Not very eventful really.
Marika came round to visit this afternoon around 3pm, and said she'd take me to see the sunset. There is a beach bar near where i am staying, and it looks out over the sea.
We headed there and i enjoyed a beer while watching the last of the day slip below the horizon.
On the way back to mine we ran into 2 other girls that i dived with, on their way to visit me, so we all headed back to my place for a catch up.
There was some interesting information that came out in conversation though...
Turns out the drivers wife/girlfriend has not left the country after all.
She is still in the DR and staying just down the road!
Apparently she wants to chat to me about sorting something out other than the courts. She also said that she doesn't have money to offer though, so we will see...
I phoned my lawyer and gave him the news and he wants to set up an appointment with her next week.
I will try and make this happen and see what arrangement they can come to so that we dont have to go to court.
Hopefully something positive can come out of this?
Tomorrow they are supposed to be bringing me my fridge here that i have been waiting for since i moved in, and also kitchen utensils and cooking appliances, so that will be really nice.
Tomorrow is a public holiday in South Africa, so i will have to wait until monday for the specialists final assessment of my situation. I sent him updated details that he was requesting.
Almost weekend again. Not that it matters much to me. Every day seems to just blend into the next in my little world...
Hang in there bra!
ReplyDeleteFrom the words of another great bugger, I leave this for you!
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
Thanx bru,
ReplyDeleteI like it a lot!
Very cool poem.
My spirit shall not be battered. This is what keeps me going and keeps me positive.
When u relinquish control of your life for whatever reason, then you start a slow spiral downward.
If you live your life like a victim u will be forever unhappy with your lot.
Live it like a survivor and be forever thankful for each day...
Peace
