I got mine at an ayurvedic shop, then filtered it myself. But it’s not white – it’s a tan color. If you want white, it needs to be bleached somehow, and I have no idea about that.

You are so creative. You put some effort to do this thing and I hope its effective for me if I will also do that. I wonder what is more cheaper and more comfortable. I haven’t use petroleum jelly yet.

RenLass! That is likely how I’ll always remember you… It just gives such a lovely, I don’t know, aura to you – makes me think you’re always happy and upbeat.

Funny thing about New Zealand… It didn’t work out. We left at the end of July, actually. I should really update the blog. The business end of things was going fine, in fact, but immigration decided to change some conditions after we arrived that were not, ah, entirely friendly. So we both prayed about it and decided that it was time for us to leave, so we did.

We’re currently in Sri Lanka while we plan our next steps.

The ward I was in was delightfully balanced and down to earth and multicultural – about a third of the ward was Maori, a third Chinese, and about a third white with other variations thrown in. It was diverse and lovely.

You’re old enough to have daughters getting married? Congrats on the second daughter. I hope it wasn’t too stressful.
