Internet

Well, I wanted to post more about my photo challenge, but, unfortunately, the internet won't cooperate.  I have to find a time when it works better--if it ever will--before I can post any others.

As a matter of fact, posting any photos is not easy right now.  Oh well.  I just keep reminding myself that when I first came to Africa, we had computers that we used as glorified typewriters, and we had never heard or even dreamed of anything like internet.  Therefore, it isn't absolutely necessary to have access to it ALL the time. 

On another note, I'm enjoying having Grandma here for a while.  It's nice to just have someone to "hang out" with, especially when Roger is gone.

Photo challenge

I have some friends who did a photo challenge last November.  It looked kinda cool and since Roger tells me I should take more photos, I thought I'd also give it a go.  The first day was lost since it was Jan 1 and we all slept in.  The topic was "lunch" and since we hardly ate lunch that day, I forgot.  Not the best of beginnings, but since then, I've done better. 

Day 2  "Something beginning with G" (I have 3)
This was a little girl at the shop we went to with Grandma, who happens to be the next "G" photo.


Global Mamas is a self-help program in Ghana that helps local women market the cool things they make. Everything from clothing made from hand-dyed fabric to soap and lotion.

Day 3 "Words to live by"

Day 4 "Lost"
