Spoiled

I think I have gotten a little spoiled with all this high flatulent South African internet. No, we are no where near as fast as the internet in America, but after all, I do live in South Africa. We have come quite far in our internet technology in the two years I have lived here. We went from a car battery on top of the mountain, (which someone other than me got to change each week), to sun solar panels (no internet when it rains for days on end), and I honestly don’t really know how it all works now. I do know however how reliant ….and spoiled….I seem to have become on such an amazing invention: Internet. It’s my connection to the “outside world” – to You, my family, news, sports, fashion, the list goes on and on.

We haven’t had internet for many days (more reason for a delay in an update) and I’m starting to feel somewhat of a disconnect, a loss – what’s happening in the rest of the world? Yes, I have plenty of things to keep me busy here (keep reading so I can catch you up on what’s been happening the past 2 weeks while I have been “blog absent”), but I miss hearing from you. I miss the e-mails, the pictures, the stories of what is going on in your life. So, thanks for sending them when you do. I am spoiled that so many people care and love me and are praying for me.

Hopefully the internet is up and running now, but be patient; this is Africa, and it might just be working out the kinks and spoiling me just for a moment or two and might not work again right away. It has been in and out, so be very very patient.

Thanks for your patience!
