This is called Summer?
Apparently it’s the first day of Summer. But you wouldn’t know it with this weather… rain for a week, flooding, darkness in the day and more. It’s rained more this year than for years previously, and don’t we know it. … Continue reading
Luxury and family
Two different dinners today, with the work Christmas lunch at Aqua at Milsons Point, with crazy perfect views of the Harbour Bridge. Very, very good food, where I get to indulge my fish love (without my fish allergic wife), and … Continue reading
Back to the grind
Went back to work today, after a long weekend at home. Much of the same old thing at work really, with no great issues (even when I thought there would be), and no great revelations. Rugged right up as usual, … Continue reading

Can you hear me?
Another hospital trip today, this time mainly for Alex. A hearing test… to put it bluntly we’re quite sure heĀ has some hearing problems, we’re just not sure how much. It would explain a lot, like his speech, and his … Continue reading
Friday on my mind
Currently in a work sense, I’m really not doing Fridays very well… Day’s too long, work is too overdone, and not enough gets done anyway. Work-wise, it’s all crazy… I’d rather be doing the new things, but the old things … Continue reading
