Four Eyes: That's Me

one good thing about being married is that your spouse can tell when your eyesight begins to fail. such was the case with me. last week, my husband took me to the optomestrist and guess what... turns out that i'm far-sighted. this means i can see far but not so well when things are up close. i guess it kinda explains why i was feeling dyslexic for a while...

Don't I just look intelligent :)

my spectacles arrived sometime this week and we went to fetch them. i thought i'd look like a nerd in them, but it's not so bad hey. they look stylish... and guess what? my husband picked the frame. i put the on the minute we left the optometrist's office. i feel like such a giant because everything is up close and yet i feel like i'm so high up. it's a strange feeling and walking is even stranger. i feel like a baby... i feel like i walk like a duck...

anyway, i wanted to show you the new me... i'm at home right now and this is the picture i took with the webcam.... so you must excuse the quality...

It's My Party and I'll Cry if I Want To

I think I've had about 600 hairstyles in the last 3 years.

Well... I think that speaks for itself

The event organising kinda landed on my lap. I think I've learned a few nifty tricks as well :)

We all need to belong to a good union that goes on strike every now and then! Otherwise, why do we work...

My husband took that picure the last time in was in CT... We were in Camps Bay.

YUP! That H O T T I E  belongs to me :)

I had to blur the street name to protect my friend... But if you are in town and know where to find us, pop in! The more the merrier...

One nice thing about being at SAIAB is all the free Xhosa lesson I had. New word of the month is: ntiga... my husband says it means to soar... like the birds... high up in the sky :)

I'm leaving town... It's starting to settle in. My friends at work have organised a little party to send me off. The pictures above are from the slide show they emailed. It's so cute :) I will miss them much. I'll put some pictures up on the blog some time later when I settle in at my new home.

I'm hungry and I'm off to lunch now... I still have soooo many things to do before I leave this joint....

Peace out!
