Halloween night was good (costume and hotel room pics to come later this week), amazing how much you can fit into 23 hours in Sydney :) A few hours sleep, we managed to drive home safely… watched the cool storm coming in over the wind farm at Lake George.

It’s a gorgeous spring day today…. tops of mid 20s for Canberra on the first day of October. You think it might hang around for the long weekend? It seems not…

This is when I start being happy I’ll in Newcastle for the long weekend. Until I see the weather predictions there:

erm. Okay. At least I [...]

The dust storm (oh and the gastro and cold and flu viruses that are going around) was all anyone spoke about today.

Fortunately, I don’t have the gastro. I think I have a cold though. ugh. Looking forward to rain and a good night’s sleep. To clear my head and all the dust.

Oh, I wish [...]

Went up for sprints up on the oval next to work with Rish this morning – almost killed myself with the jog up the hill to get there! I could have almost done that a few times instead (and perhaps I should start doing that – go for a jog up the hill to work [...]

I don’t have photos of the gigantic Floriade tulips that are in Civic, though I walked past them today. I’m thinking next weekend for Floriade myself, it was gorgeous weather for it today (Still 22 degrees now!), is meant to rain tomorrow though…
Relaxed day, read the paper, did the washing, gymmed, shopped (piecing together a [...]

So, perhaps in order to “enjoy” the ANZAC long weekend, there’s some obligation to go to the dawn service, or at least some sort of service? I read the paper… there was ANZAC stuff there, that counts as at least paying attention to the day… though I was more interested in the Canberra leg of [...]

It’s technically still summer as they tacked an extra day onto the month (apparently, it’s the day to propose if you’re a woman)… but I was so cold last night! and it’s still meant to be under 10 again tonight, according to my weather wiget thingy… :\ Good thing the days are still warm…ish.
Apparently, also, [...]
