no lol not at all
well first I payed nothing as it was a birthday present from my Andy few years ago,
and it was 30 pounds, the title for 200 is a different title higher then a baroness is for count or countess, but I am pleased with being a baroness so I not need to be a countess. I might have a go and get me the id card though, as I think this is very funny and it costs just 25 pounds which lol is even less then i have to pay here for my id card all however many years when it needs to get reviewed
Would they found a national poker team and well take me for it ;-) I would even buy some "land" :D
Starshine:
so this week won"t be much about poker, as I simply not much time to play. I was quite happy so that yesterday I at least reached the points just so and with nearly no chips anymore in the online league hooray, not that it was much helpfull for my team :"(
But this week it will be a lot working (and yes i do play poker while working ;) but mainly coolers, and there is really nothing much to say bout coolers except there nice, easy to go, and only bout sitting tight :D)
and besides working I have to focus on a sad point in my life, which is not easy, but has to be done. My dear neighbour who was my neighbour for 25 years died after suffering with her illness and lot of pain on September 23rd. It was still a shock even though we have the last few month known she been ill, even though i was sitting on her last day 7 hours with her, but this is my mind having hope till the last moment. So I am going through a lot of things with my mind currently. The thing is that even though we been neighbours so long and had really good contact we never have been in each others flat. One day we even put chairs in our doors and sat there and had a gossip but never went to visit us in flat. This changed when she finally sort off stopped hiding she is ill. Not that she was very successful with hiding the last one and a half years as I did notice, but she never spoke about. In her last few weeks she still not spoke, but finally let me help. So this been the time I fist time was in her flat, not looked much around though as I was focused on her. And now I am there daily. She not has family in Munich, her niece and sister come from a different part in bavaria so it is for granted that I help them with things.
Which gives me in times a complete new impression of my neighbour. Not in a bad way so. i have known she is helpful, always there for others, patient and so on. But now is the other things, like music i would not have expected or books and so on. It is like I go a deeper level in getting to know her, and it feels bit odd as there is no quid pro quo for it.
So I actually even started talking with her when I am in her flat,
or well even in my flat, as oh dear she has so many things. So her family sort of urged me to take a lot, which made me feel bit bad as well.
so besides work i am busy with sorting things out in my place, finding place for her stuff after i fall a couple of times bout the china (not damaged god bless). I managed successfully not doing much the last two weeks, always found something else to do, but now it can"t be delayed anymore. Her flat needs to get done as the landlord wants it empty. And my flat needs urgently to look at least a bit less then a warzone.
So I actually wanted to start 3 hours ago, but instead i was sitting here making a plan in my mind, thinking around and saying to myself oh one more cigarette then i shall start.
But now right after this post I finally will start doing the sort outs, as in 6 hours I have to work, and her family come tomorrow and i promised till then to have few things out her flat. And what as well is important I get a good friend coming tomorrow (Wolfgang, or how I call him the wolferl) who is sort of my private craftsman lol. Not for free though but a good friendship prize. And I not want him to get a shock by my warzone. Due to moving I need to do things in my flat, which I will keep. Two reasons, first I have one room in my flat rented to my oldest and best friend called Gandalf or flattie (for flatmate), and second I pay the cheapest rent in whole munich so i would be silly to give it up. As I will come home for visits. But I feel bad to move without doing things before. So my Wolferl is coming tomorrow so that we can make a plan of what needs to be done (well i do know this but need to tell him), how much it will cost and when we or better him can do it.
So I shall be a busy bee now, and well later while i am working play a few coolers ;)
