Home from Africa - pictures to come

I'm home!!! Pictures and stories are coming - though my computer was stolen (along with a bunch of other stuff) so my life is a bit discombobulated right now.

I took the opportunity to finally finish moving back into my room at 4 this morning when I just couldn't sleep anymore (don't feel too bad for me - I went to bed around 9). So now I feel like i'm ready to get back to normal life. What is normal? I'm not sure right now. I've moved home for the summer, I start a job with the city manager at West Valley City next week, I have Miss Utah in a month, and to be honest - after my experiences in Africa i'm rethinking a lot of things.
My perspective is forever changed. I'm excited to share my adventures with you...soon. :)

Until then, I need advice on computers (do I buy used or go ahead and upgrade) and I also need some help trying to replenish my pictures...I hadn't backed up my computer in years, so lets just say I'm quite sad about the loss. Africa can have my computer, I just want the stuff on it back. If you happen to have some pictures that you think I probably used to have and no longer do(or never had, but would probably like), let me know - we'll have a picture party and i'll come get them from you! :)

Anyways, I'm now going to go drink tap water in my bare feet while sitting on my wonderfully soft bed in a room that is cockroach, lizard and frog free.

Africa, I miss you! America, I love you!

  1. WOW Starlee! Sounds like quite an adventure - so sorry to hear about your computer and especially photos - what a nightmare! Sadly, I don't have much advice in that area (though I do love my macs). I'm sure my brother Russell would be happy to help if you need it! I can't wait to hear about Africa - good luck with all your upcoming endeavors - you are one amazing chica!
