Triple treat

How nice would it be to laze in a bedroom like that?

Mine looks like a bomb site at the moment because I haven’t had a spare second over the past week to do anything other than fling clothes on and off.

I made it through another loooooooong work shift yesterday – finishing up at the Vivid Sydney control centre at 11pm.

It was a super quiet night, no lost children or ambulances called.

In a way, it’s more tiring to sit for six hours watching empty screens. I passed the time by catching up on some online training, so my boss will be super thrilled with me.

About the biggest highlight of the night was when dinner was served …

Party pies AND chicken on a stick. Winning!

By the time I got home and walked the dogs it was midnight – way past my bedtime.

But my body clock invariably wakes me before 6am, no matter what time I head to bed.

I just need to make it through work today and I get a whole three days to rest. Can’t wait!

Sadly there will be no DD to relax with as he’s traversing Europe attending conferences.

I vaguely considered belting up the highway to Newcastle, but I don’t think my body and exhaustion levels can take it.

I need to make the trek soon.

In the meantime, I won’t know myself after getting a whole three days off with no plans other than a walk on Saturday morning.

I didn’t have a chance to blog yesterday because my sister stayed a second night and we grabbed fish tacos at a local Mexican place and have a laugh.

The apartment will be very quiet without my sibling and her two extra dogs in it!

But I am glad to have three days to recalibrate, get some groceries, do some washing and finally unpack from last week’s trip to Melbourne.

Have a lovely long weekend and I will catch you next week.

Oh and let me leave you with this unfortunately not fake news …

Yup, America’s counter-terrorism chief is a 22-year-old with a resume lacking almost any experience in the field.

Good luck America. I’ll keep my fingers tightly crossed for you.

Song of the day: Bjork “It’s oh so quiet”
