Current Mood: just fine

Tomorrow is the first day of summer, and I find that a bit disconcerting. Although we’ve been sweating it out for quite a while, it’s strange to say that summer is here now. I tell you, time doesn’t only fly when you’re having fun!!

The heat is really getting to me (and not only to me, see Simba on the left LOL), and I’m biting my tongue really hard not to say I wish it was winter… always the same old story!

Ok, I’m not going to do the moaning thing. Actually I’m in a pretty good mood. It’s the weekend, my latest deadline at work has come and gone (and been met, of course), plus I have an additional day off on Monday because I worked the Manager on Duty shift last Sunday.  And to top it all, I’m looking forward to a whole week off work in September – it does sound as though it’s far away, but the next 3 months (less, really!) will be gone in a hurry, too. Oh, and I almost forgot the best part: Hubby and I are going to Berlin for four days of that week, for the wedding of my “little” sister who’s going to get married for the first time at the tender age of 47. We’re going to stay at the legendary Hotel Adlon Kempinski, which is yet another reason to look forward to that trip!!

All in all those four days are a total luxury, even without counting in the stay at the Adlon. I had started saving a few euro every month, to buy the Canon EOS 5D Mark II one day – *drool*. But when I heard the news from my sister I just couldn’t resist booking those flights… It is a very special occasion, after all, and the 5D can wait a little longer.

Until then, work is likely to remain hectic, and my blog unlikely to be updated very often. I’d also like to apologise to people who e-mail me for advice… Strangely there has been a handful in the space of a few days. I’m really sorry to quash your hopes but I don’t have time for my stuff, leave alone for researching yours. I’m saying this without a hint of sarcasm. I love helping when I can – but right now I simply can’t. Sorry.

I have the feeling there was something else I meant to say, but my brain’s blank. So for now, I wish you all a happy weekend – and a great summer too, just in case it might be September already when I sit down for my next post!

Oh, and Simba sends his greetings from atop the wall unit…

Bye!
