halafalala or in other words...

w00t! First of all, it's Friday, 'nuff said.

The week went well and ended on a high note. Alex got high marks in his class at Bergh's and even helped a classmate pass so that was exciting! I know how hard he worked on the last assignments and how stressed he felt that he just wasn't getting it. Turned out, he was and I'm so proud of him.

My work went well. No unexpected surprises and everyone was in a good mood no doubt induced by the presence of the sun. I know that has helped my mood incredibly.

Ate dinner at my Mom's. My sister Verda cooked, tuna casserole...blech...but the company was good. We played the obligatory hand of Canasta (I lost) and all was well. My brother is a complete nut. He kept insisting that his head was shrinking. This was even funnier because he is completely bald and he kept rubbing his head with both hands and a very worried look on his face. Also got a good laugh at my sister Terry, who gets all her information on everything from her customers at the hair salon, trying to explain the purpose of the upcoming tax rebate checks we are all going to be getting. She starts almost every sentence with "well, the husband of one of my ladies says..." so you know it has to be true.

Came home and decided to make myself a very good drink and read some and listen to the very cool stuff on my iPod. Nice way to end a week. Here comes the weekend! w00t!
