And we're back....

It's time to revive Ye Old Blogge. It's been awhile since my last post. It's a little ironic - it's been probably the most crazy time of my life, yet, what to write? Not for want of things to say, it just seemed as if putting the events of the last couple of months down on *ahem* paper would not do justice to the emotions involved. So I will not attempt, except for the brief summary below;

A) We moved into a slum whose main feature is waste water canal about a metre from our front door, and is sandwiched between two railway tracks.


B) A 21 year old from our community was subsequently killed on said railway tracks behind our house. The experience of grief with a Hindu community was both a privilege and a really hard time.

C) Our landlady turned into a dragon. Living at home was a little difficult. Looking for a new house so soon was an added stress. Since changing her mind about the whole dragon thing, things have been much more peaceful.


D) A health scare with our two year old. Hospital trips eat up time. Mental capacity diminished greatly. Thanks God for a happy ending.


And that's all I have to say about that. In other news, relationships with the neighbours are going well. Their names are Narkel, Sada, Naru and Cini. Unfortunately one of them fell of the roof yesterday (I'm not sure which one) and now will not come out from the safety of a narrow gap between two walls. Here they are in happier times...
