what did I do this week...

So its wednesday... and I pause to reflect on the week... what have I achieved this week?
Hmmm
A new 3.1 million dollar funding package for work to decrease gender based violence in Fiji...
A new partnership with save the children to provide specialist counselling services to kids who have been victims of sexual exploitation...
A new partnership with the National Council on Prevention of Suicide, and Fiji Police, to improve methods for targeting suicide prevention strategies to the people who need them most...
A new agreement to be the lead/convening agency of the working party to establish minimum standards and strategies for delivering mental health and psychosocial support in disasters.
A new agreement with Unicef to support our school based counselling programs
A new funding agreement to provide water filters to flood affected families
A new beginning to the total restructure of the way we are core funded over the next three years.
A new manager of counselling services
New branch managers for two of our branches
A new opportunity to work with one of the other major NGO's who have refused to communicate with us for years...
A new way of approaching the asia pacific sex work agency symposium we are hosting

Hmmm - and thats on top of the normal day to day work of being a CEO.  Not too bad for a Monday and Tuesday...plus 8 hours of driving to and from Suva...

Oh and two new chickens and a new first cucumber in my garden!

No wonder I am a bit tired.
It must be the cucumber.
