Phriday Photo Phinish Phiesta

I've been hinting at the crazy work schedule I am keeping at the moment. Let me tell you a bit more about this. I am acting as supervising architect on a project of 54 high class houses, a clubhouse and a guardhouse. The project is nearing completion and we literally have to inspect, list faults and check if these are corrected in every nook and corner. It is long hours outside in the sun in high temperatures (Monday was an exhausting 36 degrees C - that is 97 degrees F and the African sun is very very hot. Today is raining, so we worked until the rain became to hard and everything was done to could be inside the houses. And what do I find waiting for me at the office? Lovely flowers, and in the orange striped packet, sunblock - all from the developer as a thank you for our effort. Some men knows just how to keep a woman happy and focused on her work!

Pop over to Carrie to see who else is playing along.

  1. Yikes! Long days! We are suppose to be in fall here, this morning it is - 45 deg F. this afternoon? 80. Not hot, but not fall. I hate the high 90's, makes one wonder why I live in a hot area! haha

  2. Wow! That is a very smart person who sent the flowers. Stay safe and cover up. Skin cancer is very ugly! My poor husband has had more spots removed than I can count. I don't care to ever get a tan again as a result. Not worth it. Are you able to take photos of some of these projects and share them with us?
