Desmond has a barrow in the market place...

I am so happy its ridiculous?! I'm not sure what's gone on in the last few weeks but I am really content and happy out
as the sister says. I feel like dancing in the office, or in the rain. Dancing in the rain always gets you odd looks. So the kid is off for a week. That have something to do with the happiness. She flies out tomorrow morning to the sister in Holland. We have declared that we won't be seeing anyone for the next week. Lots of QT, poetry, green tea and hand holding, you know the usual laserbeam stuff ;) I guess in the last month or so everything seems to have settled down. The kid has finished school, she's 18, Mammy2 is leaving her work place and work is great. Sorry, not great but good and interesting and I am learning loads :) When I think back over the last few years, make some tea, this could take a while, I have to say, I have never felt as content and happy as I am now. I am very lucky with the family and framily that I have. For those of you unfamilar with the word, its an american word, don't roll your eyes and means friends who are family to you. I have no regrets, thank god. I'll stop now before I make you sick :P

We had a lovely night last night, catching up with the mate J. She's all loved up at the mo, its beyond cute. We went for dinner to El Bahia , and I was impressed. I am such a picky eater, mainly because I find eating more of a chore then anything. I do like eating potatoes though. I was well impressed with their vegetarian options even though they did mention the evil aubergine once on the menu. Evil things. I was in fresh yesterday being a good housewife, and I spotted a herd of them. I wanted to kill the lot of them, but I thought I might get some odd looks from the other shoppers. I glared at them as I walked past. I think they got the message that I didn't like them. But back to the meal. J and Mammy2 loved it, they had 3 courses and I heard about that for the rest of the evening. They were too full god bless their cottens.

The kid put in an apperence for the first time in over a week yesterday for about 5 minutes. She dropped a bag, asked me for money and left. I asked her who she was and could I see some ID. She didn't laugh, strangely enough. She asked me about going shopping for her DEBs dressed. I laughed and presented a catalogue of my mates who would probably be of more assistence. She has settled on the mate S, although whether or not S wants to accompany her is another thing. She was heading out with the boyf and then later with the mate K to Fibbers. Such a classy joint. I was awoken to the sound of vomiting at around 2. I arrive into the bathroom to find her puking and the mate K doing the hair holding. Too many chips were had. Apparently. I mean, if you are going to make up and excuse, at least do a bit better then that. Too many chips, pfft. I left them to it and went back to bed. On my way out to work this morning, I got a mumbled "pick up coke". I stuck my head in the bedroom and 2 pink bleary eyed heads looked back at me. I was going to ask if she had a chip hangover but I thought that might be pushing it.
