Its end of the month (EOM) ... some good things to reflect on ... some bad things to reflect on ...

Good Thought - Purchase of cars complete

Good Thought - God loves me ! (and so does my mother)

Good Thought - One month closer to retirement

Good Thought - All sons doing well, daughters are progressing at LIS; Thasya started modelling classes, Chely starts singing lessons next week

Bad Thought - Lots of finger pointing on the Palm house ... 18 days later 2nd inspection is still not complete ... everybody says it is somebody else's fault ... I don't know where we are in this process ... at this pace we will be lucky to be moving into a house by the 13th of October

Bad Thought - Amsouth bank sucks

Good thought - I'm healthy and my weight is doing fine; massages help !

Bad Thought - hotel living is not fun after 2 months ...

Good Thought - Today is payday

Bad Thought - Today's paycheck is the last of the big ones (Indonesia is not nearly as financially attractive as Angola)

... ok, enough of that ... one last good thought ... IT'S FRIDAY !!

ciao ciao
