Last Thursday, finally, my cable TV was sorted out. They put a new device which will be the same one for digital TV. The good news is that now, for the same plan (and price) I already had, I´ve got German, French, Spanish and Italian TV, plus 6 more movie channels. Not bad…
Yesterday evening I watched “Little Miss Sunshine” at Telecine Premium (the new releases channel) and loved it. What a good movie. All the actors are excellent and the story truly entertains you.
There is also a very strange thing that happened. I´ve got a prepaid mobile which was given to me buy my husband, while I was still living in New Zealand. When I came back to Brasil, I bought TIM´s SIM card which is compatible with Vodaphone´s and never had any problems sending msgs to Cam. Last week, out of the blue, I cant send msgs to him anymore. I tried everything to find out what was the problem. Contacted TIM many times (they didnt have a clue – only tried to sell me a new mobile), sent msgs to Gerald in Australia and to cam´s father and friend in NZ – it worked well! – and got my husband to contac Vodaphone. PS: I can recieve msgs whitout any problems. The thing is, Vodaphone also has no idea about what the problem is so we, Cam and I, can NOT send msgs to each other anymore.
This week at work was the usual boring thing but at least I didnt have any stress with stupid co-workers. There is no computer for everybody there and at the beginning I still bothered trying hard to do my tasks. Not anymore. Actually, I dont give a shit now. Just go there everyday to work the necessary amount of hours and just want to receive my salary. That´s all. By the way, I am so upset with how much taxes I have to pay on my salary every month. Its almost 40% including social security. Too much!!! Even if I liked my job, the taxes would make me lose all my enthusiasm for sure.
Well, even with all the odds, I dont quit my job because I am able to save money to our (Cam & I) egg nest (just for ourselves, no “in-laws included) plus my job guarantees a pension for both of us when we get old, for Cam only (if I die first) and for our child. This is so important! Besides, we are both 41 years old. We are not young anymore and have to think about those things. I even got us (Cam & I) a life insurance, which I am able to pay thanks to my job.
But I want my work leave back. I want it.
The weather is so hot and humid here. I cant live without my air conditioner. It would be impossible to sleep without it. Its like you have a shower and, unless you stay locked inside a room with full air conditioning, you will be totally sweaty. No flies or other insects thought.
I LOVE showers. It feels so good and refreshing. The water has a great purifying power. Its works like magic. Oh! How I wish Cam and I were in Paraty now, swimming, feeling free and happy!!!!
My PC´s mouse is not working anymore. That´s good I kept the old one because the mouse I was using til yesterday was very hot and probably had something burnt inside….
This is my Sunday morning and soon I will be going to have lunch at the aunties. If it wasnt so terribly hot I´d be happy to walk towards their place and do some exercise.
