Another Good Stuff/Bad Stuff update
Jun. 25th, 2007 08:33 pmGood Stuff
I got a small raise last month. So I finally bought myself a new laptop computer. Nothing fancy, mind you, but one with working batteries that won't overheat and shut down when the word files grow too large. I didn't pay cash but financed it - and the good thing is: the monthly installments amount to exactly the same amount as my raise. Heee.
Bad Stuff
In December 2004 I had two root canal treatments which both ended up inflamed. Last summer,I had surgery on both roots. And now both teeth are inflamed again. Meaning I am going to lose them both. Baah. What annoyes me most is the fact that I spent a lot of money on these procedures and on getting the teeth capped. If I buy a telly and it breaks down shortly afterwards, I can get it replaced at no cost - why can't I get my money back from the dentist who screwed up the initial root canal treatment?
Oh well, maybe it's good if the tooth comes out. Can't be healthy to have such an infection linger for years.
Our dishwashing machine has had it, more or less. We need a new kitchen because the old one that came with this appartment sucks. Alas, we don't have the money for our dream kitchen. We're comparing prices and looking at kitchens, but I don't think we'll actually buy one. *sigh*
Good Stuff
The girls were in the local newspaper. There was a picture of Viktoria and Katharina was mentioned. The article was about their success at the Irish Dance feis (competition) in Wassenaar (Holland). Ok, so the competition was held half a year ago, but still. People took notice. And publicity for our dance club is always appreciated.
Best Stuff (saved for last)
I am working on my play again. Ages ago I started to write a play, a dance adaptation of Cinderella. And then I ran into writer's block. But these past two weeks I started working on it again, and I think I made a breakthrough. I had several good ideas. So, I'm creative again. Yay.
Oh, and I wrote a new poem. Double yay!
