“World economy is in crisis because also economic teaching is in crisis!” Too often, common sense and good arguments got waved away because of some economic phrase. Not because I love it that much, but because I realized that it influences ALL our decision making much more, then I liked. Much later in my carrier I studied economics. Surely, it wasn’t my first wish! Became a veterinarian, first. Hope, it will make you curious enough to also dig into the book, the videos at several channels and lots of other information, already available. This is some kind of lifeline (for me) through whole the concept. Mostly added some questions and remarks to structure all the information in my mind and to integrate it in the thing I’m already knew, my thoughts and opinions downsizing an information-intensive book to some pages. While reading the book, digging into more sources, I made notes from the points, which stroke me, the most.

During her wild ride to stardom, Molly gets her first kisses from both a boy and a girl, gets drunk for the first time (but not the last), and loses her virginity and her sense of self, too. Molly Montgomery and her friends Tara and Jane live largely unnoticed until they form a fledgling girl band that will "be part of the new girl revolution." Fragile-yet-feisty Molly writes songs about Hello Kitty and boy crushes because that's the stuff of her world-a childhood closely guarded by her "crunchy granola," rule-oriented parents she dramatically deems "power-crazed fascists."

There was the Mum of my childhood, the Mum of adulthood and the Mum that became sick and died.Ĭancer treatment is brutal and ravages the body it is trying to save. I looked through so many photos of Mum for this post but was at a loss to know how to sum up the person she was to me in a handful of snaps (I guess you can piece together some of that from previous remembering Mum posts). Just 5 years later, a few days before Euan’s 1st birthday, Mum was diagnosed with breast cancer. I love that photo of Mum with Dad, taken on Mum’s 60th birthday in 2008. We invited Dad to come away with us but he already had a date with Elkie Brooks at Cheltenham Town Hall! That’s not to say just a year on it’s less important just that the celebration of one of her beloved grandchildren, on the rare occasion of his birthday falling on the weekend, took priority. This time last year, as we marked the first birthday without her it was so important to be together. We went away for Euan’s 8th birthday so didn’t get to see my Dad. It would have been my Mum’s 72nd birthday last Sunday. |
