Monday

Why is it that having a fabulous weekend makes it harder to return to work on Monday morning? Although I'm not sure that it's not harder after you've had a less-than-fabulous weekend. Human perception is an incredible thing, isn't it - and mostly - well, okay, all - driven by us ... according to the trainer who took us through the Stress Management course at work this afternoon. It wasn't bad although he did seem to go through the material fairly quickly. He seemed like someone who hadn't done a lot of them so he was on not quite familiar territory. He was also playing to a fairly hard crowd - which may have had a little to do with his kilometre/mile-a-minute presentation style and/or his need to impart as much knowledge as possible in the shortest time possible.
M and S saw Mouse today and report that Pearl is well and happy and probably enjoying a great big gourmet dinner tonight because Mouse takes such good care of her. This will be Pearl's last visit to Nana (I think) for a couple of months. M's sister and her grandson are coming to stay with Mouse on Thursday so they are starting to think about a range of activities while they are here - including how to keep an almost-teenage boy entertained. Let's see if his idea of being let loose to wander around Surfers Paradise alone with just his skateboard for company is one of them.
