I made a huge ‘To Do’ list this morning. I woke up feeling the holidays were melting away too quickly and I wasn’t getting things done in time. I have been pottering around all day on a number of things but when I checked tonight, I had barely touched anything on that list!
How did that […]

Victorian school holidays this year, seem to have been determined without much thought or regard. We have a term one that lasted roughly 8 weeks and then go back to a long wintery 13 week term. Doesn’t make sense to me.
The Australia 2020 Summit has been impossible to organise for our students because the last week […]

Yesterday I was back in the big smoke for another session. It went great. I had lunch with my beautiful daughter, cause I wanted to get home last night and not have a sleepover. I visited my baby sister at the backpackers where she works in the city. It was great to see her in […]

Tonight I drove home as the sun […]

Last night I had the most vivid and clear dreams. I woke up thinking I was in a totally different life. One that was quite alien to me, with people I don’t know. How bizarre!
I had a nap this afternoon and had another vivid dream. I dreamt I went to the school tuckshop and ordered […]

The perfect Easter movie is ‘Chocolat’. I often think of that scene where the mayor wakes up from a chocolate coma in the window of the Chocolate shop. I just love it. It is delicious and the perfect accompaniment to the excesses of the Easter season chocolates. Let’s face it, you can’t watch the film […]

Is Good Friday ever really good? Well, in my experience, not that often. I wonder if I am conditioned by the Catholic upbringing to feel grief and sadness on that day. I remember actually being quite horrified by the whole crucifiction idea to be honest. It’s pretty full on really. It could be because I […]
