This week has shaped up to be a good one indeed!
- There are no more mice!
- Remember how my lovely new car was damaged when a rain filled gazebo collapsed onto the roof? Well, it’s currently in getting repaired! And I have a car provided by my insurer to drive for the duration, so I’m not even inconvenienced.
- I got to listen to myself on a podcast talking about the Australian Women Writers Challenge. So much fun and surprisingly, not embarrassing! You can listen at Australian Book Lovers if you’re keen on bookish podcasts.
- I got a new job, an ideal part-time one that I will be able to fit around my study next year. I start Thursday!
- My youngest son and I went to see John Butler on Thursday night. He was all shades of excellent and our seats were this close!

What I’ve been watching:
This was terrific, so much fun to watch. I loved Friends but have never rewatched it. This made me remember how much I used to love it and also reminded me of being young! So long ago…
Domina tells the story Livia Drusilla, the woman who became Roman Empress Julia Augusta. It’s terrific, an absolute must watch for history fans.

Aghhh! Maybe I shouldn’t have mentioned the podcast…😂
When I listened to it, I played it on Spotify through my TV. Really weird hearing my own voice coming out of my TV!
I’ve given The Shape of Darkness five stars. So good! She is awesome.

Congratulations on the podcast, and I agree, there ought to be no such thing as women’s fiction.

Thank you! And I finally read three books in the one week. That used to be normal for me but it’s been a long time since I’ve been able to achieve it again.

I enjoyed the Friends reunion as well – particularly loved the bits where they were rediscovering the sets, and hearing about the casting process.

Yes! I loved that too. All the reminiscing about their own particular memories and how some remembered scenes but others didn’t!
