After 3 Months, I Finally Have Internet!!!!!

And I am extremely behind in my emails. Sorry, I just can't keep up. Things have been really hectic. We are coming up on an Eid break....2 weeks off!!! Then we go back to school for 5 days and have another 16 days off until Jan 4, 2009!!! I can't wait. I just want to sleep in one day. If I ever cross your mind, please remember to pray for me. Things are good here, really good, but under heavy attack. There have been many times where I feel as if I know what Job went through.

Well, I tried to add some pictures, but it seems as if Safari still doesn't want to work for me.

A few things I've done so far:

Taking Arabic classes (I had my first exam today).
Had a BBQ in the desert.
Rode a 4x4 over sand dunes.
Smashed a cupcake in this guy's face!
Witnessed my first RAIN storm in the desert.
Broke my tooth.
Went to a student's birthday party....and danced.
Had parent/teacher interviews.
Praised my boys for their outstanding performance during fire drills.
Read a great book about a missionary couple.
Met really wonderful new friends.
Said goodbye to some lovely people I've met here.
Gave a bunch.
Preparing for Thanksgiving.
Saw some falcons in the desert.
Played with fire.

...but most importantly....

becoming closer to my Lord and Savior!
