Bad - I realised I am probably more jaded than usual. On noticing a slight bump all I could think was "haven't you already given enough to society already ?". When I asked somebody for an explanation, all I could think was "please make it an original lie, please, please , please, if it is I might even let you get away with it", and all the while I knew I was going to be disappointed. Good - Bumped into an old friend I had not seen for a while and she is going to organise some get together or other at some point in November. V-bad - pondering about some stuff at work which diminished further my faith in human nature. Made me ask myself questions about the way I raise my child and made me wonder about the reasons why he is such a compliant little boy. I would like to think he behaves well because he likes to have the approval of the people who love him. I would hate to think it is because he is scared of me. I wonder if I'll ever find out. Smug: school newsletter touched on the main shortcoming mentioned in my letter to the Head of The Boy's school (only with a lovely twist, he confirmed he is of the invertebrate variety as he won't be making the decision to remedy it, he'll ask the governors - makes me want to shout "you are meant to be the leader... lead!!!!!") ;-) - I may not speak Urdu but I can speak French and it came in useful today.
A mixed day
