I am home alone. That does not happen all that much around here with five people living in the house plus fairly constant vistors. I would not have it any other way of course, as an extrovert I get my energy from people and being around them but I am enjoying this time. Mum is in Alice, Keith in Adelaide, Gem in Germany and Martin at the RSL watching the State of Origen so I have put on Luke, made some food, poured some wine and sat down to catch up on some emailing and of course some blogging……

I watched the Live8 concert on the weekend and like someone else mentioned in their blog, I have forgotton who but I know i read it, I think this whole Make Pverty History thing is the most exciting thing going on in my life right now. I really don’t think I amsayong that beacuse I have a boring life but because the fact that poverty could be halved in the next ten years and that I and my friends in our small way have made a difference in that is just the most exciting, inspiring, amazing, wonderful thing that I can think of. I am also really excited as I bought some of those Make Poverty History Bands and I decided that I would give them to people that I did not think would know much about teh whole campaign. So I gave them to the girls at work and since I did almost all of them have worn them most days and some of them, one in particular is getting really excited about it and always asks me what is happening with it all and then tells her friends and family about it. It’s great, really as I said it’s just the most exciting thing in my life.
