Best and Worst: What's going on in your world this week?

Here we are, team.

It’s Friday, and the end of what (for some) has been a nice and short week.

As is tradition, it’s time to share the Best and Worst of the week that was. I’ll kick things off.

Best.

Spring has totally sprung in Melbourne.

Actually, on Monday and Tuesday, Spring sprung so hard she landed in Summer. 35 Degrees. Much exciting. Very sun.

Sunny, sunny Melbs.

In a city like Melbourne, where (let’s be honest) the weather isn’t always the greatest, a clear sky and a bit of sunshine makes such a difference to people’s moods and sense of wellbeing. Everyone’s smiling, chatting, eating and drinking.

It has put me in such an incredible mood.

Sometimes, it really is the simple things that can pick you up when you need it most.

Worst.

My worst this week can be explained in two words- Sinus. Infection.

Bleugh.

I am one of those people who manages to get sick whenever I have the opportunity to relax. Does that happen to anybody else out there? Please let me know if I’m alone in this… It’s like the second you slow down, breathe- BAM instant illness.

Handed in that major assignment? Congratulations, have some Gastro.

Delivered a big presentation at work? Go you! Why not celebrate with a touch of Bronchitis.

Oh, I hear you’re heading up North for a holiday. Please enjoy this complementary Croup.

This time?

I’ve just finished a conference presentation for uni and it’s warm and very sunny. So, to top that off I’m currently enjoying feeling like I’m swallowing razor blades while an over-fed elephant sits on my face.

‘Get some perspective, Steph,’ I hear you say. ‘It could most definitely be worse.’

Yeah, you’re probably right. But hey, no judgement here. This is Best and Worst.

So it’s time for you all to share.

What’s been making you smile this week, and what do you want to have a good old fashioned whinge about?
