Connecting moments in my peninsula world, my Australia and beyond...Whatever speaks to my thalassophile soul in these tidal days...
It's a snow day for parts of Victoria...So much chilly but atmospheric romance in this scene...Especially love the sign on the right 'Snowline Fruits'... synchronicity... https://t.co/YxkYBUbpbY

In fact... Marie Curie herself and all her clothes, furniture, books + notebooks and personal effects will be contaminated for c.1500 years. That is so confronting...https://t.co/SLEsLXsiaC https://t.co/IFIxYoWXOK

The town came into existence in 1875 and was named after Quorndon in Leicestershire.Quorn may be a small 1875 railway town in South Australia (just over 1,000 pop.), but it's big on movie fame. It featured in Wolf Creek, Gallipoli, The Shiralee, The Sundowners, The Lighthorsemen, Sunday Too Far Away, The Last Ride and Robbery Under Arms. https://t.co/3eLooMJvia

I relate...While some are out of work, I have remote learning with v.v. high demands...I feel stuck to the screen. I feel like crying but no time...collapse at the end of the day. I 'borrow' time to write+shop. Going out=fear. But working on it, with my little Shaddie's help. pic.twitter.com/T4uDw8gDQZ

Saturday early - Great wet+cold morning to be out...No sarcasm meant because for once, I was less afraid of going out...Less panic rising...less urge to run away...I shopped at the chemist (photo in carpark below)+shopped at Dromana Hub +OK... Why? Damned fear won't beat me... pic.twitter.com/0lD9yZJOfL

Admittedly the Phoenix Chamber Choir in Canada may be aiming at teachers who struggle along with remote learning, (with apologies to Billy Joel), but I am quite sure there are others out there who relate.
