Every so often, a red poppy appears on my screen. Weirdly this has been known to happen close to ANZAC day without any conscious intent on my part.

Today’s Gratitude Item: Finally having our network at school back online. It was a very long one and a half days with no email, no internet, no student database and no way for my classes to make progress. The nature of my subject is that everything we do requires a working network and if this goes down, it becomes impossible to do any meaningful work. Outages are rare but when they happen it can be both stressful and exhausting.
