Returning...
So since November I haven't felt like reading blogs or writing here either, weird. It was the thing I did for fun, and to handle the stress of sickness. But just recently starting to feel a bit better and started thinking about the monthly link up on A Chronic Voice. Maybe I'm returning to blogging?
Stressing while riding out 'Rona in the Reap
As an Australian living in Cambodia, I've seen a few fellow foreigners make a quick exit . As the virus situation changed overnight, less and less flights available and borders closing. We are staying put here in Siem Reap. Two big stressors with that are that we feel cut off from good medical care, normally nearby Thailand would be our option for a big emergency, and the other one is that the whole town lives off an industry (tourism) which has sharply decline over the last few months with no end in sight. When will tourists come back? December this year? Not till next year? This blog explains the institution here: Move to Cambodia, Staying in Siem Reap...
Celebrating Jesus' resurrection
In the weeks leading up to Easter we read out loud from an English translation of the Hebrew scriptures about how God saved his people out of slavery. We also read from the book of Matthew and Mark, the final chapters about the events leading up to Jesus' death and resurrection, also about how God saved his people. Our kids really got into drawing while we read out loud.
It felt like the whole world turned upside down in March, but also like we are still at home with our kids as normal.

Hi Katherine, thanks for joining us this month as a way to return to blogging (maybe) - we're honoured to have you! I hope you and your family keep safe there in Cambodia. I know what you mean by having no access to medical care and how frightening that can feel. Sending hugs!
Thanks Sheryl, so far so good and feeling a bit calmer now than back in March.
