Walking the Talk

Yesterday we (Michael, Jann, Cheryl, Marco and I) took part in 702's Walk the Talk. We decided to walk for a cause to raise money for a home for abandoned babies in Berea. Because of this sponsorship idea we crazily decided to walk 15km. All in all it was a great day (besides the damaged tyre en-route due to an open manhole) and today we are all (except Mr Muscle Michael) a tad stiff. The award for the day goes to Jann, who walked 15km with us, then had to go to 5 hours of dancing rehearsals!

The resulting flat tyre that awaited Michael and Marco when the finished walking...


We walked with 40 000 Joburgers...


Finished and tired!

Mom's new car

So, I've been very quiet for a while, but a new job has been keeping me busy! Anyway - the title of this post is the order of the day, so.... For her birthday, Mom got this birthday card from her friend Dee, it was a sort of 50ies card covered with daisies and totally flower power idea. When Dad bought her a new car, the Yaris, he was not so thrilled that it was black, so in jest suggested maybe some daisies. So, Mom decided that she would cut up reflective vinyl strips (like those on trucks) to make daisies. Obviously, this was a no-go, so I bought some vinyl and cut daisies out of it and voila, Mom has a flower power car!
