While all comments are my own, none are likely to be earth shattering or particularly frequent.
April 3, 2025 ballots open for the Queensland Nurses & Midwives’ Union (QNMU) state branch elections.

My summer reading list 📚

I’m very much a non-fiction gal so have gone out on a limb with 3 highly acclaimed fiction reads.

It’s never a library visit without me digging through the John Le Carre section to find a gem I haven’t yet read. My fav author never fails me ✨

When the CM use the word “we”…🙄
I cringe 😩

I’m never sorry that the poor folk at the CM feel betrayed by Tory politicians … I’m more annoyed that they seek to express some collective sentiment like we’ve all forgotten the destruction right wing outlets caused during the ‘23 referendum 😥

Canberra - random Thursday night

Next up - Cold Chisel👏🏻

Seems I missed the camp chair memo … and I’m confused about whether I’m at a deck chair cinema event or rock concert 😳

Anyhow. Fun will be had.

I know my impact can be stronger - our public & global policy requires it more than ever.

This is the path I now chose to walk. ✨

To start this work I made a commitment to our #WHO western pacific region (WPRO) at our closing event in front of Ambassadors and country representatives:

“As a nurse leader, I commit to be an ally & an advocate for the protection of all our island homes across the western pacific region”.
