G'day all. So on top of everything that's going on, a good friend of mine died yesterday. She'd had a lifelong battle with illness and it finally beat her. Yesterday was a day of tears, but today I just felt flat. The kids get it (mum's sad) and let me wallow in bed a bit more than usual. Watched a movie, not sure why, called Arrival (on Netflix). Mostly was pretty boring until the last half hour or so where it suddenly changed gear and was mind-blowing. Tonight I'm going to watch *3 body problem.*Now to make pizza and eat leftover pasta that I made into a bake.
I'm so sorry to read that. Please take care.
