Valium for the Soul

Come with me on a journey through uncharted territory...

Quotes:
How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being. - Oscar Wilde
Quotes:
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. - Albert Einstein
Quotes:
Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge. - Mark Twain
Quotes:
I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him. - Mark Twain
Quotes:
Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence. - Albert Einstein

Countdown.....
20 days to go!

The house is clean
Exams are over (grades pending)
House is clean
Work is hectic
I've re-read my entire Georgette Heyer collection & I'm nearly through Terry Pratchett....

So in 1 week I finish work to have my first real holiday (ie don't have to work at all) for ever! wooohooo

Its quite a bizarre feeling to face the unknown - knowing that I will have to learn new streets and broader geography, new people, new numbers (aarrrgghhh numbers).

Kiddies are very excited. Small boy decided that he will only be nervous on the first day, but as it turns out they won't be the only new kids on the first day of school. There are 39 schools slated for closure in Canberra, and the government in their usual efficient fashion aren't advising until the 13th (2 days before school finishes for the year). So there will be other new kids, unsure of a new school and looking for new friends.

I hope everyone has a good christmas & gets what they want in a realistic fashion (would like to send world peace your way Jack & Peaches but I can't promise)....

Be well.

    The mere thought of your sending world peace our way brings a warm, comforting feeling into my being.

    Thank you for such a wonderful thought.

    May your holidays and the rest of your life be just what you want it to be.

    Remember to....

    serve others, care about those you serve and share the love in your heart.

    Thank you dear Blue for wishing Peace for us ( me). What a thoughtful gift. I wish it back atcha.

    Your children will be great in Canberra. Because of the public service, the military/naval base, the embassies etc, there is a moving population in our nations capital.

    They will fly through it especially since they have a mum like you.
    All the very best sweet lady of Oz.
