Compared to my last workplace, it's refreshing, and whilst in an ideal world I wouldn't work for money at all, it's nice to be smiled at and to be asked what I'm doing on the weekend. There's a group of people that are real foodies as well, and bring in baked…reblurtedmineopoly in # blurt • 4 yr. ago • 1 min readI'm Not Upvoting DramaThat's all I want to say.

As the hubs was still feeling poorly, I went on my own, to a place we used to go with my folks when we were kids - Phantom Falls, behind Lorne, Victoria.

I feel like it's hard to be like them.It's been week since my last anxiety. Over the years I didn't experience those kind of anxiety until I gave birth to my son last 2018 and decided to be stay at home mom. I know this kind of feelings were valid as we have what we called post partum depression. It is not easy I admit.

Why people felt the need to pay for a lettuce at that price I don't know, and pubs were even reassessing the traditional salad next to the famous chicken parmigiana and chips, an Australian icon of mythical proportions.

I went into the forest to say a proper goodbye to Mikey. It was cold and foggy, proper beautiful. Breathed and softly said goodbye.

And then I saw them take…riverflows in # blurtstory • 4 yr. ago • 3 min readSee Ya Cuz, Fare Thee WellMy cousin Michael died in his sleep - we think - yesterday. At least he was found in his bed, dead. The police came and informed his mother last night.
