At Least....

is certainly a phrase I have been using a lot lately.


* At least it isn't influenza... I started working at a preschool. Working at a preschool equals copious amounts of micro-organisms being introduced into your system that you may not have been introduced to before...I am sick...again. This time it is just a slight cold, from which my daughter recovered in just one day. I haven't been so lucky.

* At least we have 4 meters of yard... We have finished designing our house, and while it isn't everything I had imagined (although it will definitely be amazing, the saving grace of the whole deal is that we will have about 28 sq. meters of grass, where in we can frolic around like morons on sunny days. I plan on planting the softest, fluffiest green carpet I can find.

* At least we have air-conditioning!... It is bloody hot here in tokyo. I loathe the summer, I think you get the point

* At least it's only umm....4 days a week? I started working again. It started as a once or twice a week thing, and then morphed into two full days and 2 half days, plus at home duties (coordinating). I still have a smidgen of free time, but I know it is good for Nanami, and good for me mentally to be challenged a bit more.

* At least it was only a few months and not a year! I have been incredibly silent in cyber space...so busy I reckon, and so un-motivated to do any writing. but... I will pop in now and again....at least.

I reckon Kinder teachers must become so tough after catching all the bugs and snotty noses going round. hope you are feeling better.

Running round after other people's kids and then going home to run round after your own... wow. Must be tiring.

Hope you get re-motivated to write some more :D
