The boss is in SA on business (but never bothered to tell me), and I have 2 days off this week from tomorrow which makes it a long weekend. Yay.
Tomorrow is Mom and Jordan day, and on Friday I am collecting Connor from tennis to hear how he's doing.
So, in my mind...other than the stock market, what's not to be happy about?
Here's 10 reason for being happy:
1. The kids are great, my relationship with them has really been improved by the move to London for a million reasons.
2. Connor has been told by the England Tennis Club that he has real talent in tennis, (or rather they told me) and they'd like to train him if he'd like to carry on.
3. Jordan stopped extra Maths and started Piano again - the guy that arrived was a dwarf (literally) and took us all by surprise!! Unfortunately his teaching style is not great, and he smelled a LOT so we are saying no thanks to him. We spent last night in fits of giggles about it though!
4. I saw snow on the cars today so that's great cos the kids are dying to see snow.
5. The sun shines every day, even though it's pretty cold.
6. My health is great except for a little cold I can't get rid of.
7. I'm having a great time with friends here, esp the Strijdom clan!! Kitty baked us all Merangues again!
8. MY friends Chris and Ang have just offered me an old PC for free for the kids homework, as I was really not looking forward to buying another one! YAY! I have to go fetch it, but that'll just be a great day out for all of us!
9. My Bank Manager came to see me - really!! All the way from BANK (where, naturally, all bank offices are - where else ???) I really enjoyed that, and he woo'ed me in the hopes I'd invest more, and when I said "no" he was rather crest fallen. I liked that ;-) Anyway, now we are great friends! Who'd have thought???
10. Every night the kids and I have dinner together and chat about the day and what they learnt - it's FABULOUS. Amazing how much Connor knows about Egypt!!!
So, bearing that all in mind, hopefully money is far less important in the greater scheme of things? Also, now there's a smaller financial gap between the 'poor' (me) and the 'rich' (my Dad) - so that should make me happy too! :-)
Hehehe - what do you think ? Vomit inducing????? LOVE IT!! Have a great day !!!
