About time . . .

Better late than never, hey?!
I've been here almost a week now and the idea I had of keeping in touch with friends and family as if I were still at home, smoothly, effortlessly, in the moment, is not to be.
The internet service here has been sporadic. When it is running, I use that word loosely, it is more of a lope than anything.
Hence, finally, the blog. Somewhere for me to calmly gather together my daily thoughts and experiences (she should be so lucky!) and then cast them upon the waters, in the internets own good time.
Peace, people.
