The fall of the dice

So what is next for us? red-dice-icon

We do have a calendar, but it just changes day by day. For now we are in Patensie in the Eastern Cape.  “Where?” I hear you ask. Well if you look on the map it is just to the left and a little North West of Port Elizabeth.

We havethomas been on the road now for over 4 months. 4 Months was my limit and now we are over it. We are still going but with huffs and puffs. My steam is running low and I need some new coal for this train.

I don’t really feel like updating my blog right now and don’t really know what to say. We are waiting, waiting, waiting and more waiting!  Now what are we waiting for?  It seems like we are waiting for everything.

We are waiting for:

  • The Reserve Bank to give permission to start a Franchise in Macedonia
  • We will then have to complete forms and wait for Macedonia to give the big OK for our business.
  • Then our visa applications can finally start and then we have to wait for that. Waiting (1)
  • We are waiting to hear about a formal diagnoses for Jac on his autism.
  • We are waiting and searching for a place to stay in Pretoria, while we are waiting for all this! 

O I wish we could just go!

The children, well it seems they are not affected by any of this.

O, how I hope this was true.

It is getting to ALL OF US!

 

It is amazing how God is preparing us.

  • I wonder sometimes if this is needed and what it is God is preparing us for? 
  • Will my life be chaos from now on?
  • From the beginning of the year God has prepared and pushed me to LET GO!
  • Now it seems He is working on PATIENCErest in God and NOT HAVING ANY PLACE TO FIND REST, EXCEPT WITH HIM.
  •  

It is a good place to be.  My life needs to Pause right now, and I must not be in such a rush to achieve things and I must push the Pause button.

Image
  So we are entering our third week in Ankara – waiting on our visas.  We have used the time to catch up on some admin tasks, visiting friends, homechooling and enjoying the warmer weather. We are homeschooling the kids on Turkey history and the ancient cities etc.  We decided to have one ‘field trip” while in waiting and went to Cappadocia. (Kapadokia). Ons het een aand gaan oorslaap in ‘n grot hotel in Göreme.  We had some trouble with the GPS, although it spoke English all the other info was in Turkish.  So after period of trial and error we wound the town.  We also met up with other people from South Africa which was really nice. It was like entering a surreal place when you look over the Cappadocia valley. Fairy chimneys and the rock formations was just amazing.  The kids were entering one cave after another – eager to explore. Göreme Here are some pictures of the Lalezar hotel where we stayed for one night.  The kids loved it, it is ca...
