Things that have made me smile this week:

The bright orange lollipop person sign and witch’s hat down the end of my street.  Extensive tree pruning has been taking place in order to facilitate the replacement of a power generator (!!) near the park.  Predictably, there’s been chaos for the local traffic but the signs and smiling traffic controllers have eased the pain and made me feel a bit safer as I’ve driven and walked each day.

Afternoon running has been sensational of late.  There’s just enough sun, just enough warmth, a bit of a breeze when I need it most (at the halfway point of my route, just after the hill) and of course all the sights of the bay.  I’ve promised myself a takeaway cocktail from Catalina’s the next time I’m in the area….

How’s this for a nifty trick to get the condiment sachet that accompanies packet Mi Goreng to melt a little?  Works like a charm with a just boiling kettle.

I had to work the weekend but the chance to walk in the sun and work with some favourite team members made it more than bearable.

Another bonus of working weekends is coffee at Campo’s!

It was the little things this week.  I’m glad I survived the weekend at work.  That being said, I am so looking forward to the weekend coming up.
