insult to injury

thanks for your comment jeni. we will all continue to pray for you and the family.

addind insult to injury ive had a frustrating week with loads of stuff breaking on me. the toilet got blocked, which was not a pleasant job to fix. my bike is busted, apparently i need new spark plugs but i dont have the motivation to take it to the shop. also my mouse trap has produced no furthur fruit which is a real shame as i was starting to get a taste for hunting. john, kerrys husband (the family i lived with for a month) has this air pistol, i might have mentioned about it, john hunts deer in USA so he's got a pretty mean shot. after a few weeks of trying to shoot one i gave up, john on the other hand shot 4 last week. my pride was utterly broken.

after all that has happened over the last few weeks i have genuinely started to enjoy living here, i have come through the culture shock time period and saw the light at the end of the tunnel. like i said i am a third of my way through my time here which came a as a shock when i realised that. although i feel like i have only just begun to really understand the way things work here and start to be effective. i hope the next 6 months will be fruitful.

for now i say goodbye, who knows when i will see you again...

Ben.
