[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 429141, member: 77"] Well, it wasn't exactly a promise, but I did agree to it when he said that when he returns he wants to come and live at home. But I'm hoping that now he's tasted freedom, he won't want to come back home. I suppose it depends when he finds a job. As for his ticket: When you go to Australia on a work visa, they don't take any chances and he had to buy a return ticket, so there's no problem there! I must admit that I don't want to fork out any more money on any of my children, I've just had it with helping them out financially. I'm almost 66, and I'm still working like a slave. I must admit that I enjoy my work, since I am self-employed and I do editing and proofreading, and when my clients come back to me again and again it really flatters my ego. But nevertheless, staying up night after night until 2 or 3 in the morning working is no longer the pleasure it used to be. I laugh at myself when I say this, but sometimes I dream of sitting listening to the radio while I embroider or knit, and I just don't have time for those things. Oh well, at least I do Sudokus every day -- to keep my brain going!! Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
