The above conversation made me realise I have worked(in the workforce) 16 years out of 35 possible, with 12 years being a carer. My last stint is coming up 8 years, it’s been a good balance

Only 27 years in this current joint, I’m not exactly sure how I’ve survived.

There isn’t a more accurate picture of what will happen when I go. Truth bombs everywhere.

My second stint at MEL airport, 16 years, comes to an end this Friday. No more shift work and working public holidays for me, yippee.

I would be coming up to 45 years this March…except for the fact that I was made redundant last June.

And I’ve discovered that you don’t get a job if you have no interest in looking for one.

How many years left?

I’m 20 years in. I’m punching out as soon as my super lets me.

I planted this tree in the road reserve below our house with my then 3 yo daughter, 19 years ago.

Speaking of trees this one Mum had bought and was growing in a pot, I then moved to front of the house when it was struggling, not long after she died I planted it here, it is amazing now

Off to a visit a distant relative later this week, she is my step brothers’ aunt and is 101. We only found out she was still in the land of the living and in care a couple of weeks. A visit is long overdue.

Making sure she remembers you in her will?
