A little bit of everything

So there will be a massive reshuffling in my department. Business is not good nowadays. Its all about the price. Ours are too high. The world is getting smaller and smaller, people are moving closer to the source. Middle people like us, are slowly being eliminated.

When u deal with general commodities, there is no focus. Everything goes. Its not a good thing. There is no core products to fall back on. Does not help when the risk departments demands that transactions have to be risk free (??). Is there even such a thing. OK, we mitigate all the risk, as best we could, but still, there is a small grey area where we can never know what happens. If people want to cheat, they do it in so many creative ways.

So lots of people are being chucked out. Me apparently, is not one of them. My boss loves me too much, ha! Not a good thing, because I've been looking forward to try new things. Where our little section is concerned, we are not in too much hot soup.. I think.

At the moment, we are trading timber for the contruction of a road, in some third world country, where it is a "thing" to steal the wives of a person from another tribe. Since we will be clearing their forest, I hope I don't get kidnapped!

So hubby's still away. Will only be back end next week. I am handling it pretty well, much better now. The new home helps. Got much more entertainment and places to go.

Project X is also keeping me occupied. I will only be taking over the wheel (well 50% of it anyway) effective July. Meanwhile, lots of A & P planning to do. Exciting!

Teddy is so big now. The other day, while I was ironing my work blouse, he sat under the ironing and looked at me with his big orange eyes. Ocassionally, he would play with my sleeves that dangled from the board. He is getting to be so manja.

Somebody threw a pot of black paint at the house infront of mine 2 nites ago. I did not even realise it when my neighbor ask me if I noticed it. Black paint stained the roof and a little bit of the master bedroom sliding door. As we spoke, a car pulled up, with what we thought was, 2 under cover police and took pictures of the scene. According to my neighbor, sometimes when he smoked outside, there was this random guy who comes up to him and ask him questions about the person living in that house. What time he comes home... etc.. Scary... I lock all my doors, alarm on and left the lights on last night.

This weekend will be spent sleeping in late, and then golf. Why not!
