Today was the real start of my semester at UOW. I had a meeting with disability support to get everything in place, since I officially began yesterday. My first tutorial is at 3:30 this afternoon, followed by a lecture straight after. It feels good to be settling in and starting to find my rhythm.

I also contacted HumanWare about my Brailliant Braille display, which has been giving me some issues. Thankfully, it’s still under warranty, so I’ll be sending it off for repairs tomorrow. Fingers crossed it comes back in good shape!

Tonight’s dinner is chicken schnitzel with mashed potatoes and veggies, prepared by my husband, who is an absolutely brilliant cook. I feel very lucky.

Hi everyone! What's everyone up to tonight? I'm wrapping up work on lesson 12 exercises for my Braille proofreading course, double-checking before sending to my instructor. Then, dinner time! My mom and stepdad brought back Mexican food from their trip to Mom's doctor appointment earlier. After that, it's either programming work or bed - I'm a bit tired, so we'll see.

Funny moment with Squeaker earlier: He didn't want to go to his kennel when called. He tried hiding in his daytime bed under my desk! Thought I'd have to chase him, but he finally came after several calls. He's already in bed now. 😄
