Grr lj ate my last post.
Here's a photo my friend N sent me of the CBD under water - here's what we meant by "so much water around":
The aftermath of this kind of event, now called a natural disaster by the Premier, is interesting to watch. People seem so much closer to each other - there's an ease of conversation because everyone has an account to retell. And everyone genuinely wants to hear it, to gauge how others' experiences compare. It's rare to find anyone who has weathered the storm without damage of some kind. People seem kinder, more understanding - giving people more slack. And everywhere I go, there's carpet roped off, drying out.
My yoga teacher has cancelled tonight's class due to storm damage - just the gardens, thankfully, and not the studio. I shall spend the evening neck deep in taxes. I want to report real progress in terms of passing milestones by the end of tonight.
I'm suffering with sinus symptoms after my one bowl of icecream and some milk chocolate from two nights ago! I guess this dairy free thing is here to stay. (*sobs* but i lOVE cheese!) The good news is that the lactose free milk didn't affect me like this last week, so that's at least something. And a big shout out to dairy free kosher dips, cause they rock!
