Have a house sit for 2 months. The incentive was being able to keep warm without having to worry myself sick about trying to find the $$s to pay the power bill.
Also means that I can get some part time work, the money from which does not get totally annihilated by the travel costs to same.
Those that 'know' me from many years ago will not be too surprised about what I am doing to raise some dosh. (No, NOT that, haha!!) Doing the baking for a cafe. Long time since I did any serious baking - the last time I think was when I was still cooking for the shearers way back in the late 80's. But surprisingly I am really enjoying myself. All the 'produce' is selling OK, which is the true assessment of the quality I guess. When people come back for seconds or ask 'have you any of the *whatever* you had last week' you know that you have something 'right'.
Other than that, I like many others, am awaiting the results from 1st semester exams.
Off helping to scan ewes tomorrow. It would be 'nice' if isn't raining (fat chance). Haven't really seen the sun for over a week now. I am like any self respecting merino - grey skies make me depressed (not really as far as I am concerned, but true for the merinos).
Already had two music sessions since I have been here (5 days). Having to work the callouses up slowly or I will be unable to play for a while. Hope to get in some busking to augment the commisariat, which is barer than Mother Hubbards these days.
