Wow, I just survived my first HUGE thunderstorm here. I'm holding down the fort while Jenn and Kaben are in Southern Sudan for the Independence. Our roof over the living room is just a long piece of metal nailed to some support beams. Every time it rains, our living room gets soaked. Well I haven't seen a rain like this since being here! The wind blew all our windows open and flooded our living room and kitchen. I was dumping buckets as fast as they were filling up, treading through 2+ inches of water. Insanity. But at the same time it felt really good to feel that this is my home...my place to protect.
The power has been out since Thursday, so last night a group of us got together for a Mexican dinner by candle light.
Enjoying the company of my new family. Much love to family and friends at home.
