Frequent swearer, coffee drinking, wine soaked, stressed IT project participant - have you tried turning it off and on again?
The drive today was unexpectedly mostly stress free … and as a bonus - I’m treating myself to a steak for dinner (rather than a fast food emergency convenience purchase) - namely because the tavern is a 2 min stroll from the motel

Drove up to the mountains, bought fancy bread and sausages and salami, had coffee and a morning bun, returned home to run a couple of errands that I’ve been meaning to complete for weeks! … and now … iced coffee and tonic and lemon :) it’s been a good day

My favourite ceramic shop had a sale a few months back - and had never reopened their online shop since
They make my favourite handleless coffee mugs
I’m at the ONLY place that stocks their ceramic ware … I’m going to have to buy another mug - aren’t I?

Australia's Heart Foundation just launched an info campaign on the harms of COVID to cardiovascular health - good to see!
But current vaccines only reduce risk of heart damage, they do not eliminate it. We need masking, clean indoor air, better prevention & next gen vaccines

NSW: Why everyone is getting sick in November.
High flu cases are driving NSW emergency visits, with influenza up 33% in early Nov and 400 influenza-like illnesses presentations last week.
COVID cases remain stable. “We’re hoping they’ll remain low over Christmas,” NSW Health’s Dr McAnulty said.🤦♂️

Last week i attempted a ‘honey oat slice’ - it was meant to be like a crunchy muesli bar - instead part of it crumbled like granola. It’s sustained me all week when I’ve need a small sweet treat. It’s not half bad though. Would make again.

In other news - the magpie pair outside are soooo screechy - it’s not the lovely whistle or calls, it’s just this grating squawking. I wonder how long it will take for them to realise I’m a friend when i start sharing dehydrated mealworms as snacks from my balcony

Did not spend the usual 15-20 minutes this morning, preparing my calendar and mapping out my day. Consequently am feeling all out of sorts
Every 15 minutes my brain keeps freaking out making me check “oh wait, am i meant to be in a meeting right now”/
