I've been in my job for a whole month already!
In my latest newsletter I reflect on all the transitions I've had to make in the last four weeks.
New job, career, and pace. Exciting research to plan. An ADHD brain to pacify.

I'm at McDonald's because my unique lactose + paprika intolerance is never catered for. Is vegan food that bland that it always has to be spicy?

We got a new rescue cat on Saturday. This was her on Sunday afternoon. Think she's settling in well.
Meet Coco. She's 2, tiny, and was found on the streets.

I've started 'enjoying' our games much more since I cancelled subscriptions, and instead listen to them on the radio whilst doing the ironing. Much better use of my time (and money) #coys

Whenever it floods, the UK media uses images of York. It is meant to look terrible, shocking, scary.
But this is an image of resilience. You can see this scene every few weeks in winter! This is York being flexible, a flood being inconvenient but not damaging. York gets on with it.

Raiding the University library to research and Environmental Hazards module.
Could I subject them to my own (bleak) special interests... probably not a good idea.
