My room!

I'm home!
The carpet layers came and put carpet in my to-be room today, so I was able to come home. (I was staying over at the Mex City Home for a couple nights - thanks guys, and Rayne, for your hospitality - seeing as my room was/is not ready yet.)
I'm so excited - I'm going to get to set up my room all nicely. Yeigh! I took some pics of it and its bare walls, curtainless windows, doorless door, etc. :) I do have a desk, along with a nice chair, and hopefully a bed is coming tonight, but I still need curtains, light fixtures (there's just a lightbulb now - HA!) and a wardrobe too, so your prayers for supply is greatly appreciated. I love setting things up a new though, this is bound to be fun. Here are some pics (oh, and yes, with my new digital camera. Fun, fun!)

Last stretch back home!

I take off from Florida today to return to my new house in Mexico City! Yeigh! Your prayers for the trip would be really appreciated!
I was due to travel back the 21st but after being sick for so long (yup, the first two days in Florida I was in bed with a fever), I broke out in hives, which I've never had, so that was special and nasty all in one. I was too sick to travel so we postponed my flight for two days, and though I'm still having outbreaks I'm not feeling sick anymore, and the outbreaks are smaller. I ate some good red meat the other night and am not feeling like I'll faint if I stand up (guess it had been about a week since I'd eaten a real meal other than a quick snack or airplane food) so I'm booked to fly out this afternoon, arriving in Mexico City around 10:00 pm local time after a quick stop-over in Atlanta.
I hope to not have overweight, but please pray the whole check-in and getting back in to Mexico is no pain at all, and that I don't have an outbreak of hives on the plane. I've been caking myself in calemine lotion to keep the itching at bay, but I can't take it on the plane (due to the "no liquid/gels" policy) so if I have an outbreak, oh dear! So yes, your prayers that this will just all end would be appreciated.
TX everyone - be back online in Mexico!

I think I'm crazy!

I take off for the US tomorrow (16th) - its been a very short time here in Hungary, too short, but PTL for the opportunity to see my family. I'm still not feeling well, seems I have a bit of a fever today as well and my head is generally feeling like "lead" right about now. Please pray for extra strength. I don't know what I have, but its dragging on, and kind of messing things. - I guess that's what I get for trying to fit so much into a tight time-frame. It's age, I tell you, I'm not as young as I used to be. Sniff... Again though, please pray for this next "hop" in my trip, and thanks to all of you for your prayers so far. Sorry I haven't replied to comments in my comments section, for some reason it hurts my head to figure out the verification codes, so I've avoided them. I'll catch up soon though! (And will send your love to folks, Gabe!)


In the meanwhile, here are two pics of Ang and I in Sardegna - hope you see them Vida, and forgive me Ang, but you look so pretty here. ;)

P.S. Sorry for the expression I'm making, not sure what I was thinking/doing, but either way, the beach/water in the back is what you're meant to be looking at. :)

Prayer request!

Hi everyone! I'll post some pics soon, but I just wanted to type up a quick prayer request seeing as I'm taking the boat to mainland Italy tonight.
I will have a cabin all to myself, so that's lovely, but due to the extra stress and pushing myself, as well as eating something I shouldn't have I ended up having a bit of a rough day physically the other day, and last night I had a pretty high fever. I took a few aspirins today and am feeling a bit better, but am still rather weak and drowsy, and in order to get to my next destination I need all the strength I can get. I'll be taking off tonight at 22:30, arriving in Civitavecchia-Rome at 7:30am tomorrow morning, and then taking the plane from Rome 15:30.

If you could pray for miraculous healing, I'd really appreciate it. Also that I'll have a good night's sleep on the boat (with no choppy seas) and that I'll wake up feeling strong and healthy in preparation for the next stretch.
I might be a bit overweight with my luggage allowance too (from Rome to Budapest - its only 20 kgs allowance) so if you could pray that there's no hassle whatsoever, and that I can make it on to the flight safe and sound, get to Budapest and meet up with my mom and brother with no problems, that would be a big blessing.

Bye for now!

I'm alive! :)

Yes, I'm in beautiful Sardegna - and more than alive. - The Lord's spoiling us, really! We have a nice appartment right on the beach (almost) and its beautiful.
Ange, my partner, has a digital so I'll have some pics soon I hope. She has a knack for documenting the many strange faces and poses of Cel (she even thinks I look like Timone - when I'm dressed as a clown, of course - oh my goodness), so I might have something to post.
I also managed to provision the usage of the internet connection so that's been a blessing, however I'm not online much as when I am I'm working, but either way, its been great. I'll update you later! TX for your prayers everyone, please keep them coming.
Ciao!
