Thank you for bearing with me,
While I put a big pause on work life. In the last 5 weeks I've completely slowed down mentally and physically.....
I've literally been like a slow moving ship, taking it all in and stopping often to refuel. I’ve completed a heap of home projects that have been sitting undone for the last three years. I’ve been sleeping with the door open. I’ve spent an hour in the garden on most days, and I’ve learn that a garden, especially in this season, is something you’ll never be on top of. There hasn’t been a lot of podcast listening, but there has been heaps of writing. There’s been lots of medical commitments for the family and just last week we celebrated our 10 year anniversary. Yay to us, it’s been big.
I’ll be slowly making my way back to peak productivity over the next few months, these newsie’s may seem a little light on but I’ve missed chatting to you here, so I’ll be back with you on Sunday’s in the best way that I can. Again, thank you for being patient with me! Sxxx
Podcast playlist
I listened to Nora Jones’ podcast at random while walking the flooded river at Yass the other day. I’d forgotten how beautiful Nora Jones’ voice is. A beautiful way to expose some new music.
The importance of being farm fit on A Friend of Mine podcast.
Loved this chat with Holly Ringland, author of the The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart via The First Time podcast. It, of course, prompted me to sign up to her journal.
