Had a wonderful time back at the US for our missions conference in February and then had an equally wonderful time with my Mom, 3 sisters, a brother-in-law and a friend of his in Austria over Easter week. We met in Vienna, Austria and the 7 of us had time in Vienna, traveled to Salzburg, then Tirol, skied, then returned to Vienna and spent Easter Sunday there. We all departed on Easter Monday. A fantastic time! Happy Resurrection Day to you! (Cultural tidbit: Romania celebrates Easter on May 1st this year!)
As we all knew, my life here in Eastern Europe was never going to be dull. Well, the latest thing is …. my laptop was stolen from me on my way back to Romania on the train from Budapest! Nothing happened to me, PTL! I purchased a replacement desktop computer last Saturday with loads of memory on it to take me into the future. My computer guy, Ottila, had reported the computer stolen over the web to other computer people and last Monday he received a call from another computer person here in Romania that they had my computer!! Someone was trying to sell it and he will be returning it to me! The miracle is that the laptop showed up in Romania and not another country, and that they did not erase the hard-drive! I am now waiting to receive it - I was told it would take a week. Someone told me the Lord must have wanted me to upgrade!! Please pray that the Lord continues to protect it until I have it back and that this miracle will speak to the heart of Ottila, my computer guy. Thanks!!
Yes, thanks for asking - health has been good - feeling much better.
I have a little visitor at my home for the next 10 weeks - I agreed to look after a friend's Pekingese dog while they are away in the States. I am getting a few more walks in than usual and he is nice to have around!
Things are now gearing up for starting at the hospital this month! Loads to organize and do as we go forward in this next phase!
