Hi guys

Well its been such along time since I have updated this blog. I have been distracted with work which really is no excuse amongst other things.

I am working very hard and work takes up allot of my time over the last few months. Derek and I are doing very well and are also feeling the economic pinch. There are many things which we would love to do like visit friends in France and Germany but at this present time our finances do not permit that.

Derek has taught me to pay your debt first.

The path that we are on at the moment is to get our debt settled and then think of going to Germany, Canada and France.

Its better to have capital at hand which you know that you do have available than running yourself into debt and not been able to get out of it.

Today is Madiba’s birthday and we should all give 67min of our time to do something for someone else who is in need.

We have to be responsible with our fiances now and make the best of each situation as it arises and not let ourselves be fooled by using the credit available that we may have then paying it back plus interest and putting ourselves in a difficult situation.

I love my spouse and life itself. We have come thus far and together we shall overcome all obstacles that come our way, that is what a partnership is all about.

This month I had the privileged of meeting Derek’s Aunt and Uncle and they where great they accepted me as their son in law and it was wonderful. I can’t even begin to tell you how loved and accepted I feel by Derek’s family, since I have lost mine and have lost contact with my aunts and uncles and some of them have passed on over the years.

I miss my cousins and nephews which I too have lost contact with.

As I have always said family is so important and the one that now has accepted me into the family has made me feel blessed.

I will update soon again

Mark
