7 days at work…plus a few more!
So, I finished a 7 day stretch at work last week. The week wasn’t too bad, I worked with some great people. My main issue was the heat and humidity. It’s was 30-35°C all week, but also high humidity-70 to 80%. And most of my clients didn’t have the air conditioner on! I had sweat dripping down my face…. and it’s like… oh it’s hot isn’t it?
Nala had to get a tooth extracted on Monday. She has what is called Feline Odontoclastic Resorptive Lesions (FORL). It caused the tooth (more specifically the DENTIN) to erode. It is early stages at the moment-she doesn’t appear to be in too much pain. But if we don’t deal with it now, it could lead to her not eating, pain, and infections. She only has to get 1 tooth extracted. Or so I thought.
She ended up with having 2 teeth removed. The only pain was the cost. But she came home and has been doing well. She has dissolvable stitches, and I had to give her some pain relief for 3 days after-it made her a bit sleepy! She has to go back to the vet tomorrow for a checkup!
I had basically the whole of this week off! Monday and Tuesday were my weekend after working Saturday and Sunday, but Wednesday and Thursday off sick. I had a cough, lost my voice and felt like I was swallowing razorblades. I did go back to work yesterday (Friday). I am just resting today as I still have a bit of a cough.
I am on another 7 day stretch from Monday.

my 40th birthday
For my 40th birthday, I stayed in a tiny house. It was 2021, and we were in COVID lockdown. I can’t remember the numbers, but I couldn’t have a big party! So, I went to a tiny house! It was in Moss Vale in the Southern Highlands of NSW.
I knew I wanted to try something different for my 40th, and this was it! An experience!
My birthday is in January, so it was hot -it’s summer in Australia. The tiny house is set on an 80-hectare farm. The property is called “Kates Paddock”.
My parents and partner came down for a day to see the house. We had a wine tasting at a local winery-Southern Highlands Winery. We had lunch at Bundanoon Pub. It was a good day.
The bedroom was a loft. So up a ladder, and the bed was a mattress on the floor. It was a comfy bed. The only annoying thing was if I needed to use the bathroom at night!
I remember the weekend being HOT. And the tiny home had no air conditioning or tree cover for shade! I left a day earlier than I had planned.
But I did enjoy myself and made some good memories. I enjoyed the bottle of wine the girls at work gave me!
I have linked the booking site, but it looks like the owners of the house have changed the layout since I visited.
I am not sure if I would stay in a Tiny House again, but I know I will remember my 40th Birthday forever!
