When I don’t have time to properly format a post. Could involve any topic.

    Staying inside to wait out whatever rain may develop. Should be okay on the weekend, certainly by Sunday, but a dream run considering the living nightmare up north.

    The trees in Canberra are stunning. The foliage is past turning, but that is part of the gripping sight and imposing presence. Awesome. Some of the greens, too, are magnificent.

    Every chance I’ll get an injection into the right eye, or possibly more laser in the left, and maybe both.

    Thankful for a good sleep and it not being too cold. Not having a base to return to however adds extra dimensions of risk, and anxiety. I don’t feel quite right, but I never wanted to return to 476 anyway, when away. In another sense, then, I feel liberated.

    Quite a lot of rain forecast for tomorrow. Could be a long day. Worry about it as it comes.

    The scary thing now is organising a warm shower here in the carpark, as I normally do. But shit it’s colder, by a lot, this time.

    UPDATE. 5PM. Had laser treatment in my right eye, beginning that process (with the intention of limiting the need for injections.) Passed my driving vision test, thankfully.

    Water fill station at Westfield shops in Philip not far from the hospital. So good to find.

    But first I filled up in a scungy one nearby.

    Mawson shops, aiming for crap pizza tonight. Easy, different, cheaper. The van in line with the path.

    Found water here, too. Huge stroke of good fortune.

    Earlier, a tall building to be inside. Felt contrast with living in a van. That’s Mt Ainslie, my playground as a kid.

    Earlier still, windy cold Braidwood on the way up. About 11am.
