Good night, folks.
Off to Mum’s tomorrow - my childhood (14y+) home… likely for the last time; sorting boxes with family before she moves in a week or so. I know it’s going to be full-on as well as emotionally hard so please think good thunks (prayers welcome). 🙏🏼
Back home Sunday… squeak then xx

I am also a bit grumpy because our washing machine has eaten another 2 (newish) bras! I put them in bags, then in a big bag along with another garment and still the under-wiring has been demolished. I have told Mr P he needs to make a decision: keep forking out for new bras or get a new machine. 😡

When you ask a colleague for some scene ideas to start work on a futuristic fictional publication cover, only to be sent an AI essay on all the themes and !!!how to design it!!! (colours, style…)
My reply: …”while interesting and a useful tool, I don’t need [AI app] to do my creative job for me”…

One reason I don’t buy from the likes of Shein or Temu
The people who make Shein's clothes labor for ten to twelve hours per day (in violation of China's labor laws), some up to seven days a week, and earn as little as 15 to 30 cents per t-shirt.
![Excerpt from a BBC article: ""We usually work, 10, 11 or 12 hours a day," says a 49-year-old woman from Jiangxi unwilling to give her name. "On Sundays we work around three hours less."
She is in an alleyway, where a dozen people are huddled around a row of bulletin boards.
They are reading the job ads on the board, while examining the stitching on a pair of chinos draped over it.
This is Shein's supply chain. The factories are contracted to make clothes on order - some small, some big. If the chinos are a hit, orders will ramp up and so must production. Factories then hire temporary workers to meet the demand their permanent staff cannot fulfil.
The migrant worker from Jiangxi is looking for a short-term contract - and the chinos are an option.
"We earn so little. The cost of living is now so high," she says, adding that she hopes to make enough to send back to her two children who are living with their grandparents.
"We get paid per piece," she explains. "It depends how difficult the item is. Something simple like a t-shirt is one-two yuan [less than a dollar] per piece and I can make around a dozen in an hour.""](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ks3gpa6ftoyaq7hmf6c4qx4c/bafkreiber7g4o5pujmzmjjzsp5dkz7blfexburuwjispfpv6dki7akjb7a@jpeg)

Me dahlia bits (in a pot) have gone black. Time to cut them down next weekend when I’m next here.
Question, should I pull the tuber out and store, or just do a heavy mulch?

I am working at my desk in my pyjamas and have a Teams call in a few minutes. This is because I wanted to have a shower, but I was too busy faffaging on my phone to get up earlier. Fortunately, I don’t think I need to have my camera on. Fortunate for everybody else I mean.

Good night lovely folk. Working from home tomorrow then off to Mum’s for weekend for final ‘hurrah’ of box sorting before she exchanges. It’s going to be hard work (physically and emotionally).

Fun Christmas choir rehearsal tonight - just one more left with ‘just us’ before we join with the band and soloists for two full rehearsals. It’s our usual worship rehearsal night so any of us singers had to automatically join the choir (unless singing that Sunday then joined rehearsal after!).

Hey @wombat37.bsky.social - inspired by your post and lovely followers, I thought I’d send you a snippet from tonight’s church choir rehearsal - our group had been put together just for this Christmas! It’s a bit raucous at this stage (and missing the soloist!) but you get the gist! 🎶

Colleague has given me some of her (minestrone) soup as the on-site soup didn’t look appealing (sweet potato and celeriac). It’s the only soup they seem to be doing lately! All a bit beige!

We have a keypad to get into our building from the foyer. Today I tried to get in with my door key. Yes, a colleague saw me. ‘How we laughed!’ Wazzock! 😆

Oh and a bonus…

Late tea as forgot a fork for my salad. A bit hangry when I got in, compounded by someone parking like a loon on the street as I tried to get by.

I’m awake at silly* o’clock (*01:45) because I had a late afternoon nap with no alarm set.
Work tomorrow (today?!) is going to be fun.
And I have a dentist check-up.
Other than that, still happily processing the last couple of days.
