Hard Things Are Hard
American political strategist David Axelrod once famously told President Obama that "hard things are hard".
Eliza thinks Axelrod's blunt advice is useful when it comes to preparing for COVID-19.
She's starting to plan for a future where coronavirus and all the associated disruptions become the new normal. That process of change and adaptation is hard - but then everyone's finding it a challenge.
Geraldine is forcing herself to put down COVID-related news and pick up a novel instead.
Also this week: Sydney's terrific urban renewal project. Eliza and her Mum also clash over Sydney's new casino building.
