Having fun and learning along the way
When you work for a great boss!
After a long gruelling month (year!) it was a lovely surprise to receive these beautiful flowers this afternoon with a thank you card from my manager. A gorgeous perfume is filling my loungeroom and I’m still smiling
🔥🔥 HOT OFF THE PRESS 🔥🔥
“King of the forest, old Silverback, fell down with a thump on the soft mulch-littered ground, and the whole forest held their breath. They realised something was wrong.”
A teaser for my children’s short story which I am SUPER excited to announce is now finally available in print as part of the Sutherland FAW anthology Webs of Life; a collection of short stories written by the many talented writers in the group.
It has taken several months of planning and organizing, and we can’t wait to officially launch the book at our Writers Unleashed festival on Saturday 17th August at Gymea Tradies in Sydney.
Also had my first taste of a writer’s reading yesterday. My workplace organised a BBQ and had me read the story. Was nerve racking and exciting at the same time. Happy to say the story was well received with lots of laughter and congratulations from everyone.
Enjoyed sharing that part of my life with my colleagues. To work at a place that encourages and supports employees in a life outside of work is heart-warming.
I’m feeling a bit more like a real writer today and it feels damn good.
If you would like a copy please DM me. Pre-orders before the festival at a discounted rate of $12 plus postage.
For some reason yesterdays post didnt process. Maybe my cold infused brain mucked it up. So here you have two for one
Today’s positive 2/9….waking to the sound of rain and being Sunday knowing I can stay in bed. Best feeling
Today’s positive 3/9 …working for an understanding boss who doesn’t insist on work getting done when you are not well.
Today’s positive….one of those days where everything was an uphill battle. Except we still managed to destress and have fun during our lunch break at work. The silly banter and laughter made the working day so much easier. Good workmates make all the difference.
Today’s positive…enjoying lunch in the winter sun with work mates in our local park chatting about weekend plans and upcoming holidays.
Today’s positive….staying after hours at work on a Friday and realising you don’t really mind. The beauty of working with people you like.
It is so good to be part of a workplace that has fun and get along in spite of a heavy workload. Passionate people working as one team. Love it. The working day is such a big part of our lives its important to enjoy it.
Joined a workmate on a lunchtime walk today and we acidentally stumbled upon this park oasis close to our industrial neighbourhood with a large pond and winding paths amongst large trees. A nice retreat from the stresses of our working day.
It was the big office move today. In spite of a slightly longer commute it was great to be with the rest of my work mates. Lots of fun banter and laughter.
Enjoyed a day with the rest of my workmates at head office. Even though Im thrilled to mostly work out of our local office only 3km from home I do enjoy my days with the rest of the team.
