One out of three stressful things done - training and exam (that I didn't study for at all, but I use the stuff frequently at work and excel at multiple choice exams so I'm confident I'll pass).

Also finally got my licence photo taken after procrastinating till the last minute. Don't want to acknowledge how much older and more stressed out I look after ten years ๐Ÿฅฒ my old photo is one of the best ID photos I've ever had.

Next up: last day at lesser job tomorrow with lots if tidying up and handovers. And thirdly on Wednesday, big uni meeting for which I have not prepared at all and am more anxious about than today's exam, but I simply have no energy to look at today. I will not overpush myself. I'm going to go for a walk now with my journal and find some grass to lie on while it's still bright, although lomgcat is absolutely lovin' on me right now and mashing her face into my jaw.

Praying for some restful sleep tonight.

You can do the things! ๐Ÿ’ช

My somehow my last licence renewal used the old photo which is awesome. I am so young in it now! I don't want to give it up either.

My last licence renewal did too, but it's now been over ten years so it's photo change time.

I've just walked myself to a park with heaps of gum trees and although I can hear the freeway in the background, it's still been so good to kick my shoes off and lie on the grass, feet touching the earth, looking at the leaves in the sky and hearing the commotion of garrulous lorikeets and kookaburras. I love the weather on days like this. I think I should organise a day up in the hills on the weekend with the other day set aside for a massive house clean

That sounds delightful
