 <\/p>\n

Melbourne had no new cases yesterday so today they’re out of lockdown. Even though I’m not in Melbourne, and only go to Melbourne at Christmas to GG’s darling relatives, I sobbed with relief. And pride. It’s the only place in the world where they did it, from 750 cases in early August to none! By lockdown, social distancing, mandated masks, contact tracing. In comparison, Belgium had 300 cases in early August and now has 18,000 today. A government-led huge success. \u00a0I feel that we did it, although I \u00a0just watched and worried. We’re all together in this. This virus is so infectious, it’s everyone’s worry. \u00a0Daniel Andrews, Victoria’s state premier, in my book is a hero. He’s not only firmly led the state, he’s not only fronted up to often ridiculing press conferences every day for over 100 days since June 9, but he’s withstood scathing criticism from business leaders and even the Prime Minister and his party all because of his mad obsession to put people’s lives before money.<\/p>\n

And my little life; I’ve felt very lethargic since I began the anti-colestrol meds….I worried that it was last Thursday’s night at the pub with my students. I feared I had the virus. But today, I feel like a new woman. It must’ve been the meds.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So I’m getting out my much-neglected novel,and working hard…. and then at low tide, at about 1 pm, I’m rowing to the point for T.<\/p>\n

That’s the plan.<\/p>\n

And about a week ago, Dy and GG and I followed much magpie squawking to \u00a0S and R’s place, and saw a baby bird – it’s mother had been scaring the baby goanna away from the nest.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I tried to imagine what it was like for this tiny thing- peeping out.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And stretching its skinny little legs<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And then a second fledgling popped out!<\/p>\n
