Keeping busy whilst not working and have not really been looking for work but that journey is now starting. I have applied for a retail role.
What have I been doing?
Garden – pruned the roses except for the last 2 buds on the motherdaughter rose.
Plus I have been preparing the veggie boxes for the next lots of growth as well as clearing up some ground cover to add in another box.
I’ve also been looking at ways to extend the deck so that where there is a slight incline that becomes muddy and the dogs run through are no longer there.
What have I been listening to
“A playlist celebrating the music of The xx and its roots and branches – including those they’ve been influenced and inspired by.”
The list includes some of my faves from the 80s, 90s, 00s and 10s. And frankly, anything that includes Prince.
I first heard ‘The xx” at the Atrium Bar on 35 (bar on the 35th floor of the Sofitel Melbourne on Collins in 2011 – celebrating Tash’s birthday in style. Didn’t know what I was listening to but loved it. Thank goodness Shazam had been created and I could find out who this awesome band were.

What am I reading?
Saw a tweet from inc.com about “A Neuroscientist Recommends 5 Books to Help You Get Unstuck at Work – I already own 3 of those 5 books so I better get reading 🙂
What am I watching?
I don’t watch a lot of TV these days, despite having many of the subscriptions.
I’ve watched 1 episode of “My Name” on Netflix and look forward to watching more – https://www.netflix.com/au/title/81011211
I’ve watched 2 episodes of “Resident Evil” on Netflix and will watch more – https://www.netflix.com/au/title/80996532
But mostly I have been watching Women’s cricket – much of it late into the evening and early morning. I am so excited for the Commonwealth Games starting Fri 28 July to watch more cricket too. To that end – I have started a Discord server called All things Women’s Cricket which you are welcome to join. A woman I met on another discord server loves commentating the games so we started the server for her to continue to do that.
