Day 27 - Rent-A-Dad

• I picked up four children today from nursery: Florian, the two neighbour's daughters and a friend of Florian. So today I was really the nursery hero, walking home with 5 children including Matthias! Another mom asked me if I'm a rent-a-dad! Do I look like I enjoy having children around THAT much :)?
• The mother who asked me about being a rent-a-dad has a daughter called Chiara in the same group as Florian. She was over at our place a while ago for Florian's birthday and apparently Chiara really enjoyed the party (I had to entertain all kids while the moms were chatting). Anyway in the nursery the kids can grind coffee beans to powder for their parents (it's hand operated, so the main reason is to keep them busy I guess). Today Chiara ground some coffee for ME!! I was really touched, seems like kids like me. I guess I should actually start a business as rent-a-dad ;)
• When you get bored during the day something that defnitely helps to improve your mood (at least mine): Turn up some music of your teenage years really loud and dance around with your kids. Today I was jumping around our living room with Matthias to "Tainted Love", "Sweet Dreams" and alike (yes I'm that old!). I got inspired to do that because a friend asked me to join him to the "Flieger" on saturday, which is a new wave music party in Vienna.
• Went out in the evening and met a friend where I got this for free(!) and afterwards to a pub with some colleagues. It's always nice to get some conversation with adults :)
• Lunch: Spaghetti, Dinner: Schnitzel
