so it's been a while. i haven't been in nicaragua this whole time i've just been slackin' on the whole blog thing. sorry to leave you all on the edge of your seats like that. to be honest, you haven't missed too much.

my biggest adventures lately have centered around my car breaking down about 4 different times in the last month. that has been a little rough on me. if you don't me that well, i'm pretty independent - usually to a fault. this whole car situation has forced me to depend on other people and ask for help - two things that make me very uncomfortable. the first three incidents were in tulsa and my friends here, especially brad and his family helped me out so much. jon even let me borrow his bmw for a weekend, which was definitely an unexpected benefit.

the last breakdown was in atmore, alabama. atmore is in "deep south" alabama. places in "deep south" are charming and nice to visit, but it's not somewhere you want to be stranded. this time my family stepped in and helped me out. my dad drove several hours from birmingham to get me and my sister and her husband let me borrow their car. they have been awesome. even though i resist help, it is such a blessing to have people around me that are so kind and so good to me.
