Reality

Yesterday I was back at work.  It is really rough going back after a few weeks off.  After I spent the best part of yesterday trawling through my 300 odd emails, today my brain wants fun and it is not impressed at having to concentrate for any length of time on something not of its choosing.  We have the really busy time to look forward to, as well.  From October to March it is going to be full on.  So I feel sorry for myself and I am happily wallowing in it. 

I do like my job….I just feel like I am missing out today.  I don’t have a window near my desk, if I did I would be wistfully looking out all day today…

I have to tell myself – there are people present, don’t fart, burp or groan, and try to get something done!

There is a lot of work to choose from…

Roughing It

My beau and I are planning a trip to windy Wilson’s Prom in two weeks.  It will be our last trip in the borrowed campervan, before we drive it to Bryon Bay at Christmas for it to be sold.  It’s a bit sad that we won’t have it any longer.  We have taken it away a few times, but not as often as we hoped.  It is hard to get away as beau works Saturdays.

 

Here is a shot from when we took it to the Grampians.

 

 

 

 

We are planning to spend two nights at Tidal River, walking, having barbeques and probably getting very cold.  Then we are off to Fish Creek to stay in a cottage on a farm.  Apparently there is organic food available in town and the Great Southern Trail passes nearby so we will think we will take our bikes.

There is an indoor heated pool and a DVD player in the cottage.  We are planning to get some sort of horror set on a farm to watch on our first night.  Beau thinks either that or ‘Psycho.’  Might be romantic in a weird way – clutching to beau in fear!  Should be fun.  Most of my time is going to be taken up with my date with Nicholas Nickleby.

 

Not planning on much else for the break.  Thinking I will run errands that have needed to be done, catch up with people, do some writing, and spend at least one day in my pj’s watching DVD’s.  Oh, heaven.
