HAPPY HALLOWEEN ER- I MEAN BIRTHDAY!
So A turned 10 on Halloween. My computer totally crashed
so I missed my conference with our searcher /translator
who was going to help me call the orphanage
(remember we never have gotten through)
My life is on that computer so I was
being talked off a ledge by my staff.
Unbeknowst to me, he called without me!
( thanks dude!!!) and said the director seemed pleased
(but not giddy!) and said thank you for thinking of her.
He also asked if she (the director) had gotten our email
and she said she connections are sporadic but would check
& hopefully confirm to see that we have it right.whew!
All in all a successful mission! Still a long shot from
operation" COME ON OVER HERE & GET HER!!!"
but Im pleased.. if we can establish email contact
I dont have to tell you how cool that would be!!!
Best I can tell, this orphanage seems way better maintained. Clean, neat & the kids look happy.
You all know the rules I cant post pix of orphans
but suffice to say the kids look happy & well taken care of.
A FAR CRY from how Summer's orphanage looked.
It is a very poor coal mining town with dirty streets and half cut trees.It is get this-8 hours PAST where Summer was!
Talk about the ends of the earth!!!
I am now going to compose a letter that he can translate
to the director.I hope she lets us into her world
and in the process get closer to A.
I am not giving up!

My laptop crashed awhile back because my workplace decided to "upgrade" the security software and I lost some things too. Fortunately I had backed up most everything, but it still aggravated the crap out of me, because I had NO COMPUTER for about 3 days while they figured out what happened and coaxed my laptop back to life!
I learned from a previous painful mishap like that though... now I keep everything important backed up on CDs and also to an external hard drive that belongs to MOI. Same thing with my desktop at work. I keep nothing important on my computer hard drive... everything is on an external. Never know when we will have to evacuate for a hurricane and I can literally be ready to walk out the door with my hard drive in about 10 minutes.
Glad your meeting with the director went off okay. Prayers that you'll hear something positive soon!
Rainy just wanted to let you know we will be thinking of you all and Happy Birthday to Ms. A hoping next year she will be with you all on her special day.
