The official start of spring, the final single digit month of the year…. September, you’re pretty special.
- Spring has sprung and what beautiful weather to usher in the new season.
- I just met lovely people wherever I went today. Here. There. Everywhere.
- I opened a new block of chocolate for the treats jar today. This one’s a keeper!
- The inevitable has happened. I am sadly nearing the end of a series of crime novels I have become very attached to. The grief is real, I tell you!
- It was ‘Be Late For Something’ Day today. I was late for something - lunch. Because I left it at home. Never mind.
- An evening of reflection, inspiration and gratitude. It was my work’s annual staff dinner tonight and I heard so many stories of courage, hope and selflessness over the course of the evening. Reminding me again about the unique position and perspective of my chosen profession.
- Free lollies with my Saturday shopping? Don’t mind if I do.
- Found! The bag of summer. These Ikea mini shoppers are a steal at 69 cents a pop. Cents….
- I’m still wondering whether I sent my fax the right way up this afternoon… We must be the only industry in Australia that still depends on fax machines.
- I’ve lost count of the number of mugs of tea I’ve drunk today to keep warm. Windy days always make me feel cold.
- Oh I’m all talked out from today. All. Talked. Out.
- Looking forward to starting the penultimate book in the DI Greene series in bed tonight.
- Well done, Master SSG on your ribbon for running at your athletics carnival today!
- Panadol, fresh berries, oranges and plenty of fluids. Everything and anything to make sure I get over this cold for race day tomorrow.
- What a stunning day for a 10K and what a time! Over the moon.
- So glad that I was able to carve out some time just for myself this morning. Opportunities like that don’t come around twice on a Monday.
- Considering myself very fortunate to have the privilege of listening to Steve Biddulph speak tonight. He is such an engaging and thought provoking speaker.
- This dragging around a wet umbrella everywhere I go is wearing very, very, very thin at the moment.
- One of those days that didn’t quite go to plan…. pretty much from the get go. Still, at least tomorrow is FRIDAY!!!!
- A picnic lunch in the car, Master SSG’s school musical, dinner with my brother from Perth and a drive back and forth into … The CBD. A day of high adventure! And yes, we made it back home without getting too lost from that spot of city driving.
- An absolutely lovely evening having dinner with my family. It meant to much to be able to bring everyone together tonight.
- A day of celebration. Friendships, birthdays, family.
- The last Monday of term and the last Monday before annual leave. Bring. It. On.
- Beautiful morning at Parsley Bay as a school excursion parent. I had the foresight to bring hand sanitizer! I wasn’t much practical help beyond this though.
- And that’s term three done and dusted.
- So close I can taste that R and R. Second last day at work before annual leave. Oh, and I managed to get a heap of errands done straight after work before heading home. It's the little things.
- My ‘out of office’ email went live at 5pm. See you in a bit, hectic workplace and adorable Face of a new hospital initiative. Be good while I’m away.
- I don't even know who I am anymore. I've started packing. A good 5 days out from my flight.
- I don't know why I get so anxious about my optometrist appointment. It was all much less painful than I feared it would be. It was even a pleasant experience thanks to my lovely optometrist.
- Today was the last day of the last single-digit month of twenty nineteen. Anyone else in a mild panic that it's happened already?

Oh annual leave, yay! Enjoy! I'm very impressed with your packing prowess and levels of organisation. And what an incredible time at Blackmore's - love your work!
ReplyDeleteHi SSG - well that was a month full of variety and I'm glad you're having a break to catch your breath! And I know what you mean about faxes - both the specialists I worked for used one for everything - maybe one day they'll finally move over to the electronic system for everything - not my problem any more though :)
ReplyDeleteI'm spacing out my DI Greene novels - but loving them... As for the last single digit month of the year, the rest are going to fly by!
ReplyDeleteHave a great holiday - and what an awesome time! You should be stoked! You're quick!
ReplyDeleteI loved reading the DI Greene novels too, so miss them now! Enjoy the holidays ahead. Isn't it funny I don't mind the optometrist but I fear the dentist! #lifethisweek
ReplyDeleteBy now, you will be counting down in hours till you leave. Great job on the run, lady!! Love your catch ups.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time in Paris. I look forward to following on IG.
