I am so excited! I was actually able to post a new blog on xanga today!!! Xanga is a great blogger, but it is NOT designed for slower than the slowest dial up internet! But it worked today!!! YEAAAA. Maybe Macapa is catching up with technology...yea how bout no. :)

Anyways- hmmm what have I been doing since April 16th, 2006 when I last posted a blog. Well, besides everything....lol... The biggest "thing" (if you can call it a thing) is getting packed to come home; for good. holy cow I NEVER knew just how hard it is to pack your life into 2 suitcases but it is NOT easy! Be thankful if you never have to do it. It is not as easy as it seems! I nearly started crying out of frustration! :P But there are some good things to having to do this...I just haven't figured them out yet! (lol) I'll get it. I'm just glad I have 31 days to figure it out and I'm not leaving tomorrow.

Aside from packing which really takes up most of my life at the moment, we have been helping house a ywam medical team that is here for a health impact. They aren't staying here all the time, which really is good because we could really get in each other's hair! But they've been here on and off starting at the end of June. It's so cool because we've had so many different cultures in our house. We've had Brazilians, Kiwi's (which is what New Zealander's are really called....reason being b/c their country bird used to be that...ha! I bet you didn't know that!) Netherlander's, Canadians and Americans here! It really has been fun. I leard how to say "Are you going to swim" in dutch...swima? hahaha I am serious though. Not sure on the spelling of it, but that is how it's said! :)

I really have enjoyed the time we've had here. I have made some wonderful friends, and I honestly will miss them so much. It's such a strange feeling to have lived in a place that no one knows about except my family. I'm really NOT making it up though!! :)

Well, I think that is all for now. HOPEFULLY...the internet will let me do this again before I come home! Ha! we'll see....:)

Tchau for now...God bless!
