Mysterious ways
Dear Diary,
That friend of mine that was in hospital after bumping his head in a fall and ending up in a coma, ended up in ICU with African fever (type of H1N1 swine flu). He was in quarantine for a few days and doctors were baffled as to what to do. His body started giving up.
He is now talking again. And responding to his name and opening his eyes...
WOW

So many ideas
Dear Diary,
I have so many ideas I want to do but so little time and so little resources.
I think my time is enough to an extent but the resources lack biiiig time.
A friend told me yesterday that he is going to patent my ideas, I responded saying I will have to patent him then.
What to do when there are multiple ideas but you don't know where to start?

Cellphone
Recently got the Samsung Galaxy S2:
I am a huge fan of Android after starting use thereof while I still had my Simbian phone (Nokia)
The Android OS is hugely user friendly, has sooo many apps via the Android market, and is just an awesome phone itself.
Dual core 1.2 GHz processor, Gorilla glass, thin, very good 8MP camera.
On the down side, the camera is not optimized for low light situations like the new Nexus coming out but still, on the contract I have, what I am paying and the phone I got, well worth it.
What other phones are good?

Savings and getting by
I opted this morn to align my pension fund contribution with the max allowable percentage for tax benefits (7.5% of salary) I thereby pay less tax, but more in Pension fund, so all in all I'm better off. Confusing, but true
I looked into ETFs last week and just realised, I'm moving out next week, and with all the extra expenses, my expendable income goes from 3000 to about 750.
I want to make lumpsum investments of 1000, as a way of saving money and getting a little pot for the future, but how do everyone save? I can hardly save with 3000 expendable, nevermind 750. I now start seeing the picture more clearly when it comes to the global economic problem. No on saves money and always get credit...
What a spiral...

Friend in need?
I visited a friend yesterday in hospital. He fell over e few weeks ago whilst in Africa for work, bumped his head and was put in a coma for recovery.
He was ok for a while but collapsed again and it looks like he will have permanent brain damage, and possibly become completely incapable of even going to the loo in his own.
For anyone who can pray, I (and he) will appreciate it.
I'll keep praying for him, for recovery, for better health and himself.
Hope we speak soon Joe, recover soon...

Strange dream
Dreamt last night that my girlfriend's 'puppy' had puppies. The one came out looking like a wire haired terrier and the other had hair like maltese poodles, but the puppy's mom is a Jack Russel...
I then went on to a convenince store/pharmacy, with a kid on my hip, taggin along with the baby's mother (my g/frined), the kid was my own, i think, clever too and talkative. I have no intentions of kids now, at all!
Then I met up with a friend I havn't seen in a long time and now live in Namibia accross the road form this shopping center. I dodged a car on the way to meet him, running accross the road and sliding over the hood like a stunt man. The shopping center in real life has a housing estate next to it, this was a golf course in the dream.
I have a friend that stays up the hill/road form the center, the first tee box for this course was next to his house where the stop street is suppose to be. I played a great round of golf with 2 twins, girls who I apparently know, foreign girls...
So random...

Reading about the year ahead
Reading about the year ahead is kind of scary in a way.
Uncertain economies in uncertain times.
Coming down the hill to work, dubstep blasting in the system, warm air through the window, dreaming of opening my beachbar on Phi Phi island. I'm on my way to work...
Golf practice was ok yesterday, putting still sucks, but irons improving and the pitching wedge and chipping is ok. Felt good but this morn I woke up with such a sore back. Guess I havn''t practiced for a while and it messed me up a bit, but gym this afternoon will get me going again.
As far as my investment portfolio is concerned, I have way too much gold bullion. 59% instead of the norm 10-30%. This is to curb losses when the economy dips and shares fall. The main aim of my portofolio is to genereate income via dividends, but will see how this year progresses.

MUST try and acquire more shares this year, all the while saving and investing and contributing to my pension fund and all that goes with it...

My first Working day for 2012
I drove to work this morn thinking, wow, the roads are so quiet.
Am I missing something?
I usually get the traffic of the schools on the way to work, but the schools don;t start for a few weeks still.
A guy on a mean looking bike passed me, I wish sometimes I had a bike for the summer weather. Wind in face, feeling free again.
Would be nice!
My head was already running through the day and what I had to do. Planning implementation of modules, restructuring processes, people, moving hardware and equipment.
At least the weather was nice and it was warm out. I am alive and healthy, going to practice golf later on the range and I'm feeling A-OK today.
Good job I went to bed earlier last night.
I couldn't fit into my work pants this morn, too much partying over the festive season, which was a good one (in between work). Time to buckle up, get a move on, start training again, get the shoulder to the wheel and get my ass in gear.
2012 is going to be good!
