Random Wednesday afternoon bits...

After what seems like months of dramas to fill a position here, we finally have a starter.

She started today and while I was a bit unsure at first, she is lovely. Very chatty, has offered to clean my desk (anyone who has seen it recently will realise just how brave she is!) and she understands my directions! She's a traveller as well, which fits our department perfectly and will help pass those bored moments!

Am off to have my hair cut this afternoon and I'm really excited about it. No major changes, just a tad darker and shorter but I'm relishing this whole feeling girly thing. And F will be in the same time as me so lots of gossipping which is always fun.

Need a road trip soon, thinking I might grab some food from the markets on Saturday and head up to the Styx for a drive and get lost in some trees. Is funny that 6 months or so ago I thought I couldn't go back there but am really missing it, might go the back way to avoid the reminiscing that does my head in. Hopefully now it's getting cold there won't be too many tree hugger types around and I can enjoy the peace. Might fit in a swim, depending on how brave I'm feeling.

And it's finally caterpillar season again. My building is cream and at the moment is covered with little fuzzy black dots all over the external walls. Did find one of the little critters creeping through a gap in the window this afternoon and put him back outside. They're so gorgeous and inquisitive.
