@greenpea As for Dan Andrews outfits in navy blue, I’ll be honest and say I didn’t really notice it really. What I do recall is his precious North Face jacket during the height of the pandemic and endless lockdowns with his daily press conferences that he used to have with there being a joke around what it meant if he wore that jacket at certain times- something like lockdowns continuing past their time to end if I recall correctly. There was also a joke around him and a certain alcohol store as he said something about getting on the beers again which got brought up after he won the election on Saturday night. Talk about promoting alcoholism! It’ll be interesting to see what he does now he’s back in power for the next 4 years, especially with all the mental health jobs he mentioned earlier on in the year after the mental health royal commission findings came down and how he’s going to fix our public hospital system. Again, actions speak louder than words so it’s a case of wait and see what happens down here in Victoria.
@MDT I read that you’ve been having some trouble at work in some way. That’s not great to hear. I really thought you liked the job - in mental health? I hope it improves for you soon!
As for me, I’ve barely had 3 -4 hours sleep overnight with me finally agreeing to stay awake at 6:15 due to struggling with sleep. I was awake at 2:15 starting a new crochet granny square cardigan that I decided to do as it was messing with my brain and refused to shut down. Crochet items are now back in fashion but I refuse to pay for clothing when I can attempt to create it myself using my yarn supplies here at home. I’ve done 2 squares of 21cm wide and the cardigan will take at least 40 so I’ve got some work to do. I’m hoping to have it done by Christmas as a Christmas present for myself, along with working on my knitted blanket for my housemate which I’m also doing. At least my crocheting is helping to keep me calm as I’m meant to have an appointment with the community based psychiatrist today at the health centre but I’m not driving as I’m too tired so I’ll just wait and see if they call me at my appointment time, especially if my case manager remembers of course, which is unlikely knowing her. Besides, my GP doesn’t want me going out too much because of the COVID-19 wave that is happening here in Melbourne and says going to the health centre for 10 minutes is too much of a risk and they should be doing Telehealth for it instead. Again, I’ll wait and see what eventuates!
Take care and stay safe!
