The office organised a late sweep for today’s “Race that stops a nation”. I plonked in 2 bets but the draw came out pretty hopeless. “Tungsten Strike” is poised to strike, and “Mahler” would not I think, ride to a pretty symphony. So my attention remains with work, our current boarders and Howard v Rudd.
Work is becoming very busy, even busier than before. I feel less in control now, with events hurled at me endlessly and the things I want to do and the manner I want to do them in are consistently shoved aside, to take care of urgent tasks. Still, I’m just glad to be at work whenever I can, including bits of it on Cup Day!
We have a couple of boarders with us now, migrants who arrived just last night. They are setting things up for the rest of the family. It makes the home more lively and we are a bit more conscious of cleanliness, appearance etc and that’s a good thing. Hopefully they would not take too long to settle down or feel more at ease in this new home and country of theirs.
Howard remains a catcher-upper to Rudd, but while he appears to be closing the gap, it looks too laboured and may just be too little too late. I’m following events closely, just to see how Nalliah goes…(see earlier entry on Prophecy…)
