:frolic: Weekend is finally over!

Er, most people are happy when it starts:query:

I know, and I am like most people, but this weekend was a particularly tough one, with practically no time to rest. Tomorrow and Wednesday I get half the day off. I haven't not looked foward to the weekend in such a long time!
Ah, qualification is all!

Just make sure you use your time off sensibly, xSP.

Being old, retired and without really close friends (nearby) or family can often make one feel a bit useless. Voluntary work helps but, often, the thanks one gets seem just the "usual" reward for offering one's efforts.

Then someone tells you that your name has been mentioned at the Heritage Group meeting as having made a very positive impression and contribution.

Eyes brighter, tail bushier!  :whistling:

Makes it worth the efort.

That is great, it's always nice to feel appreciated :)

I didn't want the weekend to end at all, in fact I stayed up later than normal last night in some weak-ass attempt to make it last longer as I've got a lot of things at work going on this week and am not looking forward to it.

However. Enjoy what I'm sure is some well deserved time off, maybe take a walk in the park, stop at a cafe' and do some reading, or better yet sit at home and listen to some Antônio Jobim, early Gilberto Gil or maybe some Stan Getz!  ;D

Good for you, I for one feel your contributions are probably more noticed and impressive than you think,  and I would also love to see a picture of that bushy tail of yours 8)

Thanks for the compliment!

But my tail is something I keep well hidden - pesky grey squirrels keep following me otherwise. Especially this time if year, bloody randy tree-rats!

Yeah, I'll probably take a cold shower, rinse my eyes out with vinegar. 8)

Just got the word from the apartments. I can move in! Rent is $182 a month and the SD is $221. There were some negotions on whether to move in this week or later when I get paid. I think I will opt for later because that is cheaper and I can buy some things I'll need.

Blimey, you can pay that sort of rent per week for a one bed flat round here! Even old folks flats are £400/month +. Sometimes plus service charges.

Congratulations!

My offer to help move is still on the table.




I also still have my car.

Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

Wow! That's great news, Arturo:)

That's fantastic!  It's always great to have your own place.

Yes, it was used very sensibly, I came home and went straight to bed.  :offtobed: Slept all afternoon. :grin:
