Me me me (and other selfish thinking)
I have no excuse for being slack and not updating my blog for weeks on end. I had a fantastic excuse for last week, which involved falling down stairs, trips to the doctor and almost endless DVD watching as I struggled to move, but not any excuse for the nothingness of the previous 2 weeks. I’m bad (I need a chorus here . . . “she’s bad she’s bad”). But excuses are necessary in any eventuality (I’ve always wanted to say that) so here’s mine: undead pirate monkeys stole my keyboard.
Moving on . . .
Time passes too quickly and I have been awful at keeping up with anyone. In some ways it’s that I am quite busy, and in other ways it’s that I’m just a little scared that if spend lots of time with the people I love spending time with here (and that’s all of you and others), that I’ll miss you more than I can bear when I leave and I don’t like missing people so I thought I’d solve the whole problem by being awfully busy and not having time to do lots of hanging out stuff with people. Stupidest thought sequence I’ve ever had!
It’s 42 days until I leave NZ for good, and the impending doom feeling has changed my mind about being busy and therefore avoiding missing people. So I have 42 days to spend time with as many friends as possible for as long as possible. If you live in Wellington, let’s do something, name a time and a place. If you live in Palmy, I’ll be coming through on my way to the Hawke’s Bay on 19/20 August and I’d love to drop by and see you. If you live anywhere else, call me and we’ll see what we can sort out.
And in final news about me me me (very selfish talking here), I’m currently about $11000 over budget for the coming year and although this doesn’t take into account my last few payments and selling everything (well almost) I own, it’s still a very scary amount. If you’re a praying sort of person, could you pray that I’ll be able to trust God to handle the money situation for me?
