Monday

Have had the day from hell.  Woke up to Kayla having diarrhea everywhere.  Probably from her stealing the bag of liver treats.  Nice mess to clean up before you even have your coffee.  Then they are digging up the streets all around my apartment.  Nowhere to move my car, which, by the way, is going to cost me about $300 this week.  The starter is dying.

I went to work this morning and forgot my glasses at home.  Just one of those days when everything that could go wrong did. 

My boss is a wonderful person but....She is a micromanager.  Drives me nuts.  She doles out praise with one hand and tells you all kinds of faults with the other.  At least I understand her and take everything with a grain of salt.  Hey, she helped the babies.  Gotta love her for that.

Anyhow, enough of my whining for today.  Have a great week, my friends.

Hi Linda. You certainly sound like you had a bad day. Hope the place is OK now and doesn't smell too much and that Kayla is on the mend, poor girl, you have to love them or you couldn't do it. Where did you park your car if not in your usual spot. Ross has to have a new windscreen put in his car this Saturday and that is $350 it is very badly cracked. Don't you just hate the unexpected, always happens when you least want it to. Glasses, I'm always leaving mine somewhere and I'm blind without them. Hate it when I go into the supermarket without them, can't ready anything and it is a waste of time. I used to have a boss (last job) he was the CEO and he was the same. He always had to place the blame for something going wrong onto someone - who cares as long as it is rectified. She was excellent with the babies so she definitely has a good side. Hope things are looking up for you. Keep posting and talking, Love Julie xox

It has been a strange day, weather wise.  Woke up to pouring rain, then beautiful sunshine, the pouring rain again.  Weird.  I am really missing Mumbushi this week.  Loved that little guy.  FB is getting a little weird.  We had a really nice group, then it grew.  In some ways it is a little better, in some ways, I liked the group we had.  Can you tell I don't like change too much?  I think I am just feeling too sentimental tonight.  Missing all my babies and can't wait to see them.  Mumbushi was only with us a short time, but he touched a lot of lives.  I am so sorry I never got to meet him.  Oh, Lord, the tears are starting. A little upset tonight.  Maybe I am being a little petty, but I don't care.  My son's girlfriend's family want to throw a birthday party for him tomorrow.  This is great.  However, for his birthday, he borrowed my car to go to a wedding, and stayed there overnight.  Just came back this evening, so no time to really do anything for him.  Now t

Ah, another week has gone by.  16 days left before I leave.  I realized today that it is not traveling that I am nervous about.  I think I have this fairy tale opinion of Africa that I had had since I was a kid.  I have dreamed of going for so long.  But with all that's going on, my views have shattered.   I always thought of Africa as deep jungles, lost rivers and exotic locations.  Maybe it was like that when I was a kid, but that was 45 years ago.  A lot changes in that time. Back to work tomorrow.  The weekend was a complete write-off.  Pouring rain, cold, miserable.  But I got a lot done.  Washed all the bedding from the guests last week.  So everything is good. Long weekend next week.  Our Thanksgiving.  I am invited to the "future in-laws??" for dinner.  Am looking forward to it.  Such a great family.  I am so glad Greg met Allie.  She is a wonderful girl (woman). Anyhow, I am all packed.  I think I have my luggage at the good weight.  I had to fix one of my

Have been doing a lot of thinking tonight.  I realize I can hold a grudge.  In my life, I have been abandoned by 2 mothers and a father.  However both mothers decided to come back into my life around the same time.  And it was a case of "let's forget about what was and there was nothing in the middle".  Everything is normal, we go on as if nothing happened.  Excuse me, but FUCK THAT.  I am not going to forget everything and just act like everything is normal.  I hate swearing, but there are a few times when it is warranted and this is one of them. Sorry for the rant.  It just really ticks me off that they expect me to be available when they decide to show up, like it's a family obligation.  There has never actually been a family situation. O.k. I have gotten it out of my system.  Deep breaths.  Relax.  Done. How are all my friends today?  Hope you are having a great week.  Just took Kayla for her walk.  We had a storm a little earlier this evening and when we we
