It is winter.

Indeed. It has felt mild to me so far, but I have heard a few people say how cold it is. Maybe I am not feeling the cold yet. I have always felt that it is coldest in early September, when there are fine days so it is very cold during the night. When I used to start work at 6am I would wear three layers of clothing plus a jacket on top, shorts under my work pants, with gloves and a beanie to complete the fashionable outfit. ;)

We got our cat Liam sterilised so now he has to stay in for a few days and he doesn’t like it at all. He now has a tattoo in his ear - a circle with a line through it. I am glad he is sterilised now because last week he sprayed inside our pantry as if to say, “everything in here is mine” . It really smelled bad and took me a while to wash it out properly. GA kept saying he couldn’t smell anything.

Last weekend we went with a few people from our Asocial Group to play Q-Zar, which is laser-tag. I had a fun time and I even had the highest score for my team. I think that was because I kept shooting the other team’s base. I would like to do it again but next time I would wear my clear glasses as my Irlen ones are too dark and they reflected light in a strange way. During the games I would run somewhere…straight into a wall. So I was surprised that I did well. I scraped my knuckles on a few walls and hurt my toes. I am just glad that I didn’t bump my nose.

I am now working at the Disability Services Commission a few hours per week. I have been sorting out their mail and battling their photocopier. I have also had to make a few phone calls but I think they went ok. I don’t sound like other people on the phone.

GA and I are still doing the horticulture course. We have planted the seedlings in the vegetable patch and mulched it. There are four regular people in our class. I wish the others would make up their mind as to whether they are staying in the course or not. It shouldn’t bother me, but it just feels odd that I don’t know who turns up from week to week. No consistency, always different. That aside, I am enjoying the course and learning new things such as what elements are important for plants to grow, what different fertilisers contain, etc. I am also taking photos week by week to track the progress of seeds we planted. Some did not grow at all and I am wondering what happened there! It is also planned for us to have an excursion to Burswood (casino and convention centre) to see what goes into the maintenance of their massive grounds. I am really looking forward to that. Excursions are fun. :)
