You know that feeling of something missing in your life/an emptiness of real purpose that the day to day chore-fest doesn’t seem to answer? I’ve never heard it explained like this before and it makes sense.

Everyone is busy, and there never seems to be enough time in the day to do what you want to do, let alone need to do. Still most people I know spread themselves thinner to put some time and energy into “their Calcutta” – and some even spread themselves across a few causes. This is why.

an approach to filling that empty feeling

There’s something a little disconcerting when the line at Bunnings warehouse is longer for a $2 sausage sizzle than it is to buy a badge or a wristband from our boys in uniform. The fact the armed services need to raise money to support the health and wellbeing of returned soldiers is insulting enough.

BEST SHOWBAG EVER. Thanks @karenskennarking for braving the crowds. #ekka #brisbane #mjolnir #thor
Hmmmm. Fleece. Geddit? A scammer with a sense of humour. #sigh
Full super moon in Capricorn. So if, like me, you’ve had more than a few days of winding up layer upon layer of feelings about workload and how much you carry, it’s time to let it go and say no. #selflove #balance #release #craziness
I needed this - steak, mushie, colcannon and greens with a little “Parisienne bu-terrrrrrr”. Fabulous! And the company matched perfectly. I didn’t photograph dessert - I ate it. Sticky date pudding with rum and raisin ice-cream. Delish.
Vive le Tour!! #couchpeloton #sbstdf #trolldj
Big sky today out west and lovely in the sunshine. #Queensland #winter #scenicrim #carneyscreek
Finally in the newsagents. #tdf #sbstdf #couchpeloton #bringiton
Thank you Haven. Haven. Coffee for Haven. Haven? Haven?
If you know, you know ❤️ #tpwk #harry
Late night staples when it’s winter in Brisbane. Tea and biccies. Crochet and cricket. #hugge #comfort #crochet #blanket #tea #biccies #lords #nzlvseng
Bedlam before. Bookcase after.
New moon in Taurus.
Back to work tomorrow after a much too short break. Prep to make things a little more pleasant. Anzac slice and banana bread. #podlife
I had a great night graduating Gin School. Brisbane Distillery at West End has a cool vibe and the class room is terrific. I made an ink gin with botanicals of agave, elderberry, green cardamom, orange blossom and wild rosella. Yum. #ginschool #gin #brisbane
I’d like to thank Australia Post for unknowingly supporting my effort to be an adult. To keep is in the wallets. To shred is in the postbox. #idontknowwhereigotitfromiswear #declutter #paperless #mortgageprep
Decluttering all the things and found a print out of this amongst my “things to journal about” prompt box. This birthday week I’m taking some time to break from the stress and grind of adulting. Nature is a great healer. Thanks for the reminder @chrisevans. Water the plants. Talk to the trees. Watch the birds. Support the bees. 💚❤️🐝🌻
Let’s go Australia. #ausvotes
Pretty sky. #scenicrim #queensland #nofilter
It’s been a week, hasn’t it? I’m taking the evening to rest. No chores. Nothing for me to have to/ should do - it can all wait til the morning. #rest #timeout #reset
