riding on a wave of good news

after a slow year at work and a £10,000 per year deficit to plug, the last little while has been quite the slog.

but then the last week or so has completely turned round and so many amazing things have been happening. we got off to a great start in raising our monthly income, found out we would be getting some gap year students for September and we've had a great time doing transition work in school with these lovely year 11s. then on Sunday we met a guy who has offered to meet our monthly deficit! and today i heard that one of my favourite Zambians, Malesi Sakala, had her visa accepted and will be joining us for a year in September.

how utterly amazing!
