Working 12 hour shifts for 24&#215;7 coverage until July 12. \u00a0Won&#8217;t get on here much before then I reckon but hopefully I will be more diligent with keeping this updated once I do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yea yea yea I know I haven&#8217;t posted in a while. \u00a0Life has been a bit hectic lately which in a way is both good and bad. \u00a0It is very tiring but also refreshing that things are slowly but surely returning to &#8220;normal&#8221; (whatever that means).
