Sometimes I amaze myself. After forgetting to post twice last week, and being certain I would post on time this week, I forgot again yesterday. But that is not the extent of my incompetence. I was actually on a Partners conference call and we were talking about blogging. A half hour later, I left work without posting. But I'll do what I can.
Things are certainly slowing down here. Tinashe's gone this week, Pastor Daniel (our field guy) is in South Africa at a big church service there. And it looks like I won't get to start at the abattoir until after the holiday break. But yesterday a group of farmers was in town to set up bank accounts. That way, when we get the money from the abattoir, we can deposit it directly into their bank accounts.
One really cool thing about modern technology is that they'll automatically get text messages when their money becomes available. So they know when to come into town and pick up the money they need. Even though they live in the boondocks. Technology like that is really tying the world together.

P.S. It appears storms have my network connectivity on the fritz. I will post this soon.
