The answers about me
- Are you named after someone?
Not that I know of, I do know I was named by someone – my maternal grandmother, a feisty woman who felt that even though my parents had been married for less than a year, when my mom fell pregnant she had waited too long for a grandchild and named me Lindiwe, meaning “The one who is waited for”
- When was the last time you cried?
Last weekend, I am not an emotional person, unless I am very angry or feel powerless or my children are unhappy, or not doing well. It was one of those weeks.

Oh yes I do , TheHeir is 9 years old and is doing Grade 3 this year, and TheSpare is 2 years and is doing the “Grade Driving us crazy”
- If you were another person, would you be a friend of yourself?
Yes, I would I am at peace with who I am flaws and all. I am a loyal, loving scatterbrain, none clingy friend, but I will be there with a shovel if you need to bury any bodies.
