We have lost internet at home, for over 10 days now, and so I write now from an internet cafe down the road. I miss blogging more frequently, truly!

The news, from here, nevertheless, is all good. Last Sunday and Monday, however, I had intense pains in my tummy, only to be told by the school's doctor that I was having contractions! I am still a little doubtful of his prognosis, perhaps just choosing not to believe it, but I'm trying to take it a little easier all the same. Teaching at a crazy school like mine, miles and miles down the bumpy road, is probably not the ideal job for a pregnant lady who lives just below 10,000 feet, but I'm coping.
