Growth

It must be spring. Bert was excited yesterday to notice our first lime growing. The poor lime tree has struggled, unlike the giant lemon tree next to it so it’s great to see this sign of life. As for the mushies, I swear they weren’t there yesterday but when I went out the front this morning there they were. Must remove them before the kids decides to sample one.

Dude

Not only can Mr Henry dress himself way cooler than I ever would be able to it appears he now has the moves down too. Ladies, lock up your daughters.

Malloy And Son – Web Sites and Pizza Menus Since 2012

Normally I work alone, or with Bella sleeping at my feet as my only companion. Thanks to the teacher’s strike here in Victoria I have an officemate. Bert is keeping me company today while his teacher joins tens of thousands of others in the city. He’s been very busy this past hour peppering me with questions for his work – writing pizza restaurant menus. So if any of my clients suddenly find references to Meat Lovers or Vegetarian popping up in odd places this would be why.

Perks

Working for yourself you don’t get many perks but being able to be flexible with your time, within reason, is one of them. Today Rae came home early. I picked her up from the station and as she had a little time before her appointment I suggested lunch out.

Smart woman that she is, she said ‘sure’.

We popped on over to the local Sunshine Golf Club (which is in Derrimut). We got to sit on the balcony, look at the views over the course to the city and a have a chat while enjoying a great (and inexpensive) lunch. Half an hour later back to work and Rae is off but it left me smiling.
