Computer issue.

So I have a new computer.  Yay!
Thank you to all of the supporters that contributed to this.  You have no idea how amazing it is to have my own computer, with all of my old files (songs, pictures, notes from AIM classes) on it.  Thank you thank you thank you!
But there's a problem.  I don't know how to hook up my phone to work with my computer, so my Internet isn't working yet on my computer.  And I'm not sure how to even go about getting that to start.  Tyler (the resident Mac expert for our team) isn't sure, and Kuda (my South African friend who works with computers) aren't sure how to do it, so I'm pretty much lost.  I thought it would be easy but...it isn't.
So for now, I'll keep borrowing Diana's computer when I can.  She's been so awesome about this, very giving and very willing to share.  That girl keeps me on my toes.
Also, I got my final "birthday box" from home.  My mom and grandparents sent me lots of good things!  Some pajamas (which are now my favorite after last night), some books (which are much-needed, since books here have to be imported and are so expensive), beads and stuff to hand out to people (which will come in handy with the girls at church).  So it was a great, great surprise.  Thank you guys....I'm not sure you'll ever know how much this really means, but thank you.
I have a meeting tomorrow (Wednesday) at noon (5 a.m. your time) with Sherry, a lady from a women's shelter here in PE.  We're going to be talking about what I can do and how I can work there.  So please keep that in your prayers these next few days.

I'm going to go now, but hopefully I'll be back on here soon.  I miss you very much, and love you tremendously.  Please keep me in your prayers.
