same can be extrapolated to aged care 😖😖

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

This is me right now and I haven't got a clue 🙃...help!

FWIW good to hear you did get to debrief with some friends💜 Clearly I'm an 'acquaintance', not a friend, but I've navigated 3 kidults and believe me, there were some doozy situations! But I didn't always handle everything well so have some hindsight. I'm here if you need to offload, go well 🦋

Today is National Exercise Day so here’s a list of my ten favourite exercises…

1. Jogging my memory

4. Jumping to conclusions
5. Skating on thin ice
6. Pushing my luck
7. Running my mouth
8. Kicking up a fuss
9. Catching forty winks
10. Throwing in the towel

I hope you slept well 🙏

So scrappy 😖 What's going on with their set shots? But yeah, we got there, just!

I am always so mystified when other parents don’t go to the library. What do you…do with them??? Mine killed two hours there today, and then we came home with 10 books each that is going to buy me hours of peace. Why are you not quietmaxxing your parenthood lol

So glad to see someone so beautifully articulate what I think about almost every day….

I was just talking to a friend today about Dolly Parton's Imagination Library - new books every month, totally for free, for kids ages 1-5.

My son was part of the program - this is a copy of the letter that came with his last book, right after his 5th birthday.

A different perspective.
Always helpful.

Best yard upgrade EVER 😃

Great analysis, 100% agree. So many lost opportunities from our collective Covid response, the many inquiries etc... have insights, however the age old CW vs S/T vs fear mongering stifles good outcomes. 6 yrs on, is there a central repository of data to inform public health responses? I fear not...

My life's a bit chaotic ATM, so these 4 days are a much needed catch up on life admin, Dad's 'deathmin' and some fam time. It's def on my 2027 dance card :)

Informed consent for medical treatment Informed consent means having enough information about a medical procedure to decide whether to have it done.

As others have said, it's largely about consent 👇 Sadly healthcare is increasingly litigious, so it may seem OTT. Wishing you both the best, navigating illness can is a lot 🙏 www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/health/servi...

And what a glorious day it is in #CBR today ☀️ I miss going / performing at the folkie 🙅‍♀️ Enjoy 💜🎵

Honestly, I think the US became a failed state when they decided guns were more important than their own children and we’re just watching the end.

Early Easter bonus column Long-time readers will know I don’t normally post a column on Good Friday.

My friend Jason, an actual war hero rather than the tiny dick cosplay fuckwits racing us towards Armageddon, guests at my column this week. It’s a day early to avoid ruining the chocolate festival.

This 💯

Go Pies! Ditto above swap bourbon for vodka 😜 Leftover chicken turned into pasta bake 😋 And god it's been a helluva week 😖
