When I was at work, I was trying to communicate my wife Bertha, but there was no connection. When I got home, I asked her about her phone’s problem.
“My phone has lost. I was drawing water from the borehole. I had it in my pocket and I didn’t know how it lost. I believe that someone was just luck to find it and switched it off” she told me.

The semester was supposed to end in December this year. All Advanced diploma students were advised to sit for exams in March 2010 for some syllabus changed according to the exam board rule. In order to cope up with the new syllabus, we need to have enough time.
One of the new subjects is Legal Framework. We enjoyed the subject. It is very important subject because we are also looking some issues of law and business on development area.
In the afternoon, when I knocked off, my wife Bertha cooked nsima with beans as relish. When I was at work they took lunch with the same relish.
My son, McAlfred refused to take the beans again. “I have already taken beans when we were taking lunch. I can not repeat the very same beans as relish. And with this relish, I don’t have appetite for food” he told his mother. “It true with me I don’t like repeating the same relish I have already taken when taking lunch. He might be right” I commented what my son McAlfred said.
The boy belonging to a certain family in Chinangwa village married three years ago with one daughter. The man’s parents seemed not to like their son’s wife. They were used to tell their son that he should divorce the woman. They pretended that the woman was not beautiful. The son followed what his parents were saying.
He divorced his own wife. Many people were angry for the woman was just quite and faithful. They separated without real cause. It was very sad to the woman starving and lingering each and every time in the village. However the woman married another man and is living a happy life. Other people reprimanded the boy that he was wrong to follow what his parents demanded for he loved and married the woman himself.

The boy too responded that his in law is only one who has carried him away and is prepared to marry her. He assured the parents of marrying the woman.
The parents tried to caution the boy not to marry the widow (their sister in law) for they don’t know what caused her husband’s death. The parents tried to explain the dangers of HIV/ Aids pandemic, but the proposed couple did not care.
In the afternoon, I was discussing with the Kasinthula Project Manager about my aspiration to do attachment on the phase 3 expansion project.

I shall tell you the board’s resolution” the project manager responded.
I woke up and clean my home compound before taking bath. I was sweating due despite that it was morning around 5. I failed to take warm tea for that weather.
