I kind of had a sickie today. Well actually, I did have a sickie.  And it was good too.  I just lazed around (Jacob goes to Daycare on Wednesdays), watched a movie on Foxtel (The Brave One - with Jodie Foster) and then got some organising/filing done in the study.  So I am now sitting in a nice clean, sorted, comfortable space to write in this journal.

I've had a hectic last few weeks and will try to write about that in future.  Just let me say that getting my son's tonsils and adenoids out was one of my worst parenting experiences.  I just wasn't prepared for what it would be like.

Anyways, I'm off out to dinner tonight with some friends from high school.  We try to meet once a month.  It's amazing that the four of us are still friends after so long.  These are friends that know me inside and out and have been through everything in my adult life with me.  I don't have to put on any persona with them.  I can be myself - good and bad.  I value them so highly.  I will have to remember to remind them how I feel when I see them tonight...awwww...
