One month in my new house

Those of you who follow my blog might wonder what the last one was about. You see my Internet is on one minuet, off the next. I thought it was bad at the other house, but I was wrong. It could get worse. I am now looking into options to get another carrier. This time I am saving after each sentence to make sure I don't loose it all.

Last month I moved into my own place. I was blessed to have so many friends help
me and the move went smoothly. We had everything at the new house by 10:30 in the morning. Praise God. I spent the rest of that day with friends helping setting things up. With
only
about 4 boxes left to unpack I headed out to the hardware store
to get a few things. (a shower head and a new lock). This complete I headed back to my new home. What a wonderful day. However I did find my refrigerator was not working
properly, so I had to get a repair man here to help. $$$$$

Now I have been here exactly one month and things are going smoothly. I got all
my things up on the walls. (this is no easy task, because the walls are concrete). The only concrete nails I have found are about 4 inches long. So that done I contacted my friend to have window screens installed. Last Thursday they finally finished doing that. It just finished raining and I am glad to know I will not have any mosquitoes in the house. :-)

I will try to attach a few pictures of my new place. It is 3 bedrooms a large living/dinning room area and the biggest kitchen I h
ave seen here in Madagascar (with few exceptions).

Here is my new address.
Sandra Horen
Lot 602 III
Ambohinambo, Talatamaty
Madagascar.

(the III is roman numeral 3, but it must be in the roman numeral format)
