It went well. I'd been away four months so getting up early is taking some getting used to. They haven't got me back on classes yet so I'm doing all
sorts of bits and pieces to make up my fraction, which may be easy money but I'd much rather be back teaching classes and being fully occupied. I'm a
bit nervous about my prospects for contract renewal at the end of the year but the feedback I've been getting so far seems positive in that respect.

My helping around during a tour of Haarlem with a group of vision-impaired youngsters got my mug in a newspaper.

Yup! She suddenly stood in front of me as the photographer was about to take the picture, so I had to decide quick where I was going to stand so that
I'd be in the shot. Shame I didn't opt for the other side.

She's certainly taking up more than her fair share of room in that shot.
Anyway, I've finished my first week back at work and all is going well. I still can't quite shake this "looking over my shoulder" feeling but things
seem to have settled down quite well. I've got one more concern that I'll be checking with my specialist later in the week and if that turns out
alright maybe the following week I might start to get a little excited about it all.

That's sounding good there, Poly! I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
Had an action-packed day. Hit the town to get Gran's last film developed.
Then I went to search the rest of the town, to get my sister birthday presents, to look for cheap high heels so I can partake in the stiletto run, and
to visit a museum that's closing down in a few months.
Film will be developed next week.
I didn't reach the museum until 10 minutes before closing time.
Didn't find anything else I could possibly buy. No, nothing, nothing at all.
Came home to find Dad clearing the garage.
Unfortunately Gran's fridge had been closed, so mold had formed in it, which I had to clean. BLEGH!!

I saw an advertisement for the season premiere of Criminal Minds and thought of you today Bonny. It has Tim Curry in it. I think you can catch the
episode on the CBS site after it airs, if you don't get it there.

Yeah it''s the sequel of the Season 5 final, which I have seen already. The scriptwriting wasn't stellar, and although it's great to see the face
behind the voice, when listening to Joe Mantegna I can't help but think "Fat Tony!". But Tim's performance is much loved, although he really frightens
most of the girls at the Curry fanforum I frequent. Cute.
I'm sad to see him smoke though.

Just dropping by to say hi. Nothing to report. I've finished two weeks back at work and now I'm on holiday, crazy timing.

Today's Gran's birthday. We're off to visit The Hague today.
Absolutely nothing went wrong with baking my pie. Isn't it amazing?

That concern I mentioned above turned out to be nothing sinister so tonight I may allow myself to celebrate.

Yay! Time to get excited!
Today I hit the town centre again, to pick up the photos I'd sent for printing. My grandmother had made two more photos, that hadn't been developed
yet.
One of them is a photo with too much light. It depicts two dogs in front of the heater. Since it was taken at low height, I assume it was taken by a
cousin.
The second one is more interesting. It has too little light, but the depicted is still clear: Grandma herself at the photographer's, apparently
struggling after her camera got new film.

Thanks Bonny. BTW, I don't want to put my foot in it, but you talk about your Grandmother is that on your Father's side?
Thanks for your wishes Punky.

Read on DZW that Huck_Phlem AKA Flammaster got hit by a car, got a skull fracture, spine fracture, broken finger and broken collar bone.
Wishing you all the best, Huck! :bisou:

Yes, that's on Dad's side. The one on mother's side died in 1990 or so. She was very sweet.

oh wow!
Sure hope he's got insurance and a way to pay for that!!!
I mean, that's a horrible accident that could cripple him for life even if he has sufficient medical care.
But Without proper rehab after ...
Wait: hit by a car? Does that mean he was on his bike?
Awful. I feel so sad for him ... and his son now too.
Who's gonna look after them?
