Alone

Family is gone for the weekend to Tar, for a Buddhist retreat - whew, what a relief, I am alone home.
I am quite a lone wolf sometimes, I need solitude and privacy very much. I miss Csabi a bit, but I cannot deny that feel quite good now. Especially with this glass of semi-sweet wine here :-) I however did not have too much of rest until now.
I have just sent one of the assignments to my prof and I am supposed to send the next one on Monday the latest - I realized that the deadline is not Wednesday but Monday. !%+"+%/

Friday I took a day off as we got some new furniture from parents-in-law and I had to help bringing it home and installing in our room. After then they immediately left so I had to sort out the old and unused stuff and make sure they land in the waste bin. I am pretty good at throwing useless things out - even if those are memories from others.
I don't want my place to look like a museum :-)

So I got rid of two huge plastic bags of female cloths and a big box of jewels that I have not used since quite a while ago. I give the clothes and the jewels to the homeless and poor.
I finished making some order only today, so in the afternoon I cleaned up the whole apartment and now it feels good to stay in a clean and tidy place.
After then I quickly run over to the confectionery in the neighbour street where a few days ago I ordered a huge cherry-yoghurt cake for my mom. Tomorrow I go and visit her - today she is 55 years old.
So tomorrow early morning I leave again with 2 kgs of bean, 1 kg of walnut and a huge smoked trotters in my backpack - she loves bean soup with this smoked meat.
I will have the cake with me too and will greet her. I am not going to stay long as I have to get back home before 4 p.m. Csabi is expected to return at that time so I need to cook some dinner for him.

Also, thanks to this huge cleaning - sorting project that I did all day today and yesterday, I was not able to work on my other assignment about the Kashrut, so now I go and start compiling it. Tomorrow hopefully I can complete it and can send it on Monday, if everything goes well.
Then I will feel more relieved and hopefully I can finally respond to some emails which have been waiting in my mailbox so patiently for about 2 weeks now... Shame on me ...
Mark-knight, please bear with a lil' more patience, email is going to you as soon as I finish with this terrible assignment... (and send me your up to date snail-mail address ;-) )

B4 I forget: This week I managed to go to the only one Panasonic service shop in Budapest that has USB cable which is compatible with my digital camera. I forgot mine in the Tenshiyama apartment in Japan :-( I was thinking for a while whether or not I should ask the SlumLord to find it and send it to me, or if it was easier for everyone if I went and bought another one. I decided by the latter one. Who knows when the SlumLord would be able to make it :-))
So now finally I managed to get the pics that I took this year in Japan.
As soon as I finish with this second assignment I will put them on the blog, so patience, my dear fellows...

Kung-fu master, you are on two of them, I will send them to you soon :-)) Btw, I hope you got my greeting card ;-) Congrats, Old Goat! ;-)
