New Work

So yesterday I applied for a new job on Upwork. My recruitment work has been really slow and I picked up a job that looked like it would work for me. I applied and had an interview from the manager. They wanted 30 hours a week, so I wrote to my current MD and told her of my predicament, asking her if things were expected to pick up. She promptly sent me 17 applicants to pre-screen.  I’m speaking to 5 of them tomorrow! Meantime, I hope to work a few hours a day for the new company…this will be calling remote lodges and bnbs.

#527 of my thousand thanks is that it is good to be busy again!

My gym workout consisted of 10 km cycle in 22 min 46 sec; 2.5 km run in 17 min 36 sec and I swam 16 lengths of crawl. I swam 4 without stopping and then rested every 2 until the end. I think Thursday will be the day I do the components of the mini triathlon. I actually really enjoy the swimming. I just have to get better at it!

Today a gravelly sounding put-put of a vehicle arrived outside our house…

My new cell phone arrived. It is pretty much a ‘no name brand’ (Xiaomi Redmi 4X) but it will serve my purpose…

Another warm sunny day in Cape Town with no sign of rain and very little wind. The water restrictions continue. The dam levels are 30.3%, with the last 10% unusable. The city has 20% water left. Let’s pray that the rains come early and start filling the dams up.

Proverbs 16:4

The Lord has made everything for His own purposes, even the wicked for a day of disaster.

Our trust is in the Lord.

These are the days.

Keep the smile going.

God bless you.

In His Grip,

Helga xx 🙂
