I have kind of struggled getting back into blogging mode since Linda came/left. Suddenly work is back and in full speed and life just seems to wizz past. A week ago exactly Linda ran off back to Sweden and for the first time since February I am the only person under 50 staying here. Strange.
On Friday we had another performance of the SOTC, but this time without intruments which was very interesting and meant we choirleaders had to do much more. Anyway, we survived and it is over now. Celebrated with pizza at Sam's.
I feel like I should tell lots about when Linda was here, but I can't remember what I've already told you. We did a lot anyway. Antelope Park, Chipengali, bendover, craft shops, work, Vic Falls, Jeanette's farm, Heather's farm, tummy bugs, car breakdown, a whole heap of chatting, Wordfeuding, walks, shopping, suntanning, cooking, dinners and lots more. I couldn't believe how bad my Swedish was when she came, but by the time she left it was kind of okay. It was a bit of a stress having to try and think in Swedish, and talk! Much easier with English I felt. So now I am back to that. Comfortable. I just kept on forgetting the Swedish words, or making them English. For Swedes: Once Linda and I were driving in the dark and I said " Åh, kolla väglamporna är på!" And she replied "Japp, och gatlyktorna också..." Felt a bit stupid. Anyhow.
Today I am to meet a girl called Chelsea, who is a niece of someone who gran knows (if I've understood correctly), at Hillside Dams, so I better get going. I'll try to come back here a bit more often than I have lately. There have been coming up a few photos on my tumblr if you've missed that in my blogging absence. nellieinafrica.tumblr.com
Toodles!
