To God be the glory...Miss Havisham and I


Heeellllooo ha!

Ahem! My very first proper post! So I have led you to believe that I’m in search of my big story right? Good… what I didn’t tell you is, I’m also going to give you a free-hand in deciding which of my posts (is that what they are called?) is the real deal, the big one, ya know…the shiznit…feel me? (Ou non?) Well, if you know me, you can probably tell, I’m a bit excited. Oh yes, I am!

I’m excited because I have just concluded my very first assignment at my new (ish) job and discovered I’m not that bad at it, if I say so myself. I take exactly 50% credit for the job. Oh yes! Okay, so what if I played more of an apprentice role than a lead role? We (and by we, I mean myself, feeling very much like Pip, and Miss Havisham who is sat next to me (and God bless her cos' I luh' her) did it in the end, didn't we? So this assignment took all of 2 month's planning, reading and sorting through a truck load of documents, some serious grit from myself especially when Miss Havisham swung around in her chair (I'm not playin guys, she came verrry close to taking my right eye out! and I dont play with my right eye, cos it's my beautiful eye), sheerly determined to overcome the task. So, at this point, I am pondering if I should tell you more about Miss Havisham. I mean, can I really tell you that she lives with her two cats (...who dont cope very well with the heat in summer...) without being a gossip? 'Think tock'...'think tock'...'think tock' errr...I don't think so. Okay, I'll tell you the good bits:

I really like this woman, no really!. I must admit I haven't met any woman with such a dynamic blend of professionalism, determination, intellect, charm and sarcasm, of late. She is also one those very resolved women, which is something I endlessly admire, perhaps because I am not of that...how do you say it?...disposition, if you like. See I'm a more, trial-and-error-make-up-your-mind-as-you-go-along kinda girl and I have to say if not for the Father up there, who knows where I could have been at this time? Guantamo bay?, in some carribbean island with Joe trying to get a groove (nevermind trying to get my groove back), studying medicine?...Ouuuhh... I shudder at the thought. But then again, if you are reading this, you are probably the a trial-and-error-blah-di-blah kinda person too, cos you are probably a friend and they do say birds of a (the same) feather...

Anywho, I digressed. What I really had to say was, I had a brilliant day at work, and I feel like I have achieved something and I'm learning lots and lots and as always, all credit goes back to God-my Father. For He knows the plans He has for me," as He declares, "plans to prosper me and not to harm me, plans to give me a hope and a future. Jer. 29:11 Think abourrit.
