Bonus

It's ANZAC day here today, where we thank all the Aussie and Kiwi soldiers who have served our county so well.

The mumster was thinking there were a couple of bonuses to her week of nightshift:

  •  That the day turned a bit cooler, so I came and snuggled with her during the day.
  • Cos it is autumn, it is easier for her to sleep during the day.  Sooo much harder in the summer.
  • She's not very hungry on nightshift.  A meal at 5pm after she wakes up, and a small muffin before she goes to sleep and a bit of fruit imbetween keeps her going.  Her trousers feel a bit loser which is good.
  • She gets to get up at 3pm and watch the real Housewives of NY - unbelievable how grown woman act worse than 12 year old girls.  Like a train wreck - mum can't look away.
  • She gets a chance to potter in the garden for the afternoon.  When she works during the day, it is now dark so early, by the time she gets home.
Hope you have a nice day everybuddy.

  5. Happy ANZAC Day!

    I can't watch any of those realty-type shows. I think I'd rather poke my eyes out. srsly. Funny how we all have our passions and how different they can be!

    Enjoy the weather. Autumn is my all-time FAVE season, although we hardly get any here at the Swamp.

    big hugs xoxo

  6. I hope all your veterans and serving servicemen know how much they are appreciated. Canada's Remembrance Day is in November - in our autumn - so it's frosty for the veterans to turn out for their services, too. I wish all their comrades Down Under well on their day.
