WEEKLY STILLS


It was a bit of a funny week for me. I said goodbye to breastfeeding and hello to a clingy me and whiney baby. That's probably a bit harsh on us both but it just felt a bit much last week. There were a few other things going on and I had that whole self doubt and struggling for independence thing going on. It normally takes a couple of days to settle back into a rhythm after time away and I think that just combined with other issues. A bit of perspective was required and provided by my rock of a husband. Thank you rock. You rock. All is well and it was actually quite an adventurous week, capped off by a mission to Geraldton and back from Friday to Sunday. Needless to say we are all recovering from a bit of cabin fever this Monday morning and are enjoying stretching the legs. The trip was for a lovely wedding on a pretty property in Walkaway just out of Gero. The superstars Nana and Grandy travelled from Perth to meet us there and babysit the little cherub for the night. The bride looked beautiful, the lanterns were lovely, there were fireworks, hilarious and heartfelt speeches, delicious food and many glasses of champagne to celebrate. Although cooped up in a car for 22 hours all up is not ideal it sure was worth it. I love the changing landscape along that route. The Pilbara red dirt transforms to sand and ant hills and there's lots to see; bushes and shrubs littered with cattle and goats, scavenging wedge tail eagles having their lunch by the side of the road and pastel pinks and blues as the sun sets on our stunning state. We're pretty blessed to live in this place. Here's to a happy week ahead!
