A holiday...really???

Everyone is twittering about "Oh no, back to school, clock watching and homework".

AND all i am thinking is 'peace at last!'

Have you ever tried working from home with four children in the house?  Music blaring, TV full blast and everyone fighting over who's turn it is for the computer?....Not forgetting the constant whining of "Muuuummmmyyy" every five minutes and "I'm hungry!"

My concentration on a good day is pretty poor, but holidays....well, the only time to work is after story time.  So whilst most people look refreshed after the Easter break, I am generally in need of sleep and a real holiday (not to mention prosac)!!!

On the world and national 'news' front considering I volunteer to help with a local news blog I know very little of the world outside facebook/twitter and island gossip at the moment.  I'm however becoming an expert on 'accidents' that have taken place around the island, as that seems to be the only thing in the news lately...(and the crisis of course, mustn't forget that...as if we could!!!)

So yes, it's tourist season again!!! Watch out for motorcyclists, push bikes and cars in Kos (especially those with hire car stickers on).  In fact, probably best  not to drive at all.

My car is surprisingly still going and finally has a new radiator so i even managed a trip to Kefalos last week!  The window system is a bit dodgy and will need changing, but hoping to win the lottery (haha), so i can just get a whole new car instead.

I quickly managed to read (or flick really), through a magazine over the weekend so as far as FASHION  (and what I have seen in the shops lately) goes, although don't forget I am no expert (still wearing the same pair of jeans for the last 3 years, although since Easter slightly tighter)....

You can pick and mix your styles up this season with pastels shades and lacy vintage, or go loud and bold with bright block colours or imaginative prints.  For evening go shimmery whites, bronze or silvery greys. 

A tan helps of course, which is all you will probably get if you are living under the Greek sun this summer!!!

OMG has to be that for some reason (it could be an age thing) , I cannot seem to look at a man in the face lately for very long.  I seem to have developed a  habit of looking at their crotches.  Of course I then realise I've done it,   go bright red, stutter (if in conversation), and then do it again...ahhhhh!!!!

(Please tell me it's not just me that does this!!!)

So sunglasses it is....morning, afternoon and evening from now on!!!

Short post, but best go have a cold shower now just thinking about 'things'!!!
