1. New Job: yes can you believe it!!!! woo hoo!!! I am leaving the confines of my boring job as a lame ass runaround for other people to become a fully fledged study coordinator reporting to the director... working with her...which although it is striking the living-holy-crap-what am I doing fear bone in my body, I think it will be very good for me to have the change, and more responsibility within my career...I have to move forward and if this is going to help me realsie that goal, then I have to do it...hey? bring it on
2. Garden: ok... gardening is the first and foremost most pleasurable activity that I can ever do... It makes me extremely happy and when I am in the gsarden there is no other place on this earth I would rather be, that getting dirty, designing gardens and watching as they come to life before my eyes..it is spectacular... and awesome...to know you gave birth to that...and that it is thriving is awesome... I have sidetracked though...the lavender new garden has failed to materialise as of yet.... I have been sidetracked by two other burning projects that took my attention away from it....these are
- the rock garden: I redid a spot in the front garden: it was a weed patch with a statue in it... I moved the statue and transformed the space into a rock garden with some heat loving plants i.e. gazania, aloe, vygies... with a still water pond.. I recently got waterblommitjies (forgive spelling) and water poppies to out in the pond... indig and beautiful! loving the garden and loving ALOES!!!! they are the way to go...must post pics :)
- Now I am currently doing the garden that runs up the driveway... it about 25 metres long and a metre wide... I have cleared the area (it was hard... i have cuts, bruises, aching muscles and dirt ingrained into spots of my body that it is not polite to speak about...but it is done)..... planted two aloes in the patch, getting rock this weekend to do the hard landscaping and them...have to buy plants!!! (awesome ..cannot wait!)
...3. My sisters baby is arriving soon!!! yay! gonna be an uncle...looking forward to it a lot... cant wait to be uncle Hilton... going to spoil her rotten and then send her back to mom and dad.. love kids! and cannot wait to have my own oneday...being a dad must be the best.
anyways, promise to be more diligent in my ramblings..... keep cool people.
