Time for Mamamia’s most popular weekly post where you get to share and vent. Laugh and cry. There’s something quite cathartic about reflecting on the highest and lowest points of your week and sharing them anonymously with strangers.
Especially when the strangers become familiar people who cheer and commiserate and follow your progress.
If you’re new to Mamamia or this post, remember that your ‘worsts’ don’t have to be tragic or serious. Trivial is totally fine. Also feel free to share anything that’s on your mind this week (which readers have shortened to OMM – On My Mind) doesn’t have to be worst or even best.
Me first –
BEST: Watching Q&A on Monday night. God, I’m a nerd but between the David Hicks question and the shoe-thrower when host Tony Jones almost threw himself in front of John Howard, live television hasn’t been this exciting since the final of Australia’s Next Top Model.
WORST: The realisation that it’s November. Wasn’t New Years Eve just, like, last weekend?
BEST AD OF THE WEEK:
Thanks Nicola

Melissa dying on 'Packed to the Rafters'. Sat in front of the television sobbing my eyes out! I know it's just a show but it's utterly devastating!! Can't imagine how Ben will live without her!
(yes, I'm tragic for feeling so emotionally connected to fictional characters)
First best and worst of the week comment for me!
Best: Red salmon and brie quiche. Always makes a day better.
Worst: My three year old daughter has an ear infection (first time she has been sick, and it was horrible) and my two year old son has conjunctivitis (giving eye drops to a two year old is a NIGHTMARE!).
OMM: I start two weeks of nursing clinical placement for uni next week. Scared. Why are they letting me loose on an unsuspecting public?
Hiya and Welcome..Congrats on your entry into the B&W's
If you can deal with (and sounds like you are even if it's been distressing) your 2 kids' illnesses....GUESS WHAT ...you will be F I N E on uni placement cos you will surprise yourself with how confident you'll be ONCE there..OK?
