- Jett’s go a serious Screen addiction after finding his PlayStation this summer. Fortnight has over come him again. RAGE begins.
- Minuet steaks are still a HIT at home.
- Adz and I hit the road with all the plants. We stop at customers house to try and fix a warped Ambient diffuser lens. Wow what a house. We get there in time to drop the plants off and pick up a load of aggregate for JT. His UTE is in the shop. 45tons of stone has killed the gear box! Straight down to 90 mile beach for a sole cleansing dip followed by the Kalimna hotel for dinner. Cheers Adzy.

- Jett has a meltdown at school and threatens self-harm. I pick him up and take him to the Alfred emergency. He does a runner and later, Nanny calls an ambulance to come help him. Jett has to stay away from School while we get the doctors all clear. A stupid social media post later and CGS aren’t impressed. It takes us over 10 days to get Jett back to school all while dealing with the death of YeYe. Hes on the mend now.
- I get fat face and later figure out it has nothing to do with preservative 210. It’s the stress, thanks Jett.
- Tanya and I hit the camping and Caravan show at Flemington to make sure Wonderland have everything set to go (we take Jett as he’s off school). It’s a 35-degree day and the traffic to get into the carpark was epic. Good thing we show up. There are heaps of new WONDERLAND upgrades they said they couldn’t do so I push them to do it for our new van. Getting super excited.

- Lunch with Judo Bank.
