Coming to the end of another year.

Here we are at the end of another year. It intrigues me how we use the calendar to define an arbitrary stock-take of our lives. That said, it’s summer here in the southern hemisphere, and a lot of us are on holiday, which makes it the perfect time to reflect on the past twelve months. Here’s a summary of some of 2023’s significant events:

The best thing that happened

My daughter bought an apartment.

Most difficult challenge

Helping my daughter through the very convoluted load application process.

Biggest decision taken

To move into an apartment on my own.

Travel

Singapore, Sydney, and Melbourne (all for work).

Best show

WA Ballet Echo’s of Van Gough. Truly inspired choreography and costuming.

New things

Joined Toastmasters - amazing!

Looking forward to…

2024 - Year of the Dragon. Buying an apartment. Getting better at public speaking.
