I'm here.....I'm safe....

Hi everyone! I just wanted to post quickly and let you all know that I’ve made it safely to Afghanistan and finally settled in. I never thought it would be so difficult to arrange internet access here, but it has been such an issue! Now I have everything all settled and I’m ready to get back to blogging.

On a cool note, I do plan on doing a “Vlog from the frontline” every week to give you all a peek of what I’m up to here. Hopefully, I can figure out how to make really cool vlogs and can incorporate pictures of the landscape here, what I do at work and other cool things like that. Mostly, I just want to give everyone a weekly update on how I am. It will help keep me sane and busy, and I hope it will be a treat for you all. Once I get my schedule down pat, I should have the vlogs posted on Fridays.

Also, I've gotten quite a bit of e-mails asking for my address to send me letters and even *gasp* packages! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to get those from you all while I'm here. Those of you that did send e-mails, I've e-mailed back with the address. Anyone else that might like to send off a letter to me, I love you and appreciate you. Shoot me an e-mail and I'll give you the address as well. 

Thanks again to all that sent well wishes and prayers when I left. It kept me in a positive and hopeful mood while traveling the most dangerous part of my trip.You all are so great and I'm so lucky to have readers like you. I hope you have a great holiday and keep a look out for new posts from me!
