The job is turning out to be the best decision I’ve made in a long time. I’m one of those people who always did well in school without really trying and walked out at the end without a fucking clue what they wanted to do with their lives. I love being a drama teacher. I’m also going to keep trying with my music, because even I was embarrassed for the last lot on NZ Idol last week… dude… I hope no other country sees NZ Idol.
Things have settled down with my flatmates. I don’t expect to have the cops or the bailiffs around again. Big with the not fun. But ‘yay’ with the paying of their rent being up to date.
This is day four with no cigarettes. I have not killed anyone or even been mean. I think I have missed a golden opportunity. *sigh*
My washing machine is broken so I’ve been doing it by hand. It makes me think of my Grandmother and appreciate what she must have gone through with seven kids and a husband that did manual labour. More than that, it just makes me think of her. I miss her.
My boy is ten. He was in a fight yesterday against 5 other boys trying to protect one of his little friends. He made two of them cry and swore a blue streak. I don’t think I’ve ever been so proud. He got to chose where we went for dinner and I practically glowed at him for two hours. LOVE that kid *bg*
