Glad I crack myself up!Yes, I am with Lap Top.
Got a good deal on a very long interest free period....VERY! Or I wouldn't have agreed to it.
It is for me, and it will be very handy for work, but not absolutely necessary.
I suppose I'm too modest at times, don't want for much.
So I'm sitting at the dining table writing this, watching tv at the same time - how fab!
I have an appointment for Small Man to see lap band surgeon on the 19th February, in Hobart. It was the earliest appointment.
Need to raise the gap fee, but we'll manage. The whole op costs $10,000!!!!
Glad we kept up the private health to be sure.
There has been much on the news in the last few days about teenagers and lap band surgery, apparantley the government has been asked to fund free lap bands for teenagers that meet the criteria. At least someone agrees with me that this is a good preventative measure.
Am slowly spring cleaning the house, trying to do a cupboard a day or something similar, in preparation for the big visit from the in laws and a party for mother in laws 60th birthday in February *sigh* there is much to be done around here, things seemed to have slipped a bit with Small Man at home. Nothing major, but I know it hasn't been done....
Plus I'm the worlds biggest hoarder which doesn't help!
The garden, well, what to say about that - I just don't know where to start!!!!
Didn't get any extra done today so am a bit disappointed in myself - tsk tsk to me!
A bit distracted by the lap top buying/setting up!
Grandma is coming to stay from Friday to Tuesday, so we should get a bit of gardening done between us. Have to avoid too much sun with the Lupus (is supposed to flare it up). I seem to have more energy later in the day too, so do more then!
Have had lots of messages from NM over the last week or so, has been good to re-connect, I'm accepting it all slowly.
I have always had a wall with people, some it takes a long time to let down, sometimes they can think I have let it down, but I haven't really.
I don't plan to be this way, I think it's another adoptee reflex.
I have a friend that was adopted too and she is the same.
Except with our kids! Never with our kids! It was amazing to just open my heart completely to another person, two of them actually!
Life's weird eh!
Something I heard Oprah say the other day, she may say this often I don't know I don't watch that much, but it went something like......
Holding onto negatives from your past is like taking a poison and wishing for someone else to die - you are only hurting yourself.
Think she's onto something there! Very profound, it's been going through my mind since I heard it.
