stroopwafels that will have to wait now.
Is that like no lollies or no sugar in tea?
No lollies, cakes, biscuits, ice cream, chocolate, soft drinks etc. Fruit is allowed. I don’t have sugar in my hot drinks anyway.
I am already struggling with removing all dairy from my food.
When I run out of cheese I’m not planning on buying anymore for a bit. But I have a fair amount of cheese in the fridge, dam you savemore.
I would sooner give up all booze before cheese. I wish you strength!
I’m not doing it for lent, just taking a break from cheese. I had a crack at veganism last year but I really like eggs, and a bunch of online vegans are total cocks about it.
the only cheese I’ve had in months was the scraped bits left on a pizza after I took the cheese off last week
That would be really hard.
I love butter too , every biscuit, cake, chocolate , sour cream on tacos, yoghurt, pizzas
the list goes on 😟
I have replaced much with oat milk , cakes etc are now made with oil, I eat a lot of vegan stuff now as it’s safe
I just had a homemade coconut milk and berry ice treat
I’ve been putting hommus on my curries instead of yoghurt. When it’s a chickpea curry I degenerately call it chick on chick action.
I like mango chutney 🙂
That’s a lot to give up 🫂
Hmmm no added sugar is slightly tricky for me but maybe I’ll give it a crack.
You can choose whatever you want to give up. I do it as a personal challenge.
I’m sometimes a bit sad that my mother was not good at making salads and I grew up thinking of them as boring garnishes on the side of the plate. Now that I’ve mastered the art of combining ingredients and creating nice dressings salads are often my favourite part of a meal. A waste of all those years I could have been eating salads if only I’d realised sooner!
My husband asked me today if we had chia seeds. Um I’ve been putting them in our salads for the past 4 months.
You got him craving them now
I might have a walk down the beach
I had an excellent swim this evening, it was stunning out there!! Hope the beach treats you jusf as kindly!
Good night everyone
sweet dreams 😘
Catching up with a friend I haven’t seen for 30 years on Saturday afternoon. We reconnected recently and now she’s back in Australia. Just not sure where to go! I’m going to ask them at work, they all actually go out to grown up places 😆Any suggestions would be welcomed.
Oh that’s exciting!! I hope you have a wonderful time! Are you going into the city or looking for a different area?
Thankyou! The city or immediate surrounds is probably easier for both of us.
Forecast 29 degrees. Maybe some CBD area galleries and late arvo cocktail?
A gallery with a nice place to eat 🤔 That actually sounds really good. Those places are usually quiet, which is great because we’ve got a lot to catch up on.
Upstairs at the NGV is free and quiet-ish. Careful talking to the attendants, I made a joke with one about the exit signs and he wouldn’t stop talking to me even as I was walking away saying “thanks, thanks”.
There’s a fair few rooftop bars around now - maybe one of those?
Sounds lovely, though I’m thinking somewhere quieter maybe.
Again. Same spot. The kid in front of me almost got hit by a car. These fucking pieces of shit.

Melbcat slept all day yesterday, ate little and walked out oddly wobbly with her heels down to have some cat grass. Down at the emergency vet and they say it’s ataxia. Waiting on bloods
sending lots of healing vibes and hugs 🫂🐈⬛
Thanks. Her potassium was high which could be her kidneys, we’ll hopefully get the blood results tomorrow.
She’s had an anti nausea shot. Just ate biscuits and drank some water
I’m going to play with my new onigiri molds
Whatcha gonna put in them?
Ooooh I had an onigiri yesterday! So so good. It had wasabi in it
@Bottom_racer@aussie.zone mid March includes a Saturday as the 14th PI DAY just a thought…
ee that means party pies :) I will do a few test runs they usually explode.
Cut a couple of little slits in the top pastry before putting it on the pie. This allows steam to escape which is what usually causes splosions.
The 15th is Baku’s birthday if they’re still about.
I dropped avocado covered with salad dressing down my front while eating lunch. I tried to clean it up with a wet wipe and now I have a giant wet patch and smell of disinfectant. 😭
get as much of that stuff off as possible before you wash as avocado will stain clothes
At least it’s just my work uniform. And if it does stain I can mostly hide it behind my lanyard!
That is a definition of skinny that I haven’t heard before!
