100 Days of Happiness – Day 87

Once again I find myself writing with a backlog of days as I have been kept away from my computer by having fun so I am having trouble remembering what I actually did today but I definately remember what happened in the evening and it was pretty A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. It’s funny how the world works and […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 70

This morning when I woke I heard what sounded like heavy rain so thought I would stay in bed as long as Samudra would allow before it was time for his nanny to arrive.  I gave him a bath and then opened the bedroom door as we were going to the table for me to […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 5

Yet again I was home too late last night to be able to post my day’s happiness, so I have to post it a day late again. I have been to many weddings during my time in Indonesia, most of them I had never met the bride and groom before, but was taken along as […] Read more »

100 Days of Happiness – Day 2

Today started with more heavy rain and flooding but I managed to make it along briefly to the BWA Playgroup in Pejaten for a quick song circle with all the kids and Samudra half asleep.. I also managed to go for a long walk around the complex while the sun was out, with the aim […] Read more »
