I was cuddling my 3 year old Westie last night and got sad about how dogs don't last forever

I had to get one of mine down last year and my other one is not too far off. Sucks.

Footy. When the Roos went downhill initially, I was shitty. North had been decent, if not quite good in the years prior.

2 or so years ago it became funny, because it was absurd how bad things had started to get. That period was almost great - there was no expectation and when something occasionally went right it was good for a laugh.

Now I feel like it's fully wrapped around again, and it makes me genuinely sad that something I used to really enjoy has been ruined for me lol

At least you've won a final in the last 20 yesrs.

Dad has been a bricklayer since he was 15 (60 now) and is probably going to have to retire from it due to sciatica. Poor bugger has never used a computer in his life (literally), so he'd have no chance of transitioning to office work.

Sitting isn't so bad, it's the twisting and turning that triggers it. He's fine to just lay bricks, but mixing up mortar and everything is what does most of the damage.

I think he's having a meeting next week with an organization that helps with older people transitioning to new work.
