Protected: Going for October 2006

So here’s what’s new. If you normally get e-mails from me, and you haven’t in the past while, I’m really really sorry. Things at work have really taken over my time – even lunch times. Due to our office move I have to leave home earlier (to miss traffic), and I come home quite late. We moved into our new offices a month ago already (I can’t believe it!), and I suppose I have settled in. I already have a new routine: I leave home now @ 6:45am – Its not as good as 7:30am used to be, but at least its not winter anymore, so getting up is a bit easier. I’m suppose to have some photo’s of the office somewhere, so I’ll post them when I find them
Then, as you probably already know, I got my promotion!!! I’ve been appointed as QA Manager, which is something I have been working towards for the past couple of months. Though this hasn’t changed anything really, as I’ve been doing the tasks of a manager since March / April in any case. Its just good to get some recognition for it.
On October 5th we’re having our year end function – already, can you believe it?!?! I need to find a skirt somewhere – but with my fussiness its going to be hard I want a black silk knee length skirt – but somehow no one is stocking that at the moment, and I don’t really do the whole sewing scene…
At home things are a bit busier than normal – my sister & family are visiting from the US – they moved to Atlanta in Dec. 2005, and came for a 6 week holiday on the 1st of September. This holiday is almost over now, but hey – we still have a bit of time left.
With me and Jaco things are awesome too – we went away last weekend (just the two of us) to Watervalboven. We stayed there in a cabin on a trout farm, or lodge – whatever… Though we don’t do trouting, we did go for a 15km hike to a waterfall, which was pretty awesome. The water was clear, like it always is, and also FREEZING cold. I wasn’t brave enough to dip in, but Jaco managed to spend a full 5 seconds in the water – 4 diving in, and 1 second, almost walking on the water to get out. I’ve never seen someone get so cold… The whole weekend was just so relaxing – we didn’t have electricity (at least we had running water), so we ended up braaiing & snacking on fruit and stuff. I also have some photo’s of this, but its on my flash stick @ work.

Addition: Here are the photo’s of our hike!

I hope you guys are all doing great!! Please continue e-mailing – I promise I read them all!!! Thanks for visiting my blog – I appreciate your support ((Sounding like a charity organization now))
Well, its time for bed now, so sleep tight!!!
