Magic

Well for you and a lot of other people and especially children it means someone on tv or on stage performing magic acts which leave you wondering how they did it, but for me after the last week it means something else. It all started when I won a fair amount of euros on a online casino app, so I began by paying off bills so that I don't get reminders through the post, that was great so when I saw I had money left I wondered what else I should do with the money, buying a few things for the house, a new lawn mower, having enough money to give the children some for Easter, paying for my wife and daughter to have their nails done as they do every month but this month it didn't come out of their purse which made things a lot easier for them. So I had used up quite a bit of my winnings and I started thinking what I should do now so I put enough money aside to pay for pizza when the whole family was together, so what now I thought about the most important person in my life which is my wife, I asked my son what would be a nice surprise for her and he replied that I should take her out for a meal so I waited for her to come home from work and I asked her if she would like to go to a restaurant, just the two of us and she said that she would rather have a ring instead so as I had enough money left I said ok then you can have both, the smile on her face was magic. A few days later we went shopping after me telling her don't worry about how much it costs and after looking around the jewelry shops she eventually chose one that she really liked so I paid for it and after having a coffee we went back to the car and she gave me a kiss and a hug and said thank you, now that's magic. We decided on where and when we would go to a restaurant, so we decided on Saturday after work so now there was just the waiting and it made me feel younger again as though we had just got engaged, a ring and a special meal just us without any hassle or worry about money and a few hours without having to worry about anything. The time came for us to get ready, so I put on a pair of trousers not trainers, shoes so that that would make her happy she of course dressed up and after taking a few pictures we set off. We arrived at the restaurant and had a cup of coffee and an aperative before we went to our table. The waitress showed us to our table, gave us the menus and we had something to drink while deciding what we were going to eat, we ordered and after a while our order arrived, enough to feed three or four people but we ate our fill and what was left we took home with us, ali through the meal my wife was taking photos of what we were eating, then the waitress came back and asked if we wanted desert, there was no way I could eat dessert as well but my wife ordered pancakes with nuts, chocolate and ice cream, it was hard going for her to eat it all but she said that she wasn't going to waste any and in the end we had finished, full stomachs and a smile on her face, we had another cup of coffee and waited for the bill, paid and left. As we were drinking she told me that this was the first time we had been out for a meal together since our honeymoon which surprised me but she always remembered that sort of thing but I knew that she was happy, now after writing about it I have to say that those two things meant a lot to her and that for me was pure Magic but magic like that doesn't happen every day it's a memory that will last but when it does it is really worth while just seeing the smile on your partners face, puer, pure Magic.

Pride

Pride, no it's not the organization that supports the gay community but I'm not against free speech, it's an emotion that one feels in someone or something. Firstly I have pride in myself who is not the most handsome or likeable person in the world but luckily enough for finding and marrying a wonderful wife and mother to our three children, coming to Croatia, risking my life so that in the end Croatia got independence from communism, being able to support our family, having enough money to be financially sound, not rich but enough to pay the bills and have food on the table. Pride in my son who has gone through college, found a job and is saving for what he wants and deserves, my eldest daughter for becoming a supermarket manager, engaged, healthy and happy with her life, most of the time, looking for a house to be able to settle down and perhaps make my wife and myself grandparents, my second daughter who is working her way through college, living in rented accommodation ...

T+L

Well at long last it seems that there may be a break in our heatwave, last night after the temperature hitting a huge 40 degrees it started to thunder and lightning but did the heavens open for rain to fall, no only a few spots, I could probably drink more water than fell from the sky, at least it's a little cooler 19 and set to rise to a reasonable 35 degrees which is a bit more bearable. It's Sunday the end of the weekend and again it seems that my wife and I will be on our own, my youngest daughter and her fiance are going here and there to visit his family and I'm not sure if my eldest daughter will be here so it's going to be a weird Sunday but peaceful. It's going well for Ukraine from looking at all the media as Ukraine is still taking over more of russia and blowing up bridges so the idiot can't resupply his troops and he is also bombing his own country with missiles, what a shame the ordinary people who so called voted for the puppet master are having t...
