Glitches

June 2nd, 2008 by hanlie

Just a quick word to let you know that our ADSL (and phone!) line is down and I’m unable to blog right now.  Hopefully it will get fixed before we leave for the States on Saturday!  Otherwise I’ll see if I can get to an internet cafe…  My week looks as if it’s going to be hectic though.

One of my former colleagues passed away yesterday (asthma attack) so I will be going to the funeral too.  We’re all very shocked and sad.  Her death so upset her daughter (of course) that she went into labor about a month prematurely.  I think it must be terrible to have your child’s birthday on the same day as your mother’s death.

Have a great week everybody!  Only five more sleeps until we go to America!  I’m not one of those jaded travelers - this is all very exciting for me!

    That’s so sad about your friend……

    You must be so excited about your trip! You’ll be on the opposite side of the country from me but still much closer than you are now!

    btw….did my postcard ever arrive?

    Oh my goodness! That’s so sad. Just incredibly tragic.

    If we don’t get a chance to “talk,” I can’t wait to hear how you like the States.
