Majtényi Erik: Októberi Szél

Hej hogy reccsen, hej hogy roppan a sok száraz ág,
hűvös őszbe, nyirkos őszbe fordul a világ.
Ha ilyenkor duhaj kedvvel nekilendülök,
és a fázó bokrok között táncra perdülök,
hogy bokázik a sok sárga zörgő falevél.
Én vagyok az, én vagyok az októberi szél.

Notes

I’m about to write for weeks. I wanted to create more new notes since my last post because there was a chain of events to mention and no time to get into shape. For example a holy mass was dedicated to grandparents, an unexpected programme change has occured, we had an extra long weekend and lived through the worst day of 2008. Summing up, all in one:
Holy Mass for Grandparents
Relatives were invited from Epöl and Esztergom to our church on a Sunday morning. The mass was offer up to the grandparents which was my mother’s brother’s idea and doings. After the mass we went to the cemetery together then we were seen with a pretty breakfast at Laci’s place.
October 21, 2008 – The Worst Day Of the Year
It gives me the shiver to think of that telephone call. The happenings horrify me and there is no day passing away without thinking of that tragedy. My best friend in primary school and her family had a car accident, it was a pile-up. Three tractor trucks, a dump truck, a truck trailer and a car crashed. Guess who was sitting in the car, guess who had no chance whatever. The father was badly wounded, the mother was desperately wounded, the 4-year-old-boy was fatally injured, the 2-year-old-boy is o.k. (spiritually injured). The mother is in coma, her brain and brainpan injury is the most serious. The burial of her son will be tomorrow, I’ll be there.
Getting home I grabbed the dust-bin to pull in (the garbage truck emptied it that day). I always look into it and I saw a black belt pouch at the bottom that time. I knew straightaway that robbery happened (somebody robbed from someone the bag and after getting the money he threw into our dust-bin) and felt that bad things were not over for that day (it never rains but it pours).
I wasn’t failed. Someone wanted to break into my parents’ house in the night (fifth time). Pure accident, my father went to the bathroom when heard the burrs, something to fall with a thump, then fiddling the door-lock. He turned the lights on, gave him a scare and the burglar broke into a run.
Programme Change
We had a 4-day-weekend (plus an extra hour because of winter time) and wanted to leave (of course with Dominik). Aquapark, visiting relatives, whatnot. Previous days: preparing, packing. The night before travelling: Dominik got ill, fever heat, stopped-up nose.

Future Plans in a Nutshell

I'm brooding over the future. There are facts that are given and alternatives to choose. I need to weight up the pros & cons, sum up the opportunities and put them in cronological order.

Fact: The company where I worked was liquidated. If I wanted to go back, I couldn't. Fortunately, I didn't have the intention of returning, although I adored that place, my job and my colleges more than I can say. I need changing. "Changing is the only steady thing" - said my tutor at the college. How true.

• Krisz & me are dreaming about an own business for years (the car wash). We have formed the project in our mind there and back many times but the execution is still keeping us waiting for lack of capital. Very initial steps were made earlier.
• 3L - Life Long Learning is very important and I decided the continuation of my studies even during college years. Learning with a baby might be difficult but saves expenses. I'm interested in Masters of Business Administration (MBA) specialized in Management. In case it is with not the same conditions as earlier, I'm afraid we couldn't husband our resources. (Most people's further studies are financed by their companies because the tuition fees are extremely high, especially as for the second degree.) I need to go round this question some more.
• We'd like to have a second baby by the time Dominik will turn 3, so I don't think to make a career as a womanager in the next few years... :-) I want to spend the most time possible with my little son.

DREAM-SOLUTION would be:

1. to sit in the school-desk a.s.a.p. (once in 2 weeks) while working on the car wash
2. to earn the second degree by the time the second baby comes
3. to establish the car wash and when things are going well to employ workers
4. to look for a part-time job after the age of 3 of the younger baby - not for living but as a hobby

TILL THEN AND ALWAYS my mission is: to make my husband and son happy, satisfied, bellyful, spotless; to provide a hygienic, tidied, warm home; to organize the social life; to take care of them

One More Round Number This Year

Füzesgyarmat & Köröstarcsa

My godmother's birthday was what we celebrated last weekend. We spent a few days in the country. While the male members were soaking themselves in the local spa, we were making long walks in the springlike sunshine and experinced the joys of the countryside. We visited long-seen relatives in an other little country village where Dominik had a playmate of the same age.
