  • South African Preparation Diaries Part 2

    Well the big challenge is now upon me.  Yet another substantial absence from Xanga, and this time I have largely been genuinely absent, not just popping in and not commenting.  The pressure has really mounted and, as of this morning, I was faced with writing up a Masters assignment totalling 6500 words (including footnotes) by the end of Wednesday. Essentially over 2000 words a day.  If you're not a student that might not mean much, but if you have done any higher level of study you will be aware that this terminates almost every other activity if you want to finish the job.  Have done 1845 words so far today, and will make Tuesday the big day.  Need to get through in order to facilitate the SA move so it is rather important.

    Ebay is going fairly well, as I have hinted at in a post to Moritheil (is that spelt correctly? - probably not).  We haven't got loads of money in, but we do have some and it is getting rid of things.  We are hannahblessed if you wish to go and have a look, though there won't be anything more up there until the end of the week.

    Wish I had time to pop in and say hello to everyone.  I really ought, but do not have time as you can imagine.  Therefore, if none of you have bothered reading this or commenting that is totally understandable.

    Have a great evening, whatever you are doing and whoever you are.  If you have got this far, thanks for stopping by.

    Thanks for giving us an update, even as you must be so busy now with your Masters assignment!  Good luck with that.  I'm sure it will be such a relief at the end of Wednesday, after it's done.  You just have one day.

    Glad to hear the eBay sales are coming along, too.  It sounds like you really are making progress.

    It was very good to read hear this update from you!

    I MISS YOU!  But I haven't exactly been a very faithful friend when it comes to staying in touch either   I sure hope that doesn't mean that when you get here, you won't have coffee with me!
    I WILL send you an email sometime SOON, I promise!  And I really have missed you, and was thinking of you guys just the other day!  *sigh*  Time flies...but I'm not really having any fun - LOL!
    Praying that your thesus gets done, and super quick!  May God bless you with the right words to say!  (((HUGS)))

    I just about missed this.  Sorry.  I know you must be real busy or we would have heard from you.  It's very understandable.  You may be out of sight but not out of mind.  I was wondering where you were.


    Good to see you on to keep us posted.

    @decembriel - Thanks for always being so quick to comment.  Out of all the people on here, you are the one I can definitely rely on to comment - and you will definitely understand about assignments.  Thanks


    @meganbarnard - I'm sure we can do coffee sometime.  At the end of the day, I am the one who started going walkabout a while ago, and I have done it numerous times since so if there is ever a time you are doing the same to me, you are only copying.  Thanks for the comments.


    @FREAK_MA - Another one who so regularly comments, even when I write about complete rubbish you know nothing about.  Really do appreciate it.  Will stop by soon.
