And breathe......
because the official countdown to the SSG Manor 2.0 annual season of celebration can now officially begin.
I've done my last weekend for work while the summer school holidays have also officially begun.
I still don't quite know how we all survived (and even thrived) through it all but we did. Actually, I can hazard a guess. We got through because of our collective efforts and willingness to lend a hand where it was needed or to support our communities by following the rules and obeying the health advice we were given. We found the good in ourselves and in doing so brought out the good in others.
It was Speech Night for Master SSG's school on Monday. I have a different opinion of them as a parent than I did as a student. I actually listen to the speeches with interest. The performances move me for many reasons. I marvel at how people so young can express themselves with such feeling and maturity through the spoken word, music and movement. I appreciate artists like Dave Groll and the Foo Fighters for how their music transcends genres and cultural context so beautifully that their work brought the house down at a preparatory school speech night in Sydney, Australia.
In less exciting news from speech night, I managed to apply a full face of makeup for the first time in ...many, many months. It's like riding a bike - you never forget!
The annual Target Click and Collect Christmas toys haul has been clicked and collected.
