Finally Friday !!
Yahoo !!! Thanks God it is Friday. After working non-stop 14 hour days this week, I am very much looking forward to the weekend. But, before I get there … I have a dentist appointment to work on a crown tha needs replacement. That’s a two edged sword. First – because going to the dentist is never fun …. BUT, it means I get to leave the office early (yay) …. BUT it means that I will have more work to do this weekend to catch up for leaving early – UGH.
As for the weekend, I will do my usual massage and treadmill run. Plus, I will attend the wedding reception of a young couple from Decy’s salon that is getting married Sunday. And, of course, I will be doing “work” work.
On a much more personal note, a very good friend of mine Tom Rapson, who use to work with me in Angola and currently works in Sakhalin Russia will be coming to Jakarta for a business trip. He arrives on Saturday 13 March. He will spend the weekend at our house … work during the week. Then, he and I will travel to Singapore to have some guy time on the 19th. I return to Jakarta on Sunday the 21st and then enjoy a weeks vacation. On the 22nd Decy and I will travel to Bogor and spend some time there just the two of us (Thasya will be in Bali enjoying spring break with some friends). Decy and I return on the 25th … so she can work the weekend at the salon … and I will putz around the house for the rest of my “mini-vacation”. The plans aren’t fancy … but, the give us a break from work and time together.
*** On a completely different subject – although I know my sister and brother-in-law are not fond of publicly posted diaries, blogs, letters, etc., I need to at least acknowledge that March 6 is my sister’s birthday … I love my sister very much and I know she loves me. We have been through a lot together over the years – and as is always the case, siblings don’t always see eye-to-eye. Nevertheless, our love and mutual respect for each other have grown over the years. Happy Birthday Norma !!! God Bless You …. I will try to call you this weekend for a more personal Birthday wish.
Other than the above, not much really going on. Thus, I will close this email and will work on some finances I need to take care of.
Ciao ciao. GBU.
