Back in the saddle!

Sorry I've been so incommunicado!  Due to massive technical difficulties, we only JUST got Comcast here at our apartment.  

It's been a busy couple of months to say the least!  Our balcony garden is in full swing.  We're looking forward to having tomatoes and zucchinis.  I've been trying my hand at "companion planting", that is, planting herbs alongside vegetables as an organic pest repellent.  Been having moderate success with that.  We just bought a huge basil plant at the farmer's market, which smells heavenly!

I have been trying to figure out how to balance plain clothes with keeping cool in this hot weather.  Lately it's been so hot that I really don't want to wear much clothing, so I've mostly been wearing modest tanks with skirts.  On very hot days I haven't even wanted to bother with wearing a kerchief.  It's something I've been continuing to pray about.

I'll try to hop on here in the next few days and write about what's been going on spiritually.  I just wanted to hop on quick and assure you all that I have not disappeared off the face of this earth :).
