Hello world! I know I’ve been super quiet lately, but that’s because my world has been HECTIC! I’ve had a few changes in job roles, where I have been stepping up, and stepping down and sideways; been offered opportunities left right and centre, and today, I finally have a moment to breathe! We last spoke…

Hello reader! Long time no write! So much has happened since then! For starters, I had all four wisdoms out. Did it suck? Yes. Would I recommend it? Yes, but at an earlier age. Don’t be all geriatric like me and try to bounce back from this without considerable discomfort. Am I still in pain…

Hello everyone, Things have been really busy lately (in a good way) and I’ve not really had a chance to slow down and stop. Unfortunately, the one day I decided to do so, we found out that Neo’s best furriend Lewis started his journey over the rainbow bridge. The oddity in all this is, I…

Hello reader! I decided to change the layout of the blog to a simpler one – the colour combination of the old styling was giving me the sads. Happy end of 2023! I say that with as much false cheer and happy face as I can manage. I am definitely being a bit dramatic, but…

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”…

Hi Readers, **Trigger Warning – suicidal ideation** It’s been a busy few months for yours truly here, and it’s been fun, but tiring and some of it really should go away. So as I may have said in the past (or not – brain fog, remember?) I have changed my work site – still based…

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! I hope 2023 has been a lot better then the past few years for you so far. Also, it’s the end of April. I swear I blinked in January and boom! April! What has happened? Well, as you all know, I’m sitting pretty at the new job. It’s been really interesting and challenging…

Hello readers! It is December, which means Christmas is around the corner! Now, I love Christmas; less so for the gift giving part and more for the fact that our family comes together for a smashingly good meal (prepared by yours truly), we drink lots of good booze and generally a good time is had…

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,…
