Rona, rats and an amazing local business discovery.
What day is it? Is it Friday? I have no clue!
It’s been a week, a week of isolation for me. Our dear friend ‘rona decided to hitch a ride home from Perth (if I do the math, which I must add, I’m terrible at- it’s Perths fault!) and stay a while. Thankfully she wasn’t too much of a bully and only dished up a mild case of the cold and the family have somehow avoided it so far.
Feeling back to normal now and ready to tackle a big week next week catching up on the work I’ve had to put on hold; nothing like starting 2024 with a bang eh? #facepalm
So what does it mean if I/you get sick before a session? We reschedule. The safety of your family is priority, especially when newborn babies are involved. It’s easy to joke that “it’s just covid, no big deal”, but when push comes to shove, it’s just not worth the risk. So if you get sick, let me know and we’ll find a suitable day as soon as you’re feeling better. Same applies for me.
And please don’t worry that we’ll miss the ‘newborn stage’ or good weather, life has a funny way of showing us that in the end, there was nothing to worry about and your session will be just as beautiful.
Rats, yep rats. We’ve had two show up in a sad state this week. I don’t think they’re coping with the heatwave and looking for water. It’s meant to be 38 today and hot again tomorrow and it’s been over 2 months, maybe three? (See, sh*t at maths) since we’ve had a decent downpoor. Our lawn is brown, our tank is low, like super low and even my poor agapanthus have doubled over in pain. They’re literally dying of thirst! Don’t get me wrong, I’m a HUGE summer lover, but I’ve got everything crossed that we have a cool change soon and a decent drenching on the poor, dry and dusty earth.
A couple of days ago, I stumbed across an amazing small business in the area and I just had to share. Mumma Feel Good is a small business run by a local lady, Grace, who is a nutritionist. Grace creates delicious and nutritious meals for new mums and delivers them to your door. I’m talking soups, curries, homemade sourdough, quiche, granola, caramel slice - the list goes on!
Oh how I wish there was something like this available when I was having my babes! What a gamechanger. You can also purchase gift vouchers too which would make the perfect baby shower gift to an expectant family. Go check it out!
Now, I’m off to clean my house and maybe hit the beach this afternoon for some salt therapy.
Have a lovely weekend!
