Best and Worst: How has your week been so far?

Good morning lovely Mamamia readers.

I know most of you are probably familiar with the format for Best and Worst of the week but I’m going to go over it anyway.

Welcome to Best and Worst.

This is the space where we can silently (by silent I mean voice it to the interwebs) curse that flatmate who took too long in the shower this morning or celebrate the fact that it’s the Friday before Australia Day. Hello, three day weekend.

Let me start things off.

Best

My younger brother got into university!

He had the official confirmation this week and I may have yelped down the phone when he told me. He’ll be heading off at the end of February leaving Mum with an empty nest.

So proud of you, Matt. You’re going to change the world.

Worst

I can’t shake all the terrible gun-related news I’ve been hearing from America this week. First it was the 5-year-old that shot their sibling, then the 2-year-old that accidentally shot themselves. It’s gut-wrenching and absolutely horrific, something needs to change.

So that’s what’s been on my mind this week, how about you? Let us know in the comments.
