September is going going going......

This month has been a busy month as the various aspects of our work have increased for different reasons.
Ron is finalising 2 essays wehich will conclude his 3 years of study to acheive his Masters in International and community development. In the midst of his Bendigo appointment and then the change to living in Moscow he has undertaken this study with a distinction average mark - well done i say!!!
In his projects work a review team from London for a week to look at the project training progress and so there was much needed to prepare and process these visitors.
For me the work has been mostly preparring for a offciers congress due to be held next week. 150 delegates from the 5 countries will come together in Moldova for 3 days of meetings. I have been tasked with the organisation of this event and so it has meant bringing together a small team and following through the needed arrangments. This is also meant a few days in Moldova last week to sort out arrrangements at that end. Added to this has been the preparation of 20 hours of cadet lectures.
So we remain with plenty of work to do .

The excitement builds as we now prepare for our trip home. Our 12 month in country anniversary had us reflecting on our arrival last year and all that has happened in this year.
The change of lifestyle, the change of work, the change of friendships, and the change of how we communicate with loved ones.

But for now it is hard to focus ...all I can say is.....
BRING ON OCTOBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
