MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY 2007!!!

Merry Christmas!

Sorry these postings are becomming less and less frequent, as well as shorter and shorter. I never get to internet lately and when I do I panic the whole time about doing everything in the short amount of time I've allotted.

Anyway, enough apologies. How is everyone? Send me a comment, let me know how you're doing.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. I have just returned from Lake Malawi (look it up on Google Images, you won't be sorry). It is the most amazing and beautiful place I've laid eyes upon in a very long time. I went with Blessed. We had an incredible time. Photos to come when I get to Mansa next week. I don't have my card reader with so I can't post photos from here. Blessed and I are in Lusaka and we'll be leaving for Livingstone on Saturday. We're going to see
Victoria Falls, one of the seven natural wonders of the world, I'm so excited!

I have many reasons for excitement lately. For those of you who have not yet heard this through the grapevine of the Bennett family or Smith College networking, Blessed and I are getting married in July!!! We're so madly in love and he's headed to London for a year-long program in HIV/AIDS in Society in October. So we're tying the knot and moving back to the States together when I finish here and he finishes there. So, that's my biggest news. My family and a few friends are planning to come for the event and I'll be so thrilled to share our day with them all.

Okay, I know this is brief. Many apologies. I need to get going now. Errands in Lusaka take forever because we can't walk even one block without Blessed running into someone he knows.

I miss you all so much!!! I hope everyone will have a wonderful and safe New Years. My phone is always on. Give me a call. Get the number from my mom (even I wouldn't put my phone number on the Internet!)

Hugs and smooches to you all,
LIBBY
