update

hi all
due to computer problems, there will be a brief pause in posts. by brief i mean 2 to 4 weeks. there are viruses on my jump drive that i dont have the software to fix, so i need to get my computer to a cyber cafe so i can download software onto it to fix the problem. this will probably take some time, as there are many other things that i need to be doing with that time, and some of that time will probably be spent high in the mountains helping to with other projects.

so, a quck update
ramadan is going just fine. fasting isnt that hard but it sure does make you tired!!! i have fasted for 11 days, but not consecutively, since the beginning of september. ramadan is half over now, the full moon was last night, marking the halfway point. i live in my own house, but it is unfinished. slowly i am fixing that. painting, and then washing and scrubbing, and then organizing of stuff, and then building of furniture from bamboo, and then reorganization... its a work in progress! something to take up the time, though, which is nice. i also have two kittens. they are rambunctious and adorable and way too small to be away from their mothers, but there you have it!!

in other news, i have been healthy for a good long strech now (ie. longer than two weeks), and hopefully that will continue!! sending you all my love
