...
I'm sure many of you will smile when I tell you that I came home to winter here in Bolivia. Yep...it's cold out. I've got my fleece vest on over my jacket, and I had to dig out my tuque and mitts. On the upside, this will maybe last a week at the most, and then it'll be +30 again. =) So laugh while you can all you Canadians. You know I’ll be returning the favour next February.
So...what else did I come home to...
...well, a house full of guys who seemed happy to see me. They were kind of distracted by the World Cup games, but they smiled at me when I managed to direct their attention away from the TV for thirty seconds. So it’s all good. That’s really the most I could have hoped for.
...a staff member who was REALLY happy to see me. =) Things went well while I was gone, but Maribel was still relieved to have someone else back in charge I think. Her family is happy to have her back as well.
...a broken truck. But what else is new.
...I managed to get my internet all paid up today and turned back on. But then the electric company shut off our electricity. Oops. Oh well...it’s not the first time that’s happened, and I’m sure it won’t be the last. I’m hiding out at a coffee place this afternoon waiting for my mechanic to have time to look at my truck, so hopefully by the time I go home it’ll be turned back on and all will be forgiven.
All in all...things are good. My pastor and friend, Jorge (for those of you who know him) and his wife Viviane had a baby boy, Eduardo. As you can see, he’s a cute baby (not all babies are you know..). He also has a head of hair like you can’t imagine. Some might be a bit jealous of that...
Anyhow...that’s life down here. As soon as I can get it uploaded, I’ll be posting a link to our new video. Come back soon and check it out!
As always, thanks for praying for us down here.
