Well I'm up, and about to have breakfast.
Put my trip to Broadmeadow before 9am into the Transport Infoline trip gadget, and it came up with these. Somehow I don't think I'll take the one that arrives exactly at 9am - tempts fate too much!
In Roman times, this was part of series of celebrations related to Cybele and Attis, representing a cycle of death and rebirth.
Requietio (26 March) was a day of rest. People probably needed it after the previous day (Hilaria).
Sometimes, it's just as important to know when to stop and rest, as it is to make an effort. Take the time to rest and recuperate, and you might notice things, and enjoy things, that you missed before. And even if you don't, isn't it nice to take a break?
It was day 2 of my housekeeping training today (day 1 was yesterday, and I missed it because I didn't know I was "in" until the afternoon). We did Occupational Health & Safety today.
I knew more or less most of this stuff from when I did my library course, but it was more interestingly presented, and more relevant to the subject (housekeeping). In the afternoon we played a flash game called Virtual Office (see image below) and I found a new one called Hidden Hazards.
There was also a video about OH&S as well, but I was gob-smacked by sequences that showed chicken sorting in a hatchery.
On the way home I spent just over $100 on new clothes, bras, and socks. There's six days of practical and I need to wear black and have my hair tied back. I look on the purchases as an investment, but it's embarrassing to buy size 26 tops and 24 pants, and only 20B bras.
A face wax and a a shampoo's in order tonight as well. I'm going to have to "lift my game" as far as personal appearance goes. Being depressed a lot just seems to make things slip in that way.
