Little things

It's only Tuesday and I'm already feeling exhausted from work. Must say that I can't wait for this week to be over. At the moment I'm just trying to concentrate on the little things that I can look forward to.

Alison has a second interview with the PA (Princess Alexandra Hospital) tomorrow for a permanent social work position. She's been hard at work preparing (well a little) so I'm sure she'll do a fantastic job. It'll be great once she's firmly entrenched in the Queensland health system so I can get dibs on Q-Super which is supposed to be one of Queensland's best superannuation funds, or so I'm told.

I also ordered a new lens (Canon EF 50mm F1.8) and a macro adapter (Raynox DCR-250) from a camera store in Victoria. They say that they're just waiting for the Raynox to come into stock (probably on Thursday) and they'll ship it overnight so I should hopefully have the new toys in time for the weekend.

As an aside I've combined two of my current hobbies and taken to listening to podcasts about photography on my walks to work. www.tipsfromthetopfloor.com is a really informative podcast done by this audio engineer/amateur photographer in Germany and he covers a whole range of topics on his shows along with the occasional interview with specialised photographers.

Almost half-way through the week. Just gotta hang in there...
