Today I did a good job. I ran a creativity workshop with my CertIV guys. They seemed to like it. I ran through a whole bunch of stuff on creativity - did a bit of brainstorming and such like.
I think it helped them. I hope it did. They said they learnt a lot.
On other news, well I can see the end of semester just around the corner. Light at the end of the proverbial. I've been doing stuff for the PhD but it still needs loads of work.
I live in hope that I will make it.
Life is good. Seize the day!
If the weather is good we might go to Sculpture by the Sea tomorrow.

It seems it rains when I post
Well it's raining again. It seems that I only post on rainy days.
Yesterday was glorious. The air was warm, the sky was clear with overtones of summer. DJ did a double and Kate and I went to the shops.
Actually Kate wrote the shopping list: Chocolate sauce and sprinkles.
You've got to laugh.
We came back and had lunch, rested for the obligatory hour and headed for the swimming pool. We went in, it was around 30 degrees Celsius. Mad storm hit. Thunder lightning. Children screaming everytime a thunderclap struck. Had a bolt land very close to us - as seen through the bank of windows at the pool.
The pool was super crowded. I told Kate the joke about not swimming in the rain because you might get wet. Not sure she got it.
So after a couple of hours, time to go home. Temperature had dropped around 10 degrees. Brrrr. Now it's winter again. Go figure.
On other news, I'm ridiculously behind in the marking but there's some very good assignments there. Except gaming. Super worried about the level 2 gamers.
Hmmm.

Rainy long weekend
Wouldn't you know it. A long weekend drenched in rain. The spring has turned to winter again, and the warm weather has given way to drizzle and overcast skies.
It was wet yesterday. I decided to bake some bread, success after 20 years of trying. Hooray!
Took Kate for a drive in the rain and in a break in the weather, found a park in Hunters Hill by the water. Played on the rocks and watched the boats on Paramatta River sploosh the waves onto our rock. We then went to Woolwich Ferry terminal and watched a man fishing. He caught a fish and Kate touched it. It wiggled out of her fingers onto the decking. The man threw it back into the water - too small for anything.
This week I made Kate 3 dresses no less, and today, wouldn't you know it she insists on wearing one of my old tops. Go figure.
DJ worked all last night. He is lucky to be working in a football club the night they played the Grand Final. They lost. He is very exhausted.
I've been extremely tired. I have no idea why. I can't sleep at night and I'm too tired for anything during the day. I'm sure it will pass, like everything.
