Here’s to new friendships

I got a message a few days ago from Azza, the person who’s farewell I went to 2 weeks ago.  She thanked me for posting about her farewell on my blog, because one of my friends contacted her and has been helping her out since then.

C is such a special and awesome person (you know who you are :) ).  Not that she comments on my blog, but clearly she reads it :)

By doing what she has, she has touched so many people with her kindness and generosity.  Azza posted about what C did and how she helped her, on the baby forum where we met, and everyone there was buzzing about it.

Just to let everyone else in the loop, Azza has been having hassles getting her work visa approved, and C has been helping her out and talking her through it… and basically keeping her sane.  And then on top of that, C organised a week’s holiday in Sabie for Azza and her family just so they didn’t have to stay in their empty house.

I really hope that when Azza finally gets to Auckland that they’ll meet up IRL and become good friends.

You have no idea how that makes me feel.  All of a sudden, all the hours spent blogging is more than worth it.  I was walking around with a grin for hours.  Through me, a little sunshine was brought into someones life.  :)

I’m curious now, who else is lurking out there… please de-lurk and say howzit :)

wonderful story!

howzit! But you know I lurk here….I border on stalker! :-)

How nice is that of C hey? I wish someone would give me a weeks holiday….(Bali would be nice for all the lurkers out there) LOL

I’m not lurking - you know me. :)

Delurk, well I drop in here regularly for your photos … love your blog

Hello, I am not so much a lurker, as just not keeping up with blogs atm… but I thought I’d pop in quickly and say hi anyway.

Keep well.

Oh you are so nice talking about me!
I read your blog regularly so when I spotted your blog about saying goodbye to your friend, I just felt compelled to connect with her. I know what its like being so far away from everyone you know. I could make a difference and that makes me feel good. We will definitely be getting together once she arrives in AKL - which she will!

Keep up the blog. You are an inspiration.

I also read - and cried myself stupid - at audreycarolines story which you posted about.

wow so awesome of you C!!!
Azza hope you are enjoying :)
