Right Now (Aug 2013)

04/08/2013 by heatherawsumb

Is my life completely consumed by scrapbooking right now? You’d kind of think that from the blog posts recently. Being on the GIS Creative Team has really pushed me to be creating continually, and I like it. I’m trying to find a balance, though, between sharing what I create and sharing “the rest of my life.” The rest of my life just doesn’t seem all that interesting these days. It’s (still) winter here in Lesotho so the social life has slowed down more so than in the summer and there isn’t much to share. I’m going to take a cue from Ali Edwards’ “Hello Story” class and do some fill-in-the-blank. Right now I am …

Going: Crazy at work right now as always. Last week was particularly rough (and that was AFTER I posted to FB about how crazy work was. I had no idea what was in store.)

Participating: In supervisory visits for the PMTCT technical working group (a group of implementing partners from NGOs + staff of the Ministry of Health). I’ll probably only be able to go for a day (or two) because of other work commitments, but I’m excited to see how things are going in the clinics with the new guidelines. It’s field visits and the more technical program work that I miss/wish I had more time for as CD.

Making: Travel plans like crazy. Taste of Joburg at the end of September. Potentially to the beach for Independence Day in October. Cape Town for a work meeting. Home to see family & friends over Thanksgiving. Madagascar for Christmas. #blessed

Dreaming: Of our next (and likely final) musical for MPC … The ideas are being bandied about. There are disputes about what’s funny and if everyone needs to die at the end for a show to make it on the short-list (all 3 shows to date have involved significant death, but in a funny/campy way.) You’ll hear plenty about that once it comes up.

Loving: My nephew – Calvin Spencer.  I had no idea how in love with him I would be. Even from across the world.

Feeling: Like ALL MY FRIENDS ARE LEAVING ME – aka the usual/annual cycle in-and-out of expats. The longer I stay, the more personal each outward cycle of people feels.

Considering: A change to my reading goal by making it a target number of pages read instead of the number of books. I’ve been thinking about how to calculate an aggressive, yet achievable, goal in number of pages. Will write more when/if this happens, but in short I think I should get more credit for reading/investing in long books.
