oh 2008, there you are!
i keep thinking it's like the 2nd or 3rd of January - but then lo and behold I realize I took that whole week off and it's already the 7th! Well slap my ass and call me Betsy!
The last 3 weeks or so have been eventful. But the main thing I'm feeling is that I've had a long enough break to actually feel "detached" enough from the things that pissed me off at the end of 2007, to move on fresh.
Unfortunately, one of my new year's resolutions is to take work more seriously, which may directly affect my blogging capacity... like now, when I've given myself exactly 10 minutes for this post. However, it's for the best. And I'm usually pretty good at NY's Resoluties. The other resolution is to work on my posture.
2008: The Year of Love - note to self to love more.
There's so many episodes of the holidays to record in writing for posterity, but the clock is ticking, so I'll just make a note of the highlights, and fill in the space later. Well, there was the one about:
- The &$%£* Dutch visitors who made me want to pull my hair out
- The xmas dinner that I made which took me 3 hours of SOLID COOKING (but tasted great!)
- Sech nearly killing Billy in some sort of freakish alpha-dog battle on Xmas day beneath my dinner table!?!?!??!
- The huge trip up to the north of the country, and Zimbabwe, and Savuti, and back
- The one where Alan and I take the Mr. to the hospital after he began to show symptoms of Malaria (but tests come back negative)
- The unusually non-Botswana-summer bizarre weather up in the north that consisted of 6 days of rain and temperatures of 18 degrees C... totally NOT ideal for camping... well, unless you're in the all-weather roof tent which of course the GUESTS got, leaving me and the Mr. on the ground in the rain.
-oh yeah, and the part where the Mr. gives me SECH for (one of several, actually) my xmas present!!! :-o
(we are now a 4-dog family WTF!!!???) I'm happy, yet curious as to why he (Sech) then picked that precise day to half-eat my terrier??? Bloody ingrate.
There's my 10 gone - maybe this will inspire me to write at home and post at work? Hmmmm! Oh the possibilities of the new year!
Lots of photos to come.
