HELLO FRIDAY
Hello Friday - I've been wondering where you went. I'm actually not a believer in hurrying any week along - life's way to short for that, but it's Friday and I'm happy about that. Friday the 13th in fact. Whoo hoo!
The bill paying experience yesterday: The office I've been going to for the past, I don't how many months - well they went and closed up and moved out on me. Totally moved out. Even the tiles are gone off the floor. No pre-warning. Just a little note on the glass. And this should not surprise me - not in the least. Here, nothing should ever surprise anyone. The office was at Mal Fantasi, but that place is going through a huge reno these days. Aside from the Hero Supermarket and a few little clothing shops - there's pretty much nothing left. So off we went to scout out the new office. And that's how we ended up in the middle of a road construction spot.
The new plan - well, turns out the new office is very close to the driver's house and he's gonna look after this. Thank you, thank you, you're the best. And the other Me will be happy too - Indovision for one more month.
So, this is how you make a road (bigger) in Balikpapan. Yeahhh! What a surprise that was. This is the little road that carries on from the 'Red Bridge' on your way to the other side of town. They're making that skinny little road a little bigger for all the cars, and trucks and motorcycles to get down. Found out the hard way yesterday when we got stuck in the middle of all of it. And all that sidewalk on the left - that's brand new too. Wholly Balikpapan - things are looking up! Pretty soon Jalan Pandjaitan just might end being the biggest street in town.
TODAY: Can't believe I actually got this post out in the morning today. First time this week, I think. Good start to the day.
Our friend is coming to town today - an unexpected-unplanned trip. Looking forward to seeing him and he's spending the night our house. Good deal! Hope you bring your darts along.
Good day for peanut butter chocolate chip and good day to go for lunch. See you soon girls.
Good to go!
PS: Sorry I left the darn key in door last night. Pretty hard to unlock it when the key is left in on the other side. Ooops.
