What made me happy today. Was abled to purchase Michelle Malkins latest book and 2 of Glenn Beck's books from a Bookstore in Brisbane. Ordered all 3 books from the US and will have them in 2 weeks time. Looking forward to some good informative reading.

Also pleased with my daughter today. She behaved very well at speech therapy today

And again today regarding our 8 yr old daughter. Some time ago my wife and I approached the ENT Doctor (Ear Nose Throat) Specialist about Cochlear Ear Transplant for Daughter. Wife Daughter and I last month had an appointment at the Mater Hospital in South Brisbane about Cochlear Ear Transplants for a child. Just to further our knowledge and to see if Daughter can be fitted with Cochlear and Hospital informed us Yes daughter can be. We have to go in next Tuesday to discuss further about Transplant to Mater Hospital.

And today The Speech Therapist at Brisbane Speech Pathology further recommended this operation. My wife and I have decided we will go ahead with all medical recommendations for our daughter
 
Emac - it's good to hear about your daughter, I hope all goes well with the surgery and all.

And my good things today?
Finally got back to work again, after a month spent more or less in bed, with cold, flu, pneumonia, antibiotics, more cold and flu, a visit to a lung clinic - and finally getting better this week. Sigh!
 
Thanks BB. Daughter is more anxious to get the implant then her mother and myself. Daughter has picked out the colour for Outer transmitter. Pink of course. Her current hearing aids are pink and so it the ear moulds. Up until a year ago I had never seen Ear Moulds Tubes and such for hearing aids in Pink. But Hearing Australia proved me wrong. They presented a catalogue of colours and of course my girl said Dad can I have the Pink ones. I had to laugh BB

By the way BB get well soon
 
Messy1: Nah, I enjoy it, it's pretty limited just how much fun it is, sitting around at home, doing nothing much but knit socks, read books, watch movies and surf the web. I't s alright for a limited amount of time, but it gets old pretty fast when you're used to being out and about.

Sabrina: About time, too! Good to hear. And to reply on your question: I had flu two times, pneumonia once, and plenty of cold.

Emac: Heheh, she's a true girl then - pink = awesome! It's pretty amazing what you can get for various kinds of physical aid, in all sorts of shapes and colours these days. It's nice though, instead of a boring skin colour you can get all sorts of flashy colours and patterns - me likes.

Vic: About time, too! Great to hear - it can get pretty gruelling and nerve-wracking, when one don't know where next month's money is going to come from!

Oh - my good stuff for today?
Woke up at 0536 without the aid of the alarm clock.
As I don't meet in before 10 o'clock, that gives me plenty of time to relax, make a decent morning meal for once, and have a nice relaxed cup of coffee and generally get ready for today in a nice, relaxed I-have-plenty-of-time-and-excess-energy-kinda way.
We're a small bunch of guys who's going to be tuitored today on how to perform job interviews, so everyone's expected to show up, wearing our best and look as good as possible.
That gives me time to iron a shirt and my good trousers too, polish my shoes and get ready with time to spare, instead of my usual get-out-of-bed-wash-face-brush-teeth-get-dressed-get-out-of-door-oops-keys!-regular lifestyle.
And guess what?
It feels good, too!
 
One word....F-R-I-D-A-Y, which mean weekend!

As for the "nothing" from yesterday, occasionally i get a bit low, depressed or what you want to call it, when my dead friends pop into my mind, all 7 of them.....
Sometimes wonder "what if they would have been alive today......" You know....

Oh well!
