Eskado Bird. The Beginning..

Very excited to be working with this girl.
She's going to be a stellar success.
I know it.

Faye, Fiona, Susie, Alison..

Loving all your emails and FB messages. Great to hear from you all.
Miss you and please keep it up!

As the internet is so slow and the connection is pretty poor I'm only able to spend short spells online
and its frustrating!

Hey Miss DJ

I've been invited to DJ at the leaving party for Shaggy ( Mr Boombastic.. telephontastic..?! ) this week...


Wednesday night, at Runway, the coolest club in Dar.
The invite came from Black Ice PR. YIKES!!!!!!!!


Have no cans or CDs..however I got a plan!

Alison

So happy to have heard from my pal Alison. Miss her loads. She's the funniest woman I know and a terrific girlfriend - she must be - she's been a very close friend since we were 14/15 working in CF Nash Glasgow in the stationery department.


She cracks me up. Very lucky to have her as a pal. She's not on Facebook, so its email all the way. FB is not her thing.

Very wise words...Healing..

A friend sent this to me today and I like it a lot.. 



Stopping, calming, and resting are preconditions for healing. When animals in the forest are wounded they find a place to lie down and rest completely for many days . . . They just rest and get the healing they need.
--Thich Nhat Hanh

We hurt. We suffer. We wrong our loved ones and they do wrong by us. Reaching desperately for an answer will not help us. Pretending we're not hurt doesn't help either. When we are wounded, the wound needs rest in order to heal. So it is with our souls. If we poke at our hurt, pick at the sore, rub it in the dirt of others' opinions, we do not allow it time to heal.

If you've been hurt, accept that. Feel the hurt. Be aware of it. Let it heal. Maybe it would be better if you didn't talk to that person for a while. Maybe you need to let go of the relationship. Maybe you just need some quiet time. Whatever the answer is, find a safe place and allow yourself to heal.

If you're feeling pain, be aware of it. Feel the pain, and then quit picking at the wound. Lie low. Quit fighting. Relax. Give your wounds time and enough rest to heal.

Chesney Hawkes

He may be the one and only but even though we have 32 friends in common, I don't really want to be FB pals with him or Gary Davies ( altogether now.. "ooh Gary Davies on your radio.. )

I'm deleting FB connections at the moment. Ones where there is never any interaction, too much Farmville blah shenanigans and also relationships where the energy isn't as good as I'd like.

FB has been great as it means I can keep in touch with all my friends and also see what they're up to and how they are. Blessing on that front!
And as I'm so far away, you can really suss out what's important, relevant and true and what is not.

I'm also liking making new friends here in Tanzania and adding new peeps that I've met here in Africa.

Jerry, Susie, Fiona, Niki, Nicole,Guy, Lisa, Andrea, Frank, Suzanne, Heather..et al you know who you are.. please keep me up to speed with your news..
Miss you !
