these are part of mud flats/marshland that go quite a distance

pretty much impossible to navigate after this point as it is all salty mud flats, no sandy beach

it's a nature reserve after this point

Sometimes

especially if I'm having a salad with it

you can do this 👍

Loong beach walk, went to where the mangroves start. Saw two pelicans out of the water and close up, they are BIG, much bigger than I thought.

I'm loving this beach/sea side life, it's just what I needed to destress. 🙂

Beach. It's cold, I'll rug up.

and visiting the other side of the creek today, there are few rocks there and not many sea birds

haven't really explored that area yet , I'll take pics ❄️☀️

I cried a few times hearing Helen's story. Those poor children ( and I don't mean materially ).

Before these authors lived what they lived and the books they went on to write Aldous Huxley observed in the 1930s the personal and social effect that compulsory education was having on the English working class. Not only were they becoming empowered by the ability to understand the economic and legal world , they could read newspapers and contracts and such, but they could self educate on issues that helped their lives, like hygiene and nutrition. But most importantly education gave them the ability to structure and analyse what they observed and learnt about the world and the people around them.

I think these books and books like them are a product of that. ( Tho of course Helen came from a middle class family. )

I've been constantly thinking about those autobiographies by Helen Forrest ( that were recommended here 👍).

They are so interestingly written. She presents many facts. She presents how she lived and what her mother told her and the family.

What her mother told her and the family does not match the facts.

I have come to believe that control of others and sadism was the point of the mother's abuse.

Another good thing about reading these books is that they can help put your own feelings and knowledge into plain words.

the REA charge the landlords

it's a complete rip off

good night every one

sweet dreams 😘

Good night. 😘

I'm so sorry.

Nearly finished the day's tasks, then I can do some study. 🙂

not good. Maybe an energy drink will help a little.

rest as much as you can

🍵🍪

I love these little fluffy guys. 💖

I too love deadlines and it's a problem.

So I try to set rules of must do . Check lists help a lot. It's like a rule.

Beach, I will be sure to wear a hat and a windproof jacket 🌞💨🌊

So many pelicans today, must have been at least fifty. When the wind started gusting and a little rain started they hunkered down tucking their chin onto their breast.

Good luck. 🙂

She's going to bed too late.

Women need 30 mins more sleep than men.
