What the Hell am I thinking??!

What the hell am I thinking this week? Attempting to Live Below the Line http://www.livebelowtheline.org.nz/ while a full week of teaching.  Teaching tweens & starving at the same time does not a sane woman make! Actually nor does staying up late.  2 days of headaches & it's not because I'm cold turkeying off the tea, coz I'm not.  I couldn't go that far.  Discovered that making 'roti'.. actually, it's just flour, oil & boiling water then dry fried.. is really easy & quite delicious.  Jakita loves roti, so she's not complaining about that, though she wasn't looking fwd to a week of Living Below the Line. She said she wanted to eat somewhere else for the week - "Yep, you & over a billion other people in the world my darling".  Well, at the very least we'll have $30 or so to donate to the fundraising & will have empathised ever so pathetically with those struggling to feed themselves & their families.  Perhaps I may also continue with some cooking in the kitchen.. don't hold ya breath. Going to bed now, very late,. with only silverbeet & potato soup in my puku that was consumed several hours ago.  Good chance I'll have gastro heartburny thingey sometime through out the night.  But, I'm feeling very grateful & very rich, very very rich indeed!
