I don't know if I'll ever fully grasp this whole southern hemisphere season thing. lol. It feels more like August than March. And that makes sense with the way the seasons run. It just always feels strange!
Life down under has continued to stay super busy! Two weeks ago we participated in the color run. A fun 5K run/walk. It was a lot of fun and it hit for me on the first day that I had felt ok after battling an ear and sinus infection the week prior. The very next day, Wayne and I were going to the grocery store and when I got out of the car, I suddenly was having pain walking. Ended up at the hospital in the after hours clinic (because the emergency department was CRAZY!) and the diagnosis was a probable stress fracture. Sometimes it becomes quite frustrating.. feeling like it's always something. It's like my body is super defective. It seems like there is always something. And it's not something really new. It seems like it's always been this way. Like I'm just a natural born defect. I'm totally clumsy and a klutz. But even being a klutz doesn't always explain these things (like the ear infection). For example, today I woke up with my right hip and right upper back really playing up on me. What gives.. and when does it stop? I'm sure I've had enough aches, pains, and illness to last five people their entire life!! I'm just annoyed by my body.
Work has been busy, but good. I feel like I'm really growing into the role, but I'm realistic and acknowledge that I have so much to learn. There are still some days, or moments in some days where I think I've made a huge mistake (see prior blogs about this one!) but those are less and less as I am coming to terms with the fact that I'm so use to working in a job where I knew what was going on and what needed to be done. Now, however, it's a WHOLE new ball game. I don't know what I will encounter on a day to day (or even hour to hour) basis. As soon as things go well and I think "hey! I understand this!" The work Gods LAUGH and say "haha.. watch this!". But I'm realising more and more that the way you approach it makes all the difference. I can easily admit it's a much more challenging position than I ever realised.
Wedding plans are coming along. Continuing to slowly work on the things to do list. My best friend and Maid of honor booked her flights for the wedding this week so I'm really excited on that! A little less than 7 months until the big day!!
Last weekend we bought a thermomix!! If you don't know what this is, google it. It's awesome. Well, the cost ($2,000) isn't awesome.. but the rest is amazing. I swear I don't even want to eat out anymore because the food is just THAT easy and good!
I guess that's all I have for now... until next time!!
