I'm so excited right now! I figured out how to put pictures on my blog! Now you can all SEE how I'm doing IN ADDITION to my ramblings! Wow! So anyways, it takes a long time (and eats up my uploading budget for the broadband connection) so I will pick a few at a time to send, and eventually you'll have a more whole picture of what my life here looks like. So to start with, here's my house- House #8 of Nyanza Glass compound, Nyegezi (outside of Mwanza).
Here is my living room, complete with (very old) lazyboy chair and couch, candles for when the power goes out (fairly often) and my computer. This is where I spend most of my time at home, sitting and enjoying music, reading and coffee on my chair.
I have beautiful flowers growing outside- Harry and Elaine Mueller who are volunteers that often come for 1/2 a year for the last 5 years or so are not here now, but they have made the place look very nice.
And, here is my bedroom, with my bed covered by my mosquito net to keep me from getting bitten by malaria-infested mosquitoes. If they do bite me, it won't be while I'm sleeping!So, I hope you enjoyed the little slide show- more to come later.

Wow, nice digs...I really like that blue flower - what is it called?
Steve,
Since your internet time is limited, I'll make this short.
It's great to see your blogs. I will try and keep up on them.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Mish and I will be praying for Robert as he undergoes medical intervention and moves toward greater health. Also will be praying for Wila as he begins his new job. Also will be praying for you and the Bible study with the boys!
Grace and Peace
Rob

HEY STEVE!!! I got your post card! MAN what a great surprise to get something like that in mail, thank you so much. I've never gotten a post card before, man I was so excited when I saw that this card was from AFRICA! I'm glad your having a great time out there. As for me, I'm doing just fine - school is going well, I'm working alot at the mall and I love my girlfriend more than ever, actually yesterday marks our 1 year. You're missed as much as you miss us Steve! See you soon!
thanks for the updates Steve - they were a pleasant read while I drank my french press made coffee :) sadly my desk chair isn't as comfy as a lazy boy...
Ah, so you do have the internet... never mind the question in my last email. :) And I'm sorry I forgot to send you instructions on how to upload images! I'm glad you figured it out!
Take care,
Rebecca
