A cold breeze, clear skies. Tonight will be freezing. Well perhaps somewhere between 4 and 10 degrees centigrade.

About Irene Waters 19 Writer Memoirist

I began my working career as a reluctant potato peeler whilst waiting to commence my training as a student nurse. On completion I worked mainly in intensive care/coronary care; finishing my hospital career as clinical nurse educator in intensive care. A life changing period as a resort owner/manager on the island of Tanna in Vanuatu was followed by recovery time as a farmer at Bucca Wauka. Having discovered I was no farmer and vowing never again to own an animal bigger than myself I took on the Barrington General Store. Here we also ran a five star restaurant. Working the shop of a day 7am - 6pm followed by the restaurant until late was surprisingly more stressful than Tanna. On the sale we decided to retire and renovate our house with the help of a builder friend. Now believing we knew everything about building we set to constructing our own house. Just finished a coal mine decided to set up in our backyard. Definitely time to retire we moved to Queensland. I had been writing a manuscript for some time. In the desire to complete this I enrolled in a post grad certificate in creative Industries which I completed 2013. I followed this by doing a Master of Arts by research graduating in 2017. Now I live to write and write to live.

    Lovely to see some blue sky. We are only having grey skies down here in Victoria. 10C can be our day time high some days! This is a really bitter winter

    You can tell by the sky how frigid it is outside. The bluest skies in Minnesota always denoted icy-cold. If it was warm, the haze of humidity diluted the blue. I prefer the clear blue skies of the west but have come to love the clouds of the Pacific Northwest. I never tire of looking up!
