and the long day wanes...

There is a beautiful serenity here...
a dreamscape on all levels...
from the dog...round the dog...about the dog...
from the words...round the words...about the words... https://t.co/RKhxyAA9rv

new aboriginal flag...

So love the design of this flag... There's a 'heaven' and an 'earth' here and the colours appeal to the spirit... https://t.co/5tdjoYAazL pic.twitter.com/OenI8o59M4

student email...

Student email requesting I view his leadership application - You have always been able to rip my work to shreds and be very critical which believe it or not, I value and appreciate very very much. I don't think I'd be where I am today if it wasn't for you yelling YUCK at my work.

I see new leaves bravely waving
I hear garbage bins falling #haiku

tomorrow not so far away...

And maybe too soon...like tomorrow too soon...Back to remote learning duties tomorrow, starting with all-day PD's and then Tuesday I have back to back lessons + after-school meeting...I've heard that shock treatment works quite well... https://t.co/QMIZaFdM7a

what PM????...

My only consolation is that Victoria is not the only state neglected. Only his home state of NSW had passing 'politically biased' support anti-Victoria. Does he know about WA, NT or TAS???? I'm beyond anger,+ would rather constructive energy diverted to supporting our premier.

encouragement...

Yes...We Melburnians are very tired...I have morning sparks, but seem to get tired very easily for no particular reason...or so it seems...Motivation = fluctuates + low... Perhaps some of that has to do with more remote learning ahead... Hang in girl... We're tough... https://t.co/tnKuGcHMwE
