At one stage Art Therapy attracted a $190/ per hour / per person remuneration with NDIS. I chose to work as a tutor at a community house to offer similar services in a group setting for much less. I sleep well at night.
Watching 4Corners on ABC about ADHD. Are we confusing ADHD with high IQ? What is “normal “? As a teacher I witnessed curriculum being changed to suit more cross curricular activities - all reducing focus on the subject being studied, thus reducing attention.
Tonight’s dinner (no photo as I forgot): Panko/parmesan/mint encrusted lamb chops with cos lettuce and a potato salad with chopped Kalamata olives, garlic,spring onions,parsley & homemade French dressing. Worth the extra effort.
Someone needs to brush up on his geography.😂
Who would have thought that JohnFarnham’s songs would be politically relevant in Australia today? 2 hearts & not going to live in silence 🙂
Finally found the packed up (from 2024) sound system… plugged it all in and it seems like the amp has blown a fuse. So many CDs that can’t be listened to. Not to mention the vinyls that have yet to be unpacked.. they’re somewhere else…

blue flower with green stamens and foliage surrounding it. Best known as Love in the Mist.
Flowers from the previous garden... Love in the Mist or Nigella.
All gone now as new owners are still renovating. Another skip in the driveway. Gelseminum (homeopathic remedy for flu) and mature tree ferns gone. Plus the Blue Moon rose at the front door. 💔💔Should have potted them all up. 🥲
Crochet child’s poncho in variegated green and purple yarn .
New project- same but different- 2 ponchos for twin granddaughters. I’m having fun varying the stitches and already they are looking quite different #crochet
Dear Angus. The only foreigners needing more cost/benefit scrutiny are the multinationals that take our resources and don't pay any tax.

6 petaled purple flowers of the Dendronium (native orchid)
Haven't had flowers on my plants for a while. They've been so busy multiplying that I think that's where their energy has gone to. Filled their pot to overflowing, so I'm going to harvest the excess, pot it all up in little pots and sell them.
Got the thermals on in Gippsland 😲
Been a weird energy the last few days. Feels heavy and waking at all hours with skin tingling. Then a random post on another platform mentioned the Schumann Resonance. Looked it up. Here's a link meteoagent.com/schumann-res...
Grey yarn using popcorn stitch to crochet a hexagon piece for a blanket/ throw
One of many hexagons being crocheted for a blanket in many shades of grey. #crochet #mindfullness
I’m Team Pope Leo.
And you don’t have to be a practicing Catholic to think — what the hell is wrong with the Pentagon’s mouthpiece?
This is repugnant.
Either a Blue Moon or Plum Crazy rose. Pale lilac colour and delicious perfume.
I want to get another of these once the winter bare rooted stock is available. Cuttings didn't survive the move. This colour would go well with some white roses against a dark grey wall. #roses
New anthem to reflect Australian authoritarianism.
Thinking of you both. Positive thoughts to a speedy recovery for Mrs K .
The entire 1983 Stevie Ray Vaughan ACL concert has been uploaded. I've queued it up to start on "Tin pan Alley," but the whole thing is worth watching --- after you "like" this post, of course. 😃

The Rushworth Easter Festival parade. Horses first, then the traction engines and other old vehicles. Yet another truck breakdown (like last year) blocking the way for the cars of various vintages.

Loving your playlist- many memorable songs relevant to Aussies!
My son briefly worked for this telco last century and was driven to a regional area to sell their plans. He left the telco on return and went to wok for Telstra.
Delicate white Bull Mallee blossom with a bee resting on it. https://euroaarboretum.com.au/wpcproduct/bull-mallee/
There are times when you can hear this tree before you notice the delicate flowers. Either the hum of bees gathering nectar or the shrieks of delight from various parrots. #flowers #bees #happiness

Delicate wind flower. Autumn delight. #flowers #happiness
