Wide blue sky

What a joy to see the sun!
In my first week back in Brisbane I saw family, friends, the beach and the optometrist; I found it quite difficult to see with so much light and had to buy sunglasses. And, although nobody can notice it, I have lost that bluish tinge my skin had aquired through lack of sun exposure.
I've had my neice and nephew for sleepovers (multiple) at my place and at the beach. I even did running on the beach and swimming with them. (For the benefit of readers from outside Queensland, locals don't swim until November - it's too cold.) It's just glorious to see the sun sparkling on the blue ocean under the immense blue sky. And to feel the sun and the water on my skin again. I may have been a little vitamin D deprived...
We also went to the local park and feed the water lif. There were 2 types of ducks, little tortoises and big eels. I forgot to take my camera. Too busy living the moment.
The jetlag was shocking. It has taken weeks for me to sleep properly and be able to concentrate on conversations, emails etc. (Apologies for those who tried to communicate with me.)
I am back on track now. In fact, I started my new job on Monday. I'm really enjoying teaching again, particularly the classroom music. And the unit for year 9 is...JIGS! Nice.
