O god, day 73 already. I was supposed to be updating this every day since arriving in Melbourne, 73 days ago. Hey I’ve been busy! Better late etc…
Two months later, and there’s not a lot of sign of any rhythms in place yet. Back at the beginning, it was going to go in with Zee to work, then write in the morning at some inner city café, then maybe swan around Melbourne learning its artistic and historical delights. Then back home to clean, make a lovely dinner for Zee for her to simply absorb without effort after a hard day at work, with matching G&T. Yeah.
It turned out that getting the house together was initially time consuming. It was in good condition when we came, but the various tweaks that we agreed as the weeks went by all took time and effort (and multiple bunnings visits). I’m only just getting to the point where the garden isn’t an overgrown jungle (although I have a large panel to mount this morning, that will take a while). All this is complicated by the fact that I am below the median in growing and maintaining houses, and never completely at home with any power tool. That said, I do get by, and things get done, but at a leisurely pace..
