I hate being sick ...

So, it's been a week now that I've been battling this cold/flu junk. I hate being sick. At the moment it consists of lots of sinus issues, sneezing and congestion. Does not make for fun times when trying to care of six kiddos.

Even with all of that, it's good to be back in the swing of things. There's been lots of talk lately about what the future holds, esp regarding the opening of the new house. I'm really pushing for limiting it to six kids ... I think that's all I can handle should I have to do the job on my own. Sounds crazy, huh? Going from zero to six kids sounds like something I can handle. God has such a sense of humor.

Another popular topic is that of my marrying a South African since I'm looking to be here for a while. Don't know why people are so focused on it. I feel bad when I tell South Africans that South African men aren't my cup of tea. I think it makes me sound a bit like a snob, even though I am sincere when I say that I'm not sure it's likely. But, hey - I would' ve said my being sent to Africa long-term wasn't likely a few years ago. So, who knows?
