Have I overshared? June 15, 2012

You think by now I would be able to recognise PMS for what it is. I mean it’s been happening every month for quite some time. But every month I spend a day wondering why I feel extra stress and emotional. Then I spend a couple of days wondering why I want to scoff all […]

Bestest colleagues June 13, 2012

I have had a beautiful working day with two of my bestest colleagues. Then we went out for dinner and wine. There should be more days like these.

big scary spreadsheets June 12, 2012

The Monday you get when you’re having a Tuesday seemed like too, too many things this morning before I got to work. Imagine my delight to arrive at work and find more distance essays in my pigeon hole when I had thought I was done with them last Friday. Still, I ploughed on through them, […]

At least I’m not standing in sewage June 10, 2012

It’s not having to answer the front door in my pyjamas that I mind so much. It’s the crazy bed-hair that goes with wearing my pyjamas that goes with it. This morning was the third time in about a month that I’ve had to answer the front door in my afore-mentioned PJs. It’s ok. They’re […]

watch out Cate Blanchett….. June 9, 2012

I took my Mum with me to the Bundaberg State High School open day. She went there in 1963 and 1964 and completed Years 9 and 10. That was in the time in Queensland where Year 8 was part of primary school and everyone sat “scholarship”. I went there from 1986 to 1990 in the […]

Dreaming of my very own Josh Lyman June 8, 2012
