Life Caught Up to Me

Not that this is unexpected, but it has. I’ll get a real blog post up soon, get caught up with the photos, etc. Until then just know I’m alive and working a lot.

We had a big thank you event for our partners and friends here in South Africa yesterday, it was a ton of fun. It did mean, however, pulling a 17 hour day which included 5 hours of driving. I had a blast, but I’m still recovering.

That and when I tried to write earlier a game of badminton broke out and now I’m finding that I have no energy left whatsoever. It’s really hot and sticky here. How’s the weather where you are?
