Last quarter
My Diary By Elderene Claassen on 9/30/2006

As we enter the last quarter of the year 2006, I am more determined than ever to reach my objectives. I'm embarking on a 6 week extreme outdoor fitness training programme. Have you given up on your goals, or are you still going? It's important that we stay true to our commitments and set good examples.

Huda
My Diary By Elderene Claassen on 9/9/2006

My friend Huda is celebrating her birthday tomorrow 10 September. Here's wishing you a lovely day and many happy returns. Enjoy the day with your family.
Huda was a major inspiration for me when it comes to running. She was the one who started me on this crazy journey of marathon running. We use to run together, well she was running, and I was trying to keep up. Happy birthday Huda.

My 'adopted' goddaughter, Candice is celebrating her 13th birthday on Monday, 11 September. Happy birthday sweetheart, Peetma's thinking of you and loves you very much.

Godmothers
My Diary By Elderene Claassen on 9/4/2006
Do you know the real meaning of being a godmother? Why are we asked and why do we accept? I have a godchild and another 'adopted' one. I have also agreed to take  parental responsibility for them if something should happen to their parents. I mentioned a couple of days ago that I'll be saying 'happy birthday' to quite a few people this month, and guess what? I've already forgotten my own godchild. And to make matters worse, it's her 16th birthday. Can I be forgiven? I'm suppose to be this very important factor in her life and I forgot her 16th birthday. I can never forget myself for that. So, here goes - HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TAMMY. Many happy returns and Peetma loves you very much.

Spring clean
My Diary By Elderene Claassen on 9/1/2006
The month of September always signify the beginning of spring to me. We use to have a Spring day at school where we'll bring flowers and get to dress up in pink (if you're a girl). Nowadays we often hear people talking about 'spring cleaning' their houses. It reminds me of a desire to open up and start afresh. We're also moving into the second half of the year and need to assess our aims (goals, objectives) set out at the beginning to see where we are and where to go.

My Diary By Elderene Claassen on 8/31/2006

I received this e-mail from Liam. I just have to share this with you. I love his spirit and young zest for life. Enjoy

Well guy's as much as I hate these impersonal all purpose multi
person e-mails I have had to accept that it is the best way to keep in touch with a large group of people!!!.
  Firstly I past my degree (yay me!!!) and have had a fucking wicked

Who's who?
My Diary By Elderene Claassen on 8/26/2006

Do you know how many people you know or had encounter in your life? Surely those of importance will remain in our memory, but what about the people that once was important? It's time we make a list and rekindle old (and new) acqaintances, don't you think?

Mommy Annelize
My Diary By Elderene Claassen on 8/26/2006
My dear friend Annelize (in Canada) was due to have her baby this week. I'm somewhat envious, but wish her well. As soon as I know whether it's a boy or girl, I'll let you all know. I know that she's gonna be a great mom. All the best to her and Gary. She's a very lucky girl to have her mom around for support with new baby. Congratulations to the family.
