I am very busy this week! On Monday, I went shopping with my son to buy his new basketball equipment. Yesterday, I had to work very late to finish an important project. This morning, I waited for the electrician because our outside lamp was broken. This evening, I'm going to the cinema with my girlfriend. Tomorrow, my aunt is coming to visit me, so I must tidy up my apartment. On Friday, I'm having a meeting with a new client and this weekend, I'm going to the countryside with some friends!

I'll be right with you...
