NBN technicians arrived and quickly connected it up. They were nice to appease my request to leave space for my equipment. Wired it up all after dinner - and it all generally worked well. One drop out, but that looked to be the router struggling to keep up.

Spent the morning clearing weeds and rocks ready for the NBN guys coming the next day. Filled buckets of rocks, and weed matted a majority of the rear. Played Fifa with Al - lost all the games, although I improved by the end.

Fixed the tweeter on the Solo 9c - the magnet had fallen off and needed to be reattached. Made pizza for the kids - and had a pizza part with Evan. Enzo just wanted quiet time alone.

Woke up quite sick with a cold after battling it emerging the day prior. Rested all morning, before quickly heading out to get my glasses at Brookside. Everything looked zoomed and distorted - it was hard to adjust.

Day off for Anzac day - started to hang pictures in the house, hanging the Berlin posters and our wedding canvas.

1:1 with Adrien to check in on him. I can see his frustration growing, and did my best to help.

Meeting with Tom A - didn't realise it was for training on our course objects. I ran his team through them, and how we could make them like guides.

Catch up with Shaahin on all things operations - first time after meeting in Berlin. We're quite aligned in our thinking, and started noodling on ideas.

Woke up and guilted into teaching Kai how to write letters - after seeing Pacey on Friday who was only a year older.  Finished renovating the unit - cleaned the oven, which peeled all off. Setup the wheel and tested the headset - but couldn't dial in the wheel feedback.

Early swimming with the boys - afternoon to get Julie's 40th photos from brookside. Drove the Corolla Hybrid hire car around.

Met Fanghui, a mentee who reached out - she was forward about wanting citizenship. She had so little engineering experience, but was studying her masters.

Felons with Adi, Sascha, and Prags - Adi was pumped for getting asked for her ID.

Went to the unit after work to paint the hallway, cracks over the desk, and a bunch of walls. Got it mostly done - it looked really nice by the end. It was kinda sad to see it empty after all that time and memories.

First time dropping the boys off to school from the new house - had to leave early, but made it at a decent time. Good session with Nikk and CF to sort out the release plan for SCORM.

First day back at work - Ben W ran the League of Nations and felt frustrated. I got on a call with him to tell him how well he's doing, and that it was such a help for me.

First run at the new place - found the track behind Dennis' parents place, and even say his dad. It was really beautiful, and helped me realise it would all be good living at the new house.

Took the boys to Dads to stay the night, so Julie could have a night with her girlfriends. The boys played on the jet ski - then played WiiU with Tim before bedtime.

Julie's 40th - spent the morning blowing up balloons with the pump. Hung up a 4 and 0 balloon.  Dinner at Essa, loved the beef tartare in the beatle leaf.
