Volunteering in Sydney

Holy crap I’ve been tired today! waking up 5:45 in the morning to catch the train to the city. Today is Tuesday and that means volunteering with the Sister 2 Sister.
I have mentioned before how chocked I was that Sydney has made some of their train carriages “Silent carriage”. I used to hate that because I wanted to babble on to Ambrose for the whole hour of our train ride and it was forbidden….
This morning I have to say, for the first time, I got it. I really really would punch someone in the face if they would start talking. I just wanted to relax, lay on Ambrose shoulder and half sleep as I starred out the window. I did try to read the last chapters of my book by Joseph Murphy, but was way too sleepy.

Luckily I got some energy while having my usual long back at my cafe’ on Elizabeth St. I always get in around 7:30 and we start working at 9:30, so it has become tradition now, coffee and calling back to someone back in Europe for a chat. Its a good time to call Europe around 7 or 8 in the morning Sydney time, they are still awake.

Today’s volunteering work, after our usual morning meeting was first the usual, researching grants. And then Jess asked me to find a appropriate venue for the yearly reunion we are starting. The plan is to reunite big and little sisters for an lunch. We will start with year 2005, that is when Jess started this whole thing. Amazing, now that I cannot work I am at least glad that this is the place I am volunteering.

Back at the house, could not be bothered to go to the gym so did around 25 min laps of running, HIIT style, or whatever you call it? And now: waiting for Ambrose to put his laptop down so I can, again, fall asleep in his arms. Goodnight everyone, sweet dreams! Zzzzzzzz
