Temperature rising part 2..........



















I cannot believe it has been so long since I last blogged well things have not changed much......C3 has been home now for nearly 3 weeks...unbelievable he has been sick on and off........ he went back to school at some point but started throwing unbelievably high temps again so i have kept him home.
His paed said that it is the flu that keeps coming back......great, unfortunately there are a lot of working parents who send their children to school with a high fever.........you think that the school could offer some service for these parents especially during the winter months when most of the children get sick.
Of course this is just a logical practical thought it would never work in a country that revels in red tape and frappe!!!
Sorry being a little bitter there.........working parents get a raw deal in this country!!!
Enough......of course with C3 being ill all the time I too have caught variuous bugs the latest has my ears and throat on fire...it's better today thankfully.
I have not scrapped but i have slowly downsized a lot of supplies. I have been brutal with things like stickers...I always wonder what was going through my mind when I bought them..they are pretty enough but i will never use them.....any one want them????????? some have been taken out of their packaging so i am giving them away for less than half the price i bought them at..if anyone is interested leave me a comment or email me so i can send you a pic.
Time for pictures.....
My new teapot!!!..oh so kitsch but oh so cute!!!!!




















The witch the magician and the green elf!!....















Oh we are also having a Save the planet party on Saturday night.....
later..........................

Temperature rising....................

Here it is in bullet points.....
  • woke up to a crying child this morning with a 40degree celcius temp!!! talk about a morning freak out
  • I am preparing to teach a scrapbooking class to Christian's kindergarten class...get them when they are young I say!!!!!
  • Still checking out private schools as we have ruled out the public school system entirely even for the primary school.....we have decided to invest in his education than in a house...of course nothing is written in stone.
  • had the most action packed...not to forget boozy weekend in a long time!!!
  • Ive had so much alcohol since Friday night that I feel strange holding a coffee cup instead of a wine glass!!!!!!!!
  • I haven't scrapped in ages and I am just about climbing the walls
  • I have a new tea pot and I am in love......with the tea pot that is!!
  • I have a new perfume..........I think i am in love with that too.......Mugler cologne.....I smell like spring when i wear it........
  • we went to the children's museum in Plaka...for all of you who live in Athens and have young children you must go it is definitely worth it...we couldn't get Christian to leave even when i bribed with the never fail chocolate bribe.
  • I dressed up as a witch for carnival............I will post some pics soon
Have to go and check on C3's temperature..........
Later................................
