Thank you Percy.
Went back to work today. One of the OTs tried to drop me home after our school visit this morning, but I stayed til the end. Mostly catching up on emails and progress notes. It’s amazing how fast [...]

Valentine’s Weekend

I’ve never been one for mushy, so had no concerns that the weekend was spent with Rish’s mum visiting and me heading to Uni for 8 hours on Sunday.
Yes, I’m furthering my education instead of pushing out kids. *K-Rudd looks on in horror*. Maybe in 4 years when we’re ready for a kidlet, we might [...]

Cooling Off

I got a Distinction for the Lit review on Learning Disorders/Challenging Behaviour I submitted Friday. Yay!
The ultra-fast turnaround got me wondering why the other one hadn’t been marked… turns out the lecturer couldn’t find it in his inbox. Submitting assessments by email sucks. Give me a hard copy or Moodle/Blackboard dropbox instead. I’ve re-emailed. It [...]

There’s something about the rubber on Colgate Toothbrushes that ants seem to love…

erm… this isn’t the first toothbrush of Rish’s this has happened to, either.
Yums.
(In other news, I’ve submitted my last assignment for the year. Uni break! yay! – yes I still have to go to work. But UNI BREAK! YAY!)

As seen over at Scarlet Words…

Speaking of Elizabeth, I’m thinking of writing (and doing!) a 101 things in 1001 days list. But it will have to hold off until after I finish up at uni for the semester. My final assignment is due in 20 days. So after that.
In the mean time…

Make a [...]

Nothing Permanent

I had my first “study leave” morning this morning… and since it was freezing at home, I headed down to Coolo, and to Sakeena’s to sit, read, have a late breakfast, and drink coffee. Sakeena’s tends to be my cafe of choice in Weston Creek… though I usually get takeaway.

There is nothing permanent except change [...]

Riddle?

If a bridge can take 150kg per square metre, and we gather up a whole lot of people, pait them up so there are people piggybacking each other to make 150kg piggybacked people (e.g a 80kilo guy piggybacking a 70 kilo girl)… can we make the bridge collapse??

Or, if we add just one bike…
