well now its November!

unbelievable!

i promised to post again ... and i am, although it is not exactly "soon" after my last one! wow, so much has been happening too.

my boss has been overseas for 5 weeks, and got back 3 weeks ago. while she was away i was sole charge, and also managing a brand new client who i did 50 hours for that first month and is now on a 30 hour per month retainer. we could really do with another team member, altho now the boss is back on deck, hopefully she will tackle part of the workload. we seem to be experiencing that last minute frenzy of clients wanting work sorted before everything slows right down in December and January.

in other news ... my dad has moved back to my city to live. currently he is renting a room in a fairly dodgy flat, with half his wordly possessions in there with him, and the rest in a storage unit. he moved from a three bedroom house into one largish room, so it has been a challenge!

the good news is that he has been offered a council unit, and i think he will take it ... so at least he will have his own space and a little more room to move than he currently does. and with luck, he will be able to get rid of some of the excess stuff and make a little cash from it.

what else, well my younger brother went to the states for 3 weeks with his girlfriend and they got married in Vegas - much to everyone' s surprise :)

that was cool, so i have a new sister in law ... and we get on well :)

my oldest son will be finishing school soon, and has already picked up his first part time programming job with a company called Telogis.

the women's circle has been going well, working through the goddess book, and we will probably take a bit of a break for December and January ... we had a great weekend away together focusing on Lilith, and a night time ritual up in a cave on the hills which was very cool. On wednesday night this week, which was Beltane here, we did another ritual on the beach and then made a shell encrusted mirror so we could look at our goddess selves. nice.

and since the return of my boss, i have started an hour later at work every day, and gone to the gym before work. have also started eating much healthier, lots of raw and salads and juices - all good!

and right now i am feeling hungry so a smoothie might be in the offing!

see you again soon .... and thanks for your comments darlings!
