    After an email from Lindy that seemed to change our previous terms, I got a bit worried. The dates had changed and so had the allowances we had agreed on. I wrote to her. Hello Lin, I am not certain if I understand. 1. If we travel to the center on Friday to arrive on Saturday, will that be [...]

    Wednesday Today, one phone call threatened to mar the beauty of this experience. Sure things have been going wrong for a while, but I wanted to focus on the girls and what we could learn from each other. But now it seems I must go over some of the things that have gone wrong.

    On March 27th, this year, on a Citi Hoppa Bus from Ongata Rongai to the City Centre, I suffered a severe attack of pain that started about ten minutes after I boarded the bus and lasted the entire 1 hour and 20 minute ride. I got off the bus and pretty much crawled to my [...]

    Okay, I just made a decision that is freaking me out now that I have made it. No, I am not sad freaked out. I am strangely happy. Very strangely happy. I guess it takes a bad experience to help us see things in a whole new way, a wonderful new way. Enough about the getting freaked [...]
