Cost of medical care
This Saturday just past, we were meant to catch up with my father and his defacto, however it had to be postponed because my father had an infected eye with a gash on his cornea. So instead of a nice picnic lunch on the bay I took my seven year old to the shops to buy track pants and socks for school, nowhere near as much fun but a necessary activity. In the car on the way to the shops Claire asked “is grandpa alright?”, I told her that he had been to a specialist and he was going to be fine. The word ’specialist’ must have rung alarm bells in her head because she gasped and said “How much did it cost?”. Poor thing, only seven and already concerned with the cost of medical care!

Tsk! Tsk! I think Mummy’s negativity and cost of living lectures are rubbing off on the poor little thing! I think Super Optimistic Luke needs to come to the rescue here! Quick, Super Optimistic Luke before it is too late, save the little one’s while you still can. Before Mummy gets her evil negative claws into them and takes them over to the dark side!
Yes Claire has inherited the ‘pessimism’ genes from her mother! However, Claire is convinced we are getting a house so there’s some small mercies for you. I think Claire will get us that house with her faith!
Phew! Thank goodness for small mercies! hehehe!
