Wow, Jackie let the baby out of the bag:)

So now that you all think we are crazy, here is a bit more to add to the pile.

As Meron said, I am loading out 5 containers right now, 4 for Swaziland and 1 to Fiji.

I had originally planned to come home for 2 weeks and only send 2 containers but I got an email from Gleaners just before I left Swaziland and they gave us 160 barrels of dehydrated soup mix (36,000lbs) Each barrel has eighty 2.2lb bags in it (12,800 bags) and each bag feeds over 300 kids, if they have a little rice with it. 3,840,000 Kids

So I immediately called the freight broker and asked him to book another container. Then about an hour after getting off the plane, I received another call from a group of church people near Vancouver B.C. and they asked if I could use a 40 ft container full of clothes and hospital beds and other stuff in Africa. I thought for a minute and said yes but I’ll have to check on my finances, as they cost $7,000 each to send. He quickly interrupted me and said they have the money to ship too, so no need to worry about the money:)

I then called the freight broker guy again and asked if he could book a 4th container:) He said he would try but it’s getting close to sailing time and there might not be any space left on the ship but after an hour he called back and they had the space.

Then I made it home and went into our warehouse and could not believe my eyes. After measuring everything I realized we had way to much stuff for 4 containers, so I decided to send one to Fiji too:)

So as of this moment we are a family of 8 ? and we have successfully loaded out 3 of the 5 containers and we are loading another one tomorrow and the last one on Wednesday as the ship sails on Thursday, I know, cutting it close but that’s the way I like it:)

I also managed to run around amidst the chaos and buy the 20 chain saws and 10 weed trimmers and all the other things needed to run all the businesses we are setting up down there and I even called Meron once:).

The worst thing I had to do so far is, go out to the farm and dig out the little cat and the little excavator, they where buried under 8 ft of snow and no I’m not exaggerating. The little cat was so buried that I had to take the excavator and dig a path out to the road in order to get it out. The snow here is insane and it was 30 below zero well I was doing all this, even I, was questioning my sanity?

Well if I think of any more evidence I’ll post later LOL
