2007: Reflecting Back

JAN 07 The beginning of the year, when you are still exhausted from home/ holiday and bored. This January was no different; Jan 07 came and left with only plans (New Year’s resolutions) for the rest of the year. FEB 07 The loooooove month (and birthdays for others). This month was frustrating for me- no lover to share the month with. Work- wise it was a month of preparations for the one to follow. MAR 07 March 07 was a busy month; all financial statements had to be closed. The end of a financial year in the public sector and the beginning of another. All books had to balance, auditors left and right. At the same time- it was a celebration month for other (close to me). It was a graduation ceremony in Cape Town, I was honored to be there and to be part of their lives at that time. APR 07 This month is like the new beginning of everything in the corporate world in the public sector. This is the new financial year beginning.

The Good & The Bad

When we speak in-terms of the good and the bad; how sure are we, that what is good for me isn’t bad for you? And what is bad for me isn’t good for you? I say: there is no bad or good, because things are done by action being taken. When a person decides to go and break the law, whether its murder, theft or politics- that person took a decision to risk all and consciously or unconsciously pre-planned the whole crime. Now…the problem is that the perpetrator does not plan to have difficult victims nor panicky ones. Thus when things don’t turn out how we planned… We say things went Bad.

Shop till you drop

With Christmas around the corner Anniversaries and Birthdays approaching just after Talk about the spirit of Christmas (which to me is all about spending and being left penny less) But let’s admit it- we like spending for Christmas- we get that generosity feeling To be honest- I LOVE shopping regardless of the occasion. What do you have planned for Christmas day? I am thinking dinner and wine!?? With some folks… Hmmm, I wonder who the guests will be

The end

The magical results of having patience December, the closing month of the year…the end is near (hmmm, that sounds like some fiction movie). Good and bad have occurred…I am not complaining but feel more groomed and prepared for 2008. Now, here comes my favorite part of this month…lol… CHRISTMAS GIFTS YES!!! I am a sucker when it comes to Christmas presents…I love receiving them than giving of course. Well, lately I also enjoy giving as much as receiving them. Joy to the world…if you don’t celebrate it then…happy season. The crowds around the malls give me a headache still- I never get use to the idea of being surrounded by too many people. The weather is swaying touching all corners- but who’s complaining… The wonderful news (personal) is that I am gonna make heads turn this summer!!! LOL Later
