A little bit of patience is paying off in the employment department. Though I'm still in my same role as Personal Assistant to someone who does cool things (case in point, she's currently in Tanzania and I'm planning her trip to Nigeria in December), I've managed (with a leg up from a number of folk) to be allowed to participate in some work for the Disaster Risk Reduction team. So this week I'm furiously scrabbling away at producing a synthesis on the work that's been done on DRR indicators. It's not a difficult task, but I'm a bit stressed about it if only because if it's something they find useful, I might get a few more interesting bits of work.
Onto a much more tasty topic: Frü, closely related to Gü. Lemon cheesecakes... flirty little puds... Sinéad and I just got back from Tescos where we couldn't decide if we wanted plum and pear crumble or apple ginger crumble or zesty lemon cheesecakes... so we got all of them...
This week brings many Americans (none of whom can have my Frü). Michelle is here from Canada via Dubai and Ruth and Josh are honeymooning in Kent (in Britain?! in November?!). And all are attending what will be the Halloween Bash of the year- hurrah!
That's the long and short of it for the moment... trees are changing, the weather's frigid, I have crumble in my belly, and the laundry's done - life's not too bad.
