OMG...It has been a while

I don't even know where to start with the mayhem that is my life. But it isn't a bad crazy really, just a crazy that leaves me with no time to do what I want to do and even less time to spend with the hubby these days. Seems that the higher up the corporate ladder he moves, the more of his time is required on the work front and while I would never in a million years resent him for the hours and hours he spends working, it is pretty lonely most of the time.

The past couple of months have been really hectic. Let me break it down for you:

1. Work has been so unbearable and as much as I love what I do, the pressure we are under because of the ecominc crisis that we are in, makes going to work feel more and more like a chore rather than a joy. And the fact that we cannot hire any new people due to saving money and all that, makes me wanna throw something most days. :-)
2. Riaan has financial year end and his LLB assignments due all in the same period and as much as I love and support him in everything he does, I am just missing spending quality time with him.
3. My health has taken a hard knock this winter. I don't think I have been this ill, this much in years. I was just not able to shake the horrid flu and after two months of doctors visits, loads of medication and my loving husbands care, I am now in a much better place.
4. We lost our dear aunty Connie in our department to cancer last month. I am still not over that yet. Everytime I look at her empty seat, the tears feels like they are on the way. I still keep looking up at 9am most days just hoping to see her stroll in and greet us in the wonderful and amazing way she always did.
5. My friend Dorcas (who also works in my department) was so ill for almost two months, that we really thought she was not going to make it. But thank be tp God Almighty that she is doing much better and back at work too.
5. Riaan and I finally decided to bite to bullet and officially put our plans for expanding our family into action. Scary, scary but exciting at the same time. (Good news... Good news)
6. My best friend Nicky has been going through a rough time lately and she honestly takes my breath away with her courage and her strength and her will to not give in... She makes me wanna better that way..

I am hoping to be updating my blog on a more regular basis. No promises though... I am taking it a day at a time.

Hugzzzz and kisses ya'll..
