Wow. Been in Qatar over a week, and decided it was time to resurrect my online blog! I'm teaching year 3 at Dukhan English School, and my students start on Sunday.
Settling into my new home is going well, and I have internet, tv, a land line phone and a printer now, so I'm feeling a bit more connected to the world!! :)
Hope to be posting on here a bit more regularly, and will probably do some changes, me thinks. :) Keep your eyes peeled!!

Back from Thailand...

So, I landed back on Australian soil yesterday (Sunday) at 1.15pm, and was just de-boarding the plane at 1.35pm due to delays caused by a sick fellow-passenger who had to be cleared by quarantine before the rest of us could de-board the plane. Good ole' Quarantine making sure none of us are carrying any infectious diseases! Then there was a massive lineup at Customs (which I'm told is entirely normal) and at baggage collection.

Then finally, about 2.30pm, I was able to locate my friend Keryn, in the massive group of people waiting for passengers arriving.. which was awesome! On the way home, we stopped to get a few groceries, some petrol and some lunch, and arrived at my place about 4pm. Relief!

More updates when my pics are finished uploading to my computer.. :) Good to sleep in my own bed!

New Year, new beginnings

So, the beginning of 2008 has arrived... made some new years resolutions, hopefully and prayerfully will make it through 2008 and be able to keep them. Been also thinking about the last few years of my life, and about how things have changed. How many of my friends are either having their 1st, 2nd or 3rd children, buying a house/unit/townhouse, enjoying married life, getting married, getting engaged, or finding someone special. And how none of that is happening in my life right now. Funny how life doesn't quite turn out how you planned, eh?!

Anyhow, time for more thoughts later, time for bed now. Bless anyone who reads this.
