G'day,
What makes a " Perfect Sunday " ?
I suppose we all have our criteria but for me, one where I wake up after a first hockey game victory ( stiff but no pulled muscles ); enjoy a bowl of Tasty Wheat; have a garage cleanup with everyone contributing; find the letters Bron and I wrote to Matt and Jen when were in Munich in 2005 and have them read back to me by Jen; sip on a crisp Sauvignon Blanc with lunch and then finish reading the Sunday paper comes pretty close - and, it's only 3 o'clock !
We had a fantastic few days up at Coffs Harbour this week. The 250 km drive up on Monday seemed to take forever and the driving rain made us grateful that we had remembered to take the cards and chips for Texas Hold'em. The weather improved spectacularly as you can see from this week's picture taken from Muttonbird Island looking west over Coffs Harbour. We played golf in the mud, fished ( barely a bite ), ate fresh seafood at the harbour, visited The Big Banana and played lots of pool ( Jen's highlight of the trip ). I spent a day and a half in " Planning Sessions " for the Northern Child Health Network and the Children, Young People and Families Clinical Network. The 2 Networks overlap but also have their own identity and agendas. They cover slightly different geographical areas and together with our Area Health Service provide excellent care for the children of Northern New South Wales. Challenges we face include closing the gap between Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal care, the burden of children in Out-Of-Home ( foster ) care, manpower shortages and improving Neonatal Resuscitation outcomes - all achievable.
My Sunday just got better - a cup of tea and a piece of freshly baked chocolate cake............
You don't have to send me your thoughts but, what makes a " Perfect Sunday " for you ?
With love
Dyl, Bron, Matt and Jen
