Merricks day two
Another good day at Merricks. Family woke up slow. Long walk on beach, bike rides, school projects, reading and general “slothness”. Girls love it here.
It’s cool and rain showers have made outside activities a bit of a lottery. We have released at least 1 ton of carbon into atmosphere as the fire has been roaring all day. Worth the $23.
Nothing planned tonight, a low key family dinner, nice wine and early to bed.
Tomorrow is my mothers 78th birthday lunch. As the Italian matriarch she has certainly embraced multicultural Australia as its yum cha! My father will turn in his grave! How things change.
Feeling ok.
Dog loving life!
My Unplanned Sabbatical 
Hi Serg,
How are you? I’ve been reading your blog and it’s pretty much answered that question.
I got off the phone today with Rob and he mentioned that he payed you a visit.
I felt a little incomplete because I didn’t get the opportunity to see you while I was there. The intentions were there but it sounded like it wasn’t good timing for yourself.
I’ve heard that you were making some positive progress which was great to hear.
Reading your blog has been an interesting journey and a great insight.
I’m sure it’s been a great tool for yourself. Keep it up, I’m sure it’s healthy.
Serg, I would just like to say that I feel for you, and your family and just to let you know that my thoughts and support are with you. I have all the belief in the world that you will come out of this just fine.
Take care,
Eugene
