sunshine

Hey there crazy kids! The sun is shining in Byron and I finally feel like I've got the energy to enjoy it. Five days straight of live festival music, and all the drinking that accompanies that 12 hour day sure takes it's toll. Not to mention the random nights afterwards spent at the pub on the beach with even more live music and an appearance by the cat empire busking on the street. Cocktails, beer, wine, beer, cocktails, beer. Ahh, this is the life. Coming home to wintry conditions isn't too appealing, but back I will be on Saturday night. And then ready for the beer and burn of anzac day. I bought a badge bobby, you'd be proud of me. See you all soon.

Opportunities

My JoeyJoJo is coming tomorrow! Yay. It's sad that she's coming under such heart wrenching circumstances. But there's one of these opportunities that we can see instantly. Unfortunately I won't be around for much of her three week stay, 'cos I'm going on a holiday of my own, but I'll just have to make the most of our time when she is here. Can't wait. See you soon!

From great change and endings, come new beginnings and opportunities.

Yesterday moring my Mum's dad died of a massive heart attack. He was walking to see the nurse, to have his dressing changed on the skin cancer had just had removed from his back, when he collapsed on the footpath. The village called us to say he had collapsed, but it wasn't until my Mum arrived that she was told he was probably dead before he hit the ground. It was a huge shock to all of use, even his doctor. He was a very fit and healthy man, albeit at the age of 86.
