More Rain and One Year Older

Seriously, is this summer? Midjuly and weather sucks big time. We have had rain three weekends in a row, what are the chances of that?

  • The inevitable happened last night. Germany won the world cup. Neighbours had firework and were beeping their horns forever, and ever. And ever after that. Glad life is back to normal again. No late nights watching footie (read: waiting for hubby to come to bed).
  • I turned 40 on July 12. Now that sucks. If I felt 39 was kind of a useless age, well 40 is completely nonsense. There is nothing 40 about me. I would still spend my Sundays watching TV in my PJ, hadn`t I had my two little girls. I had this conversation with some girl at lunch today, talking about ages. "-She: you must be around 35 right? -ME: no, I just turned 40." You should have seen her face.40 is the new conversation killer. We had a small party here in the garden. My present to myself was 12 bottles of Champagne from my favourite vineyard in, yep, Champagne. Problem is that I drink it like soda. So nice.
  • Today was  the big day. First day we were both working full time again. Time will tell if we sink or float. Currently we are just hanging in there. 
  • Olivia has been at the nursery for two weeks. Such a trooper. Why was I worrying so much? (well, she is my little super cute fragile baby still, though she is getting tougher by the day)
