It's been a busy week, son and girlfriend are here, Peter returned from Pakistan with food poisoning and I've been at work every day.
Jamie and Lottie have had plans for everyday, including the Burj Khalifa and a desert Safari and I've been running them around to various places in the evening, mainly the beach and I've enjoyed a couple of swims and just chilling out.
I'm off now for a week due to Eid, only been back in school for 2 weeks, then apart from a couple of public holidays, the next school holiday isn't until December 18th.
Day 248 Sunday - The laminator over heated from being over worked.
Day 249 Monday Bob enjoying his new toy
Day 250 Tuesday Shopping for stationery for school
Day 251 Wednesday Chilling on the beach after a swim
Day 252 Thursday have now added a school laptop to the iPad and now my life is complete, no more e-mailing myself work and spending hours persuading 'someone' to upload my photo's to my desk top.
Day 253 Friday It's the weekend in Dubai, off to Dragon Mart for a spot of shopping, stopping off at the nature reserve to see the flamingoes.
Day 254 Saturday Spent the day chauffeuring Jamie and Lottie and Bob around, 1st stop an unsuccessful breakfast trip to Denny's, followed by taking Bob to a snow party, having brunch that we were due at around 5pm, cancelled by The Ivy at 3.30pm, so drove round the Palm, stopping for photo's and dinner at the Madinat.
It must have been nice to have your son there this week, but Saturday sounds a bit frustrating.
ReplyDeletelooking forward to going back to work now for a rest....lol
DeletePoor Peter, hope he is feeling better now. You have been busy busy busy already but hope you get some rest during the long EID week off.
ReplyDeleterest? what is that?
Deletethat seems a late cancellation. Glad you have some time off to spend with your son and his GF. Nice to get a swim in the sea.
ReplyDeletewe have coastguards and lifeguards now on the beach, so a lot more swimming will be happening
DeleteLove the look of the evening trip to the beach. Sounds like a busy week, hope you've all had fun and that Peter is feeling better x
ReplyDeleteyep Peter is feeling a little better and we're still having fun
DeleteIt must have been lovely to have your son over. I love the photo of the stationery. It must be a relief to have a school laptop to work with. My desk top isn't connecting to the internet any more, but it's the only thing I can print from, so I'm constantly saving stuff on a stick and moving it around.
ReplyDeleteso much easier now with the laptop, although i do have my own it was wearing me down all the transferring back and forth
DeleteI love your project 366, it always seems so real even though you're so far removed from where I am. Bet it was nice to have your son and his girlfriend over.
ReplyDeleteit's been lovely having them here. life is just the same here in Dubai, still have to clean the loo's and iron the clothes
DeleteArgh that sounds like a long drag to the Christmas holiday! And nothing more frustrating than a broken laminator ;)
ReplyDeleteit sure is a long time to go, but the government just announced a long weekend next week
