			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>My &quot;<font color="Red"><b>disappearing acts</b></font>&quot; ....<br />
<br />
First, thanks to everybody who has contacted me during my long and many absences from RetouchPRO, to ask if I was all right!!!  :pleased:<br />
<br />
Fact is ... I live like a &quot;gypsy&quot; ... My husband and I spend 6 months in Europe (Italy-Germany-UK), and 6 months in South Africa. <br />
I consider myself very lucky for this, <b><u>but</u></b>, there are many disadvantages as well... the worst are:<br />
<ul><li>doubled possibility of problems</li>
<li>half the time to solve them..</li>
<li>re-thinking and re-organizing my life ... twice a year</li>
<li>packing and unpacking suitcases</li>
<li>spending endless hours at airports and on airplanes..</li>
</ul><br />
Talking about airplanes... I still remember a long lazy afternoon of a scorching Italian summer, when it was too hot to even decide what to play at .... My brother, my friends and I (I was 5 or 6 years old) were just lying in the grass under the protecting shadow of a big tree when, very high in the sky, I saw a small silver 'dot' moving...<br />
Wishing it with all my heart, I simply said that one day I would fly on a plane!!!<br />
Everybody laughed at me ... none of our families had enough money for us to even take such a possibility into consideration!!<br />
<br />
Well, looking back, I couldn't agree more with the saying 'you should be careful with what you wish... it might come true!!' :wink:</div>
