... is ANZAC Day in Australia so I do not have to work today! Yay! It is a holiday in Australia today so it is a holiday for me as well. ANZAC Day actually falls on a Sunday, April 25, but since it was a Sunday, the following Monday which is today was declared a holiday as well. So I will be doing some errands this morning and then relaxing in the afternoon. Of course, I'll have more time posting and interacting here in myLot. Hope you guys have a pleasant surprise as well.

When I lived in Italy April 25th was a holiday, it still is, Liberation Day. I had a pleasant surprise today, Ikea sent me a gift card loaded with $12.

Any plans on what you're getting with the Ikea gift card?

My friend also concentrated on applying for Australian accounts because she gets to work during the day here.

@merrybelle2021 sounds more like New Zealand time to me. 6am is the earliest time that my Aussie shift starts.

@allen0187 They start very early, though, 4 or 5am, so need to sleep early and/or nap later.
