Off Again.
I'm ready to board my fifth flight in the last ten days. I'm on five out of twelve over a 25 day period. I had just nicely gotten rid of the hangover cough/cold from my Xmas flu and now I have another cough and losing my voice. I'm calling it the plane cough, I'm sure it's because of flying. I don't think there's anything worse for your immune system than excessive flying. NJ seems to like it less and less each time I go away, even though he understands and he's getting older... I'm missing stuff, I can't help with homework all the time. I wonder how long I can do this for. That's just today! Mostly I'm ok. When he cries it's heartbreaking and it was totally unrelated to my going away (hours spent on a presentation that was poo-pooed by the teacher for being too short - it was 16 slides FFS, we spent hours/days/weeks on it)!! I love NJ's teacher, but I could have bit*h slapped him when my little boy came out of school today with tears streaming down his face!
Abu Dhabi tonight, Dubai tomorrow night, back home Tuesday evening for two nights in my own bed before we jet off to Koh Samui (yaaaay).
Work's stressful, there are too few hours in the day, I'm not sure I really enjoy my job at the moment but it's not a good time to move. I like my team, I like most of the people I work with, but I mostly feel like I'm not being heard.
Pokeno was fun, hangover not too bad. We only left the house on Friday to go to the supermarket and pick up NJ's new specs, he looks so handsome in them, biased I know! Watched the two Percy Jackson films this weekend, sorted out some rugby stuff and packed another case.
It's cold here, I don't like the cold very much, an understatement to those who know me well. It's not what I signed up for. Another month and my company have said they will inform me what a local package will look like.... I'm cynical I know, but I don't expect it in my Email box on the 1st of next month.
There's a lot going on, but I'm cold, so I'm miserable. Soup and vodka in the lounge is not warming me through. I'm longing for my bed, not a hotel bed in the Holiday Inn in Abu Dhabi, which I'm sure was full of cheap hookers the last time I stayed there......
