    November 29 2009

    The girls have left early this morning with their father.
    He can travel for free and take them with him for a low fee, and that's better than sending them off alone or that I'm going with them. Even though I would' [...]

  • Why do people get a loan for christmas?

    november 28 2009

    I can't believe people get a loan to buy christmaspresents.

    We're not very rich people, money wise, but there's more to christmas than presents.

    When I see the huge toys which are bought, I've spilled a few tears in the past because I couldn't [...]

    november 25 2009

    Finally time to go to the hospital to have my eyes checked.

    Not my hobby, but it had to be done.
    Diabetes can cause small bleeds in the eye and when you're in time these bleeds can be controlled with laser therapy.

    november 19 2009

    I was surfing around a bit and found a blogpost about appetite enhancers for children.

    I can't believe parents would use them to make their children eat, or eat more.
    It's like everything is medicalised these days.
