Life's little Challenges

Life here is really not that much different to Australia....

You can still get ants in your sugar, insects in your rice, mice in the kitchen and little lizards..okay geckos, in the house. Glass still shatters when you drop it, the oil in the pan can still catch alight and send flames up high enough to scare you. You can still lock yourself out of your house, washing machines still break down, drains still get clogged, and the neighbours dogs still keep you awake....

and when too many happen in the one day, you can still want to cry, put on some worship music, or go out for a prayer/photo walk and be thankful that you have sugar, rice, a kitchen, glassware, a washing machine, a stove, a house and plumbing.... not too sure about being thankful for the neighbours dog though...

Hi Guys,

Love your pet! Hope the dogs next door have found a bone, and the plumbing is working again.

Mick asked if you could reply to his emial when you get a chance - he must have had a few question.

Love the blog.

God Bless, Bee

Hey the gecko looks like the one in our house the other day - maybe he has done a 'border run' :-)
Blessings,
Phil
