Hope

I hope I can get some stuff done today. I hope that this feeling of restlessness inside of me is appeased by something. It’s another rainy day here in Brisbane. I’m at home with Julius and we have no plans to go anywhere. I have a dozen things I could be doing, a handful of…

I am here…

I love that song by P!nk. It’s kind of my jam. I turn it right up if I’m at home on my own sometimes. It’s also a really good rate of beats per minute for doing squats to. That’s my PSA for today. You’re welcome. May we pretend that it hasn’t been nearly three weeks…

Robotics et al

It has certainly been an interesting two weeks around here. After my last blog post, I got so many encouraging comments, on line and in person, and so much support. Thank you everyone! I feel as though I have caught up again and am in a much better headspace to keep moving forward with my…

It’s Diablo time

So it must be time to blog! Gosh it’s been a while since I’ve patronised Mr Henderson and partaken in an ice-cold Diablo Ginger Beer on a hot Friday afternoon, and boy have I missed it! It’s been an interesting start to the school year, with tonsilitis, a subsequent Covid test (-ve of course), homework…

Quinny is 8!!

Eight years (and one day) ago, this little bubba stole our hearts. Quinn is so many things to so many people. She is loyal, caring, funny, stubborn, strong willed and very clever. She asked for a horse ride this year, and not being one to do things by halves, we had a horse come to…

It took about 20 photos, but here’s a pretty good one of the four of them!! Julius officially in kindy, Quinn grade 3, Chance grade 5, Darby grade 1. How the heck did that happen? I tell you what, it would be nice if they all liked the same things for lunch!! The only thing…

That’s a wrap

In true Domagala family style, my birthday lasted a whole week. Woo! I had a couple more cards arrive in the mail during the week, some belated, yet still very much appreciated birthday wishes, and today I received what I can assume to be my final gifts. The flowers are from my good friend and…

41 in ’21

I’ve just spent half an hour with online tech support to get my blog all updated and working again! So let’s talk all things birthday week! After working on assessments for nearly two full days, (and submitting everything!) I was really ready to have a drink or two with my wonderful crew of school mums…

The Brick Pit

Everything in life is a process. Most of what we do is automatic, with processes that have been fine-tuned over time for maximum efficiency. Then there are the jobs/tasks/self growth opportunities that take time and thought and commitment, and, more often than not, outside help. Our Lego collection reached a stage about a year ago…

A job well done

Back in September, I got louvres put into my dining area, and new windows in my living area. Once the job was done, I thought it was a little strange that the architraves were left unpainted. But I honestly, genuinely didn’t mind that much at all. I LOVED my new windows, and the functionality was…
