I just got an email from the company that I ordered my 350D from and the new stock won’t be arriving until the end of April. At least it gives me time to pay more of it off to Mum before I get it.

one of those days
Today is one of those days when I wish …
… alcohol was never discovered by early man,
… alcohol was not a problem in my family,
… he would understand the pain we suffer,
… I wouldn’t come home to find him drinking,
… we could understand why he does it,
… people would understand what alcoholism is,
… people would not joke about alcholism,
… people would not encourage him,
… people would not question why I don’t have another drink,
… I did not have to act as a second parent.
… that I had more happy memories of him than negative/sad.
… that friends would see him before choosing to drink excessively.
… that alcohol was not what he uses to cope with his problems.
… that alcholism was given more attention in society.
… that I could have a had an alchol free childhood.
… that he had friends.
… that I had the money and means to move out.
… that I don’t expect things to always go bad for me.
I know that I can’t make him change,
I choose to drink, I don’t drink more than once or twice a month,
I do enjoy having a drink with friends.
I don’t see the appeal of drinking at home or at the pub by yourself.
I know that I can only change how I cope my self.
Real Simple Thought
Every day I get two quotes in my inbox, one from real simple and one from Think.Exist, this one from “real simple” struck a chord with me the other day.
Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.

in my life.
To a great mate, who had to postpone her first date with a great guy becuase of the dreaded cold, get well 🙂 chica!
I am sitting here doing some scrapping for me and just me, it seems like all the stuff I have done recently is scrapbooking work. I would have never thought when I started scrapbooking that I would be where I am now. It has given me so much.
Had a great day at uni this morning, Cory had brought a family pack of malteasers to the lecture, which made the lecture better for sure, it was a great lecture though – on the Developmental State in Singapore. How is this for keeping it in the family?
The first prime minister of Singapore was Lee Kwan Yew, his eldest son is now the current PM – Lee Hsien Loong, his other son Lee Hsien Yang runs Singtel, the state’s teleco company and then Lee Hsien Loong’s wife Ho Chin runs Temasek, the state’s holding company. That is one powerful family!
