In limbo

We are sitting by the phone waiting for it to ring. I am exaggerating of course but at the moment I am unsure whether I should be packing my bags, pots and pans, and everything else in the house, and getting ready to move to Lusaka, or continue twiddling my thumbs in the DATF office in Mazabuka. Since the start of the New Year we have had a number of meetings with NAC, the World Bank and UNAIDS, which have all been perfectly useful, pleasant conversations but progress remains slow and why there is a delay is not completely clear. The limbo is compounded by friends, many of the Italians, sadly leaving Zambia and therefore it feels like a good time to change and leave sweet Mazabuka behind for something new. A move to the big city awaits, I am just not too sure when exactly at the moment.
