I probably will, but I'll wait til there's snow capping the mountains so it's a nice post-card picture kinda deal. And til I'm done fixing the balls- I bought glue and glitter to trace over some of the plainer ones in swirls and spins, since the pre-done ones with swirls and spins are upwards of 10 chf a piece, which is just a little ridiculous.
And that's good to hear.
The best thing you can do to encourage her to read is talk to her. The more you talk, and the more words you use, the bigger her vocabulary will be. It doesn't work if it's a tape recording, it has to be real human-child interaction. Both of my psychology texts suggest that as the BEST way to encourage literacy in children.
I don't know that I did- I had one, but the photo-taker was drunk, so it was too blurry to actually work.
I put up my little Christmas tree, because I could, and hung up a string of balls like icicle lights, because I have so many bulbs and so little tree.
Mostly, my first roommate brought a random man home and they locked up in the bathroom, which resulted in me at the professor's door at 5 am demanding a reassignment, because I couldn't deal with the disrespect, among other things. She claims I'm a hypocrite, but when I hooked up on travel, I took it to somewhere else, and my roommate was NEVER anywhere near at hand, because I didn't want to alienate her.
In any case, it was frustrating, but generally the trip was nice, though the food was horribly fattening.
Last year I was Sailor Pluto.
Dunno, maybe I borrow Andi's dress and find some elf ears, that would be simple.
The south coast was hot enough to swim in the ocean. In Lugano, however, it's cold enough for breath to steam. Kind of suckish, but it's good to be home with Ifraz again, and free from the overwhelming drama of the last two weeks.
Not sure if we'll even do Halloween, I have my GRE on the 4th, and thus need to be studying for it, we'll see, but a ladybug sounds very cute.
Quite well, although missing Ifraz immensely. Currently in Anatalya, which is a city in Anatolia Turkey. All expenses paid resort for the last three days of travel. I've decided to become an alcoholic while I'm here and it's free. Thus far, this is working excellently. Except the one strange drink the guy tried to give us which was blue, and while I'm sure he's a nice boy, I don't drink blue drinks that are supposed to be gin and vodka... way suspicious of ruffies. Mum's working on the wedding dress now, though, and for all that I've been eating so much, I haven't gained a thing because I skip a meal as I'm simply not interested in eating after the huge lunches they serve. Tomorrow it's sushi, though, which I can't say no to, which means there will inevitably be a lot of swimming tomorrow to compensate. And possibly some shisha to reduce appetite.
unfortunetly i just lost 40k on that stupid LexBox piece of s**t because i didnt know wat to do with it so the winter fox minx i was planning on buying has just gone down the toilet
I'm sorry, Petra. All I hear is Matt says, Matt decided, Matt. I get it, he's your husband. I didn't realise that meant your keeper and maker of ALL decisions. Why else would Ifraz be unfit to have around, if he wasn't going to damage her, exactly ? Jelly and Sean had no issues, and Xavier is younger than Meia.
I am trying to understand, but it's really kind of ridiculous he can't let down his guard dog for two days. I'm not coming back to the United States anytime soon. Gran told Ifraz to buy me a ring, and he's decided he will. He has medical treatments here the next three years, and I won't leave without him. So at best, I go to the states in three years. But I guess asking to see you then won't matter, because Ifraz will still be a stranger.
Oh wait. People can't become not-strangers unless you meet them. Well s**t, I guess have a nice life, since I'm not allowed to bring the stranger around, and he happens to matter to me more than life.
Right. Because I habitually date child killing monsters. And no, it wasn't "Personal attack" so much as GO KOFFING SMOKESCREEN!! I'm sorry you have expenses, guess what? Me too! I have 102,000 in debt, which grows by the minute. But you don't see me taking it out on my mates, sugar. Sorry I still thought you WERE a mate. Sorry I wanted you to meet the man I want to spend the rest of my life with. Sorry I tried to keep you as a part of my life, I see clearly that I'm not wanted, and any man I date isn't good enough. Cheers.
... I'm a stranger. You're one of the best friends that I have in the world, and I'm a stranger. Wow. Just. Wow, Petra. No, hate's not the word. Heartbroken would be the word you're looking for.
