wiseheartPeople apparently believe that I was waiting for my retirement so that I could work even more!
It started with the colleague whose son I'm now helping with his German, so that he can take his exams in two months' time.
It continued with the cleaning ladies who've just quit, claiming that now I can do my own cleaning (I've elaborated about that a few posts ago).
And now Mum's decided that the big house redecorating is overdue - which is very true, but the mere thought of it gives me the shivers. The guy who's supposed to do the work with his team is coming this evening to take a look at things. Joy. [/sarcasm]
What part of "fed up with working" people don't understand?
Not to mention that February will be spent with merry walks to the authorities to make my retirement actually happen. I'm currently still employed, just freed from actual work.
Oh and I just had a nice long phone chat with our telly and Internet provider. Apparently, the package we've had until now is running out and won't be available any longer. We get a "much better one" - which, of course, will cost more. But what can I do? I'm actually very satisfied with them, and I need reliable Internet, as much as Mum needs her telly. *sigh*
