Not a great day in Welly today, so I’m watching the #NZLvsWI #testmatch from the couch in a fluffy blanket burrito.
Currently at tea so here’s a shot from the teatime highlight reel.

More #gettingshitdone before my physio appointment for this dumb pinched nerve. Going to do two hours on here so that it’s firing off when I get to physio and we can pinpoint the problem more easily.

Righto, off for a walk, shower, then onto the big job: Start on the roughly 4-6 weeks of relief for five classes I haven’t even met yet. Oh joy.
My #anklefusion is still over a month away but I need to #getshitdone before Xmas so I can stop fretting about it and enjoy my Summer!

Can confirm that my #SecretSantaAoNZ #quilt is not only gorgeous but a lovely warm layer for a good long sleep (it was a little nippy last night in #Welly).
9.5 hours, baybeeeee! I needed that.

Loving the local references in my latest read!
Also I literally drove my motorbike under that very canopy yesterday on the way to grab some homework, so I’m looking forward to the scene where they do the same :)

* Reliever has been sourced for my surgery leave in Jan. Gutted to be missing the start of year but it is what it is.

School’s out so it’s time to escape to #martinborough with the hubby and some friends.
A bunch of them are heading off for a 15 km walk but my ankle will not be up for that, so I guess I’ll have to just eat my omelette then go drink coffee and read in bed. It’s a hard life.

Sitting in my car trying to summon the spoons to attend the end of year do. Fighting the urge to go home and just burrito in a blanket.

@catconnor.bsky.social I’m loving your books! I’m on the second one now. The UH references are so great and Nana reminds me so much of my mum who used to live in a retirement community.
(Also I taught CI-H a few years back. Yours, right?)

The short version:
I’m getting my long-awaited ankle fusion on Jan 21!!!
The long version (strap in!):
In 1992 or so, (age 15/16), I jumped off an Army confidence course thingy from about 2m high and rolled my ankle on the landing. It made a loud pop/crack and was very painful.

Hmm I just got home to a SECOND parcel from my #secretsantaaonz and thought maybe I’d been allocated to two people?
After some detailed forensic analysis of the handwriting on the parcel though I can assume that they were waiting for something to arrive and sent it later. I feel very spoiled!
