When I say I'm busy at work & cannot join for an outing in the evening (like shopping etc), my wife at times accepts and leaves. But sometimes she chooses to turns on the terror. I've been thinking what might've been the logic behind.
Some critical findings:
When I'm at work, my wife keeps sending some fwd messages in Whatsapp.
Me being innocent, pick them up all, watch, and at times respond.
And when I'm really busy, I wouldn't touch my phone.
I just realize my wife's been using these messages like an availability sensing protocol.
My wife compares the time difference between Message Delivered And Message Viewed
If these two consistently draw a close graph during my work hours, then she understands I'm all free and watching messages over phone RIGHT ON TIME, Instantly once they are delivered.
If I'm really busy, these curves wouldn't match their patterns so she concludes it as "Okay he's real busy"
Poor lady spelt this out once in anger, "You got all time to watch junk messages but cant come back home on time".
Now I know when to open a message and show it as "read/viewed".

Now don't make the mistake to ignore all those little messages for hours. Sometimes you must look at one quickly enough so that she never gets the impression that you know what they are about.
Am I glad that I never have to play such games and can come home any time I want to.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

Amen to that.

No, they can't. They never had a clue what I was thinking, otherwise they would not have kept on behaving the way they did.

O, pazienza, pazienza che tanto sostieni! (Dante)
Patience! Oh patience that can bear so much!
I battled for more than two days in a Prism application to get events in a Blend-type behavior to work. The behavior was supposed to set the headings for a DataGrid when the ItemsSource for the DataGrid was set to a specific DataTable. The DataGrid was set to autogenerate columns. I got some really weird effects, until I finally figured out I had to introduce a 100 millisecond delay after the View that held the DataGrid loaded, before I loaded the DataTable. Suddenly all weirdness was gone! All that was needed was patience for a 100 ms delay after the View loaded!
I introduced the delay using the DispatcherTimer. A lesson learnt costing me two days of my life!

so there must be a delay after the view load? 
|
|
|
|
|
Keep in mind that the View's loaded event fires before it is rendered and becomes visible. There are still UI element activity after the event fired. If the View is a window, I will prefer to use the ContentRendered event, but in Prism the View is usually a UserControl, that does not have a ContentRendered event.

So, following on from this and this , I am just back from a reccy visit to Cyprus.
I must say it was a success.......after visiting 3 schools and 3 villas, and the kids completing entry assessments at the first school we visited, we have accepted school places and signed a lease on a villa.
The next 3 months in Qatar are all about getting everything ready to pack up and ship out, looks like the mrs+kids will go back to the UK at the end of june and the shipment will head of to Cyprus, I will then head to Cyprus to meet it at the end of July, and then the w+kids will head over at the end of summer in time to start the new school year.
My head is mince.....
However, still managed to publish my next blog: Cyprus is Calling for those who want to follow along
I still have the Qatar is Calling blog on the go, and as I will continue to work in Qatar, I'll probably keep it going, but updates will be less frequent once we move.

I love Cyprus - we get out there as often as we can.
