So the past few weeks it’s been quite a rollercoaster for Melbourne/Vic as we were the only state that was recording high numbers of COVID-19 cases, with some community transmissions that were untraceable. There were 9 postcodes that were in lock-down, our suburb wasn’t one of them but our neighbouring suburbs were. As we were… Continue reading Back into lockdown..

2nd wave?
Just as I was writing easing restrictions in the last post, and it was due for opening up more venues this week, our state (Vic) had the highest no. of cases on the country past few days and the restrictions are back (it’s also winter) – limiting 5 in our house, 10 outside, and still… Continue reading 2nd wave?
Easing restrictions
So since mid May, the corona virus cases have decreased and the government has eased restrictions to Stage 3 where we can have gatherings of up to 20 people now, some places like museums, restaurants, zoos, gyms and some students have returned to school. Early May, we were still doing zoom with family and friends,… Continue reading Easing restrictions
Zoom parties and gatherings becoming a norm?
I’ve been meaning to write a lot more but every time I find myself about to write, something always comes up with the kids, housework or I’m just too tired lol! I think it was about 2 weekends ago, we had a friend’s baby shower over zoom! It was actually really good as the mother… Continue reading Zoom parties and gatherings becoming a norm?
Post Easter break
So the Easter break just went past so quickly, it didn’t feel like much of a break at all, but it had been good to have a staycation just be away from work.

On Good Friday, we streamed some church service, ate no meat, fish and lentil curry and just cleaned up around the house. I was also able to make… Continue reading Happy Easter!
Making most of the sun
While there’s not many warm days remaining before it gets cold and I have started my Easter break, I took the kids out for a picnic in the garden. It was such a lovely warm day! My toddler helped me with making blueberry muffins and the fairy bread, he also had fun chatting with the… Continue reading Making most of the sun
The staycation starts
So I’ve finally logged off work last night, after a full week of work, had our colleague’s baby farewell over zoom, and started the Easter holiday ‘staycation’ today for a whole week! So what do we do? Get our flu shots of course. It felt like such an accomplishment though, that our whole family made… Continue reading The staycation starts
Multi-tasking
What a week it’s been, have been so busy with work, kids, husband and guilty of too much social media following the Corona virus situation. It’s been the busiest time at work (working from home) you think you have more time not travelling to and from work and picking up kids from childcare, but Im… Continue reading Multi-tasking
Remain calm and be kind
I have been mentally and physically drained. Not only is it a busy time of the year at work, we’ve had to adapt quickly to a new way of working as well as managing the kids at home while I work. I’m not going to lie, it’s been an exhausting week, and when I turn… Continue reading Remain calm and be kind
