Been thinking and thinking and well I’ve gone and done it. I’ve applied for a maternity leave cover for 12 months.
With hardly any tour guiding jobs I’ve gone back to protect my day job. This position will fill in my knowledge gap and give my resume an impressive add.
It’s two days a week to add on to my 1 day. I want to save up money for a deposit for a house. Either that or upgrade to a two bedrooms.
Anyhow the deed is done! Fingers crossed! As for us Victorians? Our lock down starts again today for another 6 weeks. A real bummer!
This time the whole country has ostracised us and have closed all borders. We are in it alone.
They are much stricter this time. There are road blocks out of Melbourne as the regional centres are still unlocked. They don’t want it to spread to our regional cities.
Mr Wanderer rang this morning. He contemplated too late yesterday to go to Bendigo to sort out his rental despite me hinting for him to go early.
He’s now grounded at home which is not such a bad idea since there’s load for him to do at home.
Stage 3 lock down means there are only 4 reasons for us to leave home.
1/ food and supplies
2/ school or work
3/ care giving
4/ exercise
Partners can still visit each other but that’s it.
It’s going to be a long 6 weeks!
I had to read that first sentence a couple of times because I was certain you were going on maternity leave and thus were planning on a baby.
If you were in the US, roadblocks wouldn’t exist, no real lock down things would. It is all on your honor or whatever you want. Sometimes I wonder about those of us here in the USA….

I’ve been reading about Melbourne and the new lockdown. They’re starting to talk about that for certain places in the U.S. too. Like everything here, though, it’s fodder for people to complain.

Yes..I’m tired of it though. We hear about your numbers too.
