Health
I haven't walked the last two weeks as its still dark out at 6am now and its quite cold now of a morning. I finally jumped on the scales yesterday and it was not good news! My weight is up to 97.8 kgs - too much stress eating going on. So diet and exercise is high on the agenda this month for me.
Work
Not good, another good work friend has taken several months leave and yesterday yet another called in to my office to tell me they are leaving soon. I took some time off in March and have more time off in a few weeks.
I've started making plans for how I can do some work online next year and am about to start a group course to learn about online business set ups. With the Liberal government winning our state elections the chances of redundancy are higher for me - they just want to privatise everything unfortunately.
Where I am temporarily located at work I don't have easy access to a kitchen so I have got back in the habit of buying a coffee 2-3 days a week and chocolate bar or pkt of chips now and again, something I haven't done for a very, very long time - suddenly there is $20 - $30 a week just wasted. So that stops today - I'll fill up a thermos to take from now on.
Home
I did a bit more decluttering and have a few more bags to go to the op shop. We've got the walls in the lounge/dining room prepped and ready to paint. The dining room will become my new office so I can work online. Last weekend after all the rain here we weeded one of the garden beds. The last few days I've been doing some extra cooking for the freezer - bone broth, soup, muffins and meals. We got quotes for solar power but haven't made a decision yet. We're still waiting on a plumber to come & fix the taps.
