Yesterday I worked a "real" job, shooting an interview with a fairly famous subject (former state governor and US presidential candidate). With any luck, it might get rolled up into bigger jobs. At the very least, it will look good on my resume.

Also, I made what I make in two weeks at my "day job" for about an hour's work.

This very morning, I was swimming in a warm sea, during a fresh hard rain, it sounded like barking bolter.

Went sailing on Windermere and spent the afternoon in good company at a garden party at a big house on the Lake shore.

My class is setting up a popcorn shop for learning about financial literacy and the day of making popcorn went smoothly without me losing anymore hair than I have already lost. Now just a night of helping judge a mathematics competition before I can head home at 9:00pm. Thirteen and a quarter hours of being stuck at school, I feel like I have accomplished something. (on the down-side I haven't seen my 20 month old at all today

)

Went swimming with my dogs [well wading in my case

You need to go swimming in a tidal river where the salt water meets the fresh then

Everyone would be happy apart from you as it will most likely be mud rather than sand between your toes...

Being back at work after 2 years off with stress and being able to book my wife a cruise to Alaska. Its the first time she's allowed herself to get excited for a very long time - PRICELESS.

LOVE

Got divorced two years ago, had a brief affair about a year later which was very nice and made me feel attracted and wanted, even fell in love, she didn´t

and that was that.
But this time it's for real

She's got five kids so Sum total I'll become the "father" of eight kids

No problem, I like kids

weareblind · « **Reply #444 on:** August 09, 2010, 09:03:06 AM »

8... Bodhi, you're a madman or a saint! I have only a critter and she's eating me alive...

Been working with kids for most of my life, the last six years with kids having serious aggresion problems and problems with adapting socially. So I´m used to most things that have with kids to do, even the more serious problems like trying to run a sharp knife through ones friends

Bodhi · « **Reply #446 on:** August 09, 2010, 07:10:33 PM »

Moving on to the grown ups now with similar problems - hopefully - have applied for jobs teaching at prisons.

What can I say, patience - a very great deal of it - is my only virtue

Well firstly I treated mrs Addams to a rather lovely weekend of boogying in Manchester at Fab cafe. Much needed. But whilst back there visiting family I got some good news.

We're currently living with Mrs Addams parents in a house thats fantastic and large (6 bedrooms) but its literally falling apart. Dozens of holes in the walls, no carpet, a boiler system which is archaic and hazardous, and paint thats literally falling off along with dozens of other problems I could mention. Its not like the family doesn't have the money - they simply can't be bothered.

They've let us stay, and I'm grateful, but last month they more then doubled the rent (the week I go full time, they increase the rent, what a coincidence!) to a whopping £430...

Anyway, whilst back in manchester my family revealed they'd put a bit of cash aside - meaning rather then waiting the 6 months we were looking at to get the funds together, we should be out of here by the end of September AND we can look at a much needed holiday. Yay for things going right!

Penfold · « **Reply #449 on:** August 09, 2010, 08:50:04 PM »

That is good news Gomez but 430 quid a month rent that's more than my mortgage for a 3 bed house, also don't you have to work some were for 10 years before you are entitled to an 1 day holiday

.
Good luck house hunting,
