it's been a little over two weeks since bre and I arrived in south africa. So far, most of life has been consisting of tackling the never ending piles of dishes and bottles, changing dirty nappies, playing, laughing, sometimes getting fustrated, feeding....
but TLC is going well. We are on a farm outside of johannesburg, and from what I can tell, somewhere south of soweto. I actually have no clue where I am, besides knowing that I am inside a brick wall. I feel kind of like I am in prison..( i guess I will explain more when I have the time.)
As for what God is trying to teach me? it's definitly about love. but I will go into that another time as well.
but I am having fun meeting new people from all over the world. a couple of days ago we celebrated austrailian day for the austrailian.
well, i should go...it's raining again...and the power might go off..i still have things i want to get done!
i will update more indepth....
p.s I am getting a sandal tan!

Friday, January 09, 2009

I thought that I should take this time to update, since I am not too sure if I will have internet access when I get to Jo-berg. I guess the phone lines go down quite frequently there because people steal the wire in the phone lines to make jewellery. So chances are I wont be on facebook all to much in the next couple of months. Which is a good thing. When I tree planted I could be out in the middle of nowhere and still access internet. I am curious though, I wonder the less I use internet, the less I will probably feel the need to stay connected.
We fly out tomorrow morning at 6:30, which means that we have to be at the airport bright and early in the morning. The chances of me sleeping tonight are next to none, I can never sleep when I have stuff rolling around in my brain. But I will make sure that we go to the airport early. Last time I flew out of Saskatoon, I thought, "it's saskatoon, like there is going to be a line up". Then I found out that the saskatoon airport is very busy in the mornings, and I was freaking out that I was going to miss my plane to vancouver as I looked at the massive line up that extended to the check in desks.
I don't know what else to say.
Basically all I am thinking about is...
I AM GOING TO AFRICA!!!!
I thought that I would be a little more nervous, but I am not.
Pray for us!
