Hello reader! It’s been a minute, hasn’t it? I’ve started to settle into the new role (passed my probation yas!) but I may have done something silly and triggered a HUGE chronic fatigue crash. Turns out I can only really sustain 70+ hour weeks for about 5 weeks before the body goes “NO NO NO”…

Hello reader, I hope you are well in these rather interesting times. Today is the 125th day of 2023, and has it been a flurry so far! The World Health Organisation (WHO) have declared that COVID-19 is no longer a global emergency, but it is still a global health threat. Over in the United Kingdom,…

Hello reader, Yes, it has been a while, but it has not been for bad reasons! I have simply been BUSY. You see, late last year I applied for a new job. Except I did it on the 27th of December, during one of the busiest times at the family business. In addition to that,…

Hello reader, It’s been quiet here in Melbourne lately. We have a state election coming up (November 26th), but nothing too crazy is happening on our side of town. I’ve been passing time watching the tail end of the 2022 Formula 1 Grand Prix Championship (whilst trying not the be too sad about Vettel’s retirement,…

Hello readers! I hope you are all well and getting through this super cold winter we are shivering through in Melbourne. It’s been a really disjointed few months for me, and the trip to Singapore and the States feels like an eternity ago. As you know, I had an undiagnosed (kept testing negative) case of…

Hello readers! I’m still finalizing my in between posts – things have been a little hectic lately, but today I celebrate another lap around the sun, and it’s been a hell of a year. I’m 36 this year (have never understood the whole lying about your age thing, maybe because my ever practical mumma bear…

Hello readers! Long time no see! (as my mum likes to say). Unfortunately, after almost three years of avoiding COVID-19, our whole family fell prey to it after mum had a visit to hospital. Except ME. I got the flu, because I’m special like that, and to be honest, I think I would have rather…

Hello everyone! If I may just have a little rant for a moment…. or perhaps a confession? I have hit the wall. In terms of the pericarditis and the associated issues that have stemmed from the COVID-19 vaccination. Despite it all, I am still a huge advocate for people getting vaccinated as I’m pretty sure…

Hello everyone! Where has the time gone? How is it almost Lunar New Year and into the second month of the year? I for one know what has been keeping people occupied this month. 1. Exploding Omicron figures (we are consistently in 5 figures every day) 2. The Djokovic saga (which could have been easily…

Disclaimer: I’m not a Karen, nor is my name Karen. I’ve also never asked to see a manager before… We are now 13 days into 2022, and there has been very little to inspire me. Our daily numbers in Victoria are in the 5 figure area; there are very few rules in place to try…

Hello readers! Let me start off by wishing you all a very belatedly Merry Christmas; Happy Holidays and a safe and prosperous New Year. It has, unfortunately, not been the best end to 2021 as I had hoped. I last wrote in October, where I was navigating the ‘I had a reaction to the Pfizer’…

Hello reader! I know it’s been a while – we have been in lockdown since mid-July and I’ve been a little too depressed to write. Lockdown this year has been harder than last year as we have had to get through them without government support. They keep telling us that we are in their thoughts…
