Where did 2007 go?

I cannot believe it is already November and that in less than two months, we will be entering a spanking, brand new year. This year has whizzed past ever so fleetingly; it has been a busy-buzzing year with visitors, family and friends, with some positive changes, as well as interesting travels for me thusfar. A lot of happenings on the work front too.

This was how the past 10+ months have looked like very briefly:

January
Egypt holiday.
Restructuring and change in role.

February
Started blogging. Woohoo.

March
Played host to buddy from Malaysia who came a-visiting.
Began self-development course in basic SAS skills.

April
Mumsy spent 2.5 weeks with us.
We holidayed in Venice.
Additional responsibilities for new portfolio as colleague left for greener pastures.

May-June
The in-laws were here for 3 weeks.

June
Home bound for two long lovely jovely weeks.

July
Being catsitters for 3 weeks.

August
Home bound again, but only for a week.

October
Dadster’s visit.
Weekend get-away in land of chocklit and Belgian waffles.
Another one bites the dust and handing over of tasks is on-going.

November
Next week, brother in law will be around for four days.
Restructuring and change in role yet again.

Twice in a year, is that even possible? Apparently so in Shittybank. When oh when will senior management know what they really want and decide once and for all the right direction to head and save us all the grief?

I foresee November to be a very busy and *challenging* month for me in terms of work so time will fly too. Before I know it, I’ll be spending all my hard-earned money, first on the pre Christmas sale and the Boxing Day sale thereafter, much to IK's dismay (!). Then I slog away again until the next holiday, or the next restructure perhaps?

Ah, the vicious cycle of (my) life.
