For reasons unknown to me, the very painful right shoulder that’s plagued me since last year, suddenly abated overnight. Was afraid to see a doctor in case they told me to pause work - that would have made life really difficult.

Maybe it was dislocated and I somehow popped it back in? Still a bit sore and restricted, but nothing like it has been.

I had a jaw like that. Copped a smack one day, and it clicked for years when I was eating, like the joint was out of alignment.
Then I got a smack again and all fixed.

Just make sure you don't get a smack again, because you know what the fix will be....lol

Bi-passing the line at the servo yesterday and paying cash because the eftpos didn't work, I cant believe how many people rely on this system to be there always when they need it ? .

I know in the scheme of things its a small hiccup, but its becoming more frequent in the last 12 months

Good to see that it shows CASH is still King I wonder how they solved that problem at the servo, there would have been at least 10 people standing there with confused looks on their faces waiting to pay, and I'm sure there would have been plenty of other places around with the same issues .

This is the problem with the digital age, no real backup, cash is one part of the solution, with the airlines, hospitals what a mess that is.
Makes you wonder if big businesses & organisations will sit up and learn and put in contingency plans, I doubt it

Waking up this morning wondering why the alarm didn't go off..
To find out it's Sunday and not going to work.

Hell yeah, that made me feel good.

More time to work on the new FG.

Didn't take a before pick, but anyhows.
Staying in a hotel I've stayed in before, front desk people are all lovely, so are the housekeepers. Right, so no reason to complain as changing rooms would be annoying to me and also, i find part of this self satisfying. The freezer in the room was the most iced up i have ever seen. So tiny little freezer box in a bar fridge but almost completely filled. So not that i was needing the freezer, i just did the pull the fridge out and turn it off for a few hours. Then the satisfying part of the big slabs of ice coming out with no effort.

So freezer is about the size of a loaf of bread.
