I have invited 12 people for lunch today. I am almost ready..... and it seems to be a very interesting day. I am looking forward to going back to my students tomorrow by the way, after my 2 weeks and 3 days holidays! I missed them.

I just found out Easyjet fly to Tel Aviv, so I am uber excited to have booked cheap flights for a short break in the holiday period that my current job is making me take (I know, the trauma! ) before I leave to start my new one! Shalom!!

My mood today is veeeeeeeeery good. I'm working from home, sitting in front of a log fire - about to make some nice hot soup for lunch!!
It seems that every time you are working from home Paula you are excited!
I am also excited because I am going to Athens after one and a half months to see my children and grandchildren, as well as get to the centre and do some shopping. There are great SALES now on in Greece! 40 - 50% off.

Good for you guys!
I am disappointed because I had the opportunity to buy two tickets for Mexico for March in a real bargain - 400 euros including taxes, and by the time we decided to book, the tickets were sold out! I saw that there were just 4 left and I had to hurry, but by the time I got all the information I needed it was too late.

I am disappointed today. I am trying to help some locals expand their business and then I find out that they are trying to take my money while I am donating my time to help them.

Why is this? Please tell us more about this. In what way are you trying to help them, and how did you find out?

My mood is great..... I am travelling right now going from Athens to Evia. It is winter AT LAST in Greece! I am in the suburbs of Athens - Agios Stefanos and it is snowing. It's the first time I have seen snow this year!

I see snow 365 days a year looking out my window....Kilimanjaro. My mood is great today, I have caught up on lots of things that I had been procrastinating about. That always feels great!

if we knew you were after snow over Xmas we could've done a house swap!!!!!! -5 and a foot of snow for our xmas...we hated every minute of it...
I am excited watching the snow fall, but I don't want snow on working days! Luckily there is no snow in the area I live. I am satisfied that I saw it, and thankful that I don't have it!

I'm a little thrown off by the lack of snow around here this year. Normally I have to shovel the drive once a week, but this winter I've shovelled exactly once. And even that was pointless as the rest melted within two days.

I am in a good mood although outside it is freezing cold. I have a busy day today with many lessons, but I am also busy putting new videos in my entries. Lot's of work to be done, plus exercising, but it gives me pleasure.
