Of Gadgetlust Rewards...
I got Bea's grades early Saturday morning and the results were dismal. Don't get me wrong, I'm still somewhat satisfied with her grades and she's doing a fine job (and she's not failing, which is already very good for me). I'm not pushing her too much and because of my new practice in a law firm, I have not been putting in too much on the home front (which includes helping her in her studies). So in a sense, I am ultimately to blame if I did not like her grades. I have to put in more effort with her and also Nico.
So to "reward" her for her performance, I took her to her doctor for a long-overdue Typhoid vaccination shot.
Some reward.
Anyway, the rewards of last year's efforts have started to trickle in. And part of the reward entails me getting a flute upgrade soon. It could have been earlier, had I had the funds then. But when I got back to the store, the only remaining unit has been sold. They offered to order me a new one and the good thing here is, I can order the model of flute I really want.
But there is a new reward in the offing.
The new car, though, is out of the picture. But in its place is a budget to satisfy my gadgetlust for a long, long time. Only thing is we don't know when that client will deliver. But it has to be soon for his sake. He has the big problem, not us.
That's why I was able to resist the temptation to get a new 160Gb iPod Classic yesterday with my flute budget. I know I can still get that with the big, big gadgetlust budget we are going to get.
And for that, I'm grateful. For everything.
Anyway, here's to a rewarding week ahead of us.
