Death to Pictures

I was really hoping to be able to put up some pictures today online so people can actually see some of what I've been up too/where I live HOWEVER I have encountered problems at each step of the way of trying to do this. I am not exactly technologically savy and so these problems are truly annoying to me. So if you all want to pray that technology would stop standing in my way/ I would suddenly be struck with the wisdom of the best way to get pictures to people that would be fantastic.

Last night I witnessed to a guy on the metro (subway). In my head all I could think was "I would never have done this in Canada... I can't believe I'm doing it in Mexico City". But it was kind of an opportunity thrown into my lap as all of a sudden he started talking to me in English as he noticed I was reading an english book. Pretty interesting, although to be honest when he first started talking to me I was a good Canadian woman and looked immediately for my exits as a strange man had just invaded my space by actually speaking to me in a public place (CRAZY!).

Yesterday was Owen's birthday and I was not there for it. Its hard to think we still have eight more months of being apart as it feels like its already been unbarably long. There's an Amy Grant song that in the chorus goes like this "missing you is just a part of living, and missing you just feels like a way of life. I'm living out the life I've been given... missing you all the while." I was listening to it the other day and had to turn it off cause it pretty much sums up how I feel right now. However I know I must make every day I have here count and therefore I will not get caught up in feeling sorry for myself. Hopefully.
