Day 558 - Oh Happy Day!

A rather frustrating day for Jaco & I. His passport still isn't back & he still needs to apply for a Shengen visa. The dreams of Norway are getting a little gritty. Grr... I'm frustrated at the slack SA procedures! 


But... On a high note (pun intended!) we scored tickets to Roxette! Yay! I'm a huge fan & although I'm sure it would've been sweet to see them in their heyday, I'll take what I can get! So, Jaco, Carmen, Charlene & Charlene's other half are joining me for a fabulous night out! I can hardly wait! I'm going to be singing out loud for the next 6 months! Yippee! 





The tickets were hard to get, by the way. All three Cape Town shows were sold out & I basically stalked Gumtree (SA's version of Kijiji) all day to score tickets. I had to buy 5 to get two, but it's working out well! Ha!


And the other high point of the day... very high! I had to stay up until 0200 to get it, but I finally got to see the dogs! Mom picked them up today & took her laptop with her so we could Skype. Oooh! I miss Tweet Pea & Oceana! They look just darling! I miss them so much! It made my day to see their little faces! And Valentina still recognized my voice! All is not lost!


That's it for today... Oh & I made raw tabbouleh & stuffed avocados. Day 3 of detox. 10% down the hatch!
