The house of ill
We are not feeling well! Well, my son who normally is the ill one, has been found to be immune, for now. So my wife and I are aching and trying to rest. My wife is better than I am having come down with this on Thursday, and therefore giving this to me to be ill when at work yesterday. I guess it was to be expected as she had a very stressful day on Tuesday. After work, she had a very stressful journey to Southend for an interview where she ended up arriving an hour late. Fortunately, the people there were kind enough to wait for her, and even better, later we found out that she was successful.
Last weekend, we collected my mother on Monday. This was after a trip to Ikea, which I found out, has been made even more child friendly. A lot of the areas to show living spaces and ideas now have other passageways that the kids can walk through. And of course, happy kids, means happy parents, which for Ikea is excellent as this means that we end up spending more. Kids can be strange.
My Mum was invaluable as we needed her to look after the kids on Tuesday and Wednesday. And on Wednesday, after work, my son and I went for a walk with her. It was relaxing, and this is something that I guess as a family we could consider to do more often.
And as for today, well, my daughter and I are watching Once Upon A Time while we both are ill.
On the bright side, I have had another great and unexpected win in chess. I did not expect to have a chance in this game but the use of the bishop pair helped me. Unfortunately, this luck will not help in my other game against this opponent.
Since the last post, I have done okay in online chess tournaments however.
Top Of The Pops 19
Speed King #151 - Very fast players 3(2)->1 U1500
Kings Gambit Knockout Tournament
But while I have done better than expected in chess, I am uncertain that Arsenal are to do the same. I can not agree with the decision to send Jack Wilshere to Bournemouth, I felt, when we were offered Cesc Fàbregas that it it did not matter as we had Wilshere. And although I wanted N'Golo Kante to join us, when he went to Chelski, we still had Wilshere. And now we do not. In Arsène we trust, and we are going to have to trust him a lot this season.
