This week
has been a week of GREAT relief.
I went to the airport in Bishkek for the second time early Monday
morning to try and get to Ukraine again. The customs guard had recognized me from the
last attempt to leave. I was relieved to
see him stamp my passport so that I could board the plane. The flights went great with no lost luggage
and I got to Kyiv at the start of a big snowstorm. Fortunately the bus got downtown before
traffic got really snarled up. I still
had no winter clothes but had a nice warm train to Krivoy Rog. Since I arrived in Krivoy Rog on Tuesday
morning the weather has been fairly warm and I haven’t needed the winter
clothes yet. But that’ll change soon
enough and I’m ready this time.
I was also VERY relieved to find that my computer could be fixed (at less than $40.00). It has some new quirks and some features acting up but it’s at least useable for now. So I have been working hard the last couple of days to get my paperwork and posting caught up. Now that I’m back in Krivoy Rog, other than catching up on my computer stuff, I have just been settling in. I’m still working out if I have ANY budget left for ministry. Not having to replace the computer just yet is certainly a big relief. I think I have just enough to pay my personal expenses for a while and an airline ticket to Canada in February. This was a planned trip any ways as I have to get a new passport and get some things caught up there. I'll talk more on that another time.
I’m really looking forward to a busy season with McJoyful Christmas coming up and I’m anxious to get back to visiting the kids as well. Other than that there’s not much news for now.
