Packing, packing...
After one week I am leaving... But not from WA. From my home country, Estonia. We will return to Indonesia with my family. We came to Estonia to give birth to our little Melody and now the time has arrived to return to Indonesia.
It's interesting to return to Indonesia but in terms of blogging... I had already built up my routine and it quite worked already. Next few weeks will be difficult as we have to pack everything and then fly to Indonesia. First 2 weeks we will stay in Jakarta and then move forward to Sulawesi where we want to settle. We have to find a home to live and... I just pray there will also be the internet that I can use. Because you cannot do online business and WA stuff offline, can you?
To find time for blogging in the next couple of weeks will be a challenge that I face now. I know it will be hard but then... I welcome these chaotic weeks too. This is how life is and life is full of challenges. Challenges give a taste and an aroma to our lives. We become stronger and don't give up so easily.
Few weeks ago I started swimming in our local lake again. The problem is that weather got worse and worse. It's June and it should be summer but I still wear winter clothes hahahaaa. It's cold and rainy.
Our daily outside temp is 5 to 15 degrees of celcius (41 to 59 F) and water in the lake only 16 degrees (61F). Let me tell you, it's cold to swim in that kind of water. It's uncomfortable to jump in.
But I have learned to love it. In fact, the colder, the nicer. It makes my blood circulate faster, I am more alert and physically better prepared for my online tasks too.
But not only that. I have found that daily swimming in a cold water have made me mentally stronger. I don't give up so easily and I am more willing to go through hardships.
But now... Probably I am not able to be so active here in WA in those coming weeks. Also, I hope Google will not punish me too hard hahahaaa

You are going to be busy, darlin'! I love the idea of cold lake swims, and am glad you get to do it. Since I can't walk well, swimming is a great alternative.
Good luck with the move. Looking forward to your posts when you can.
Egon, you are going back to the place we first got to know one another. Hope you find a connection and keep in touch. Look forward to hearing from you when you get settled. I know you embrace challenge and always find a positive perspective to pass on. Keep safe, my friend. ^_~
Good for you. Have a save trip. You will miss the cold water though. I take cold showers (the colder, the better) since I was a kid. Nothing better after soaping with warm water.
And by the way, don't forget to sing out loud while enjoying the cold water. People wont hear the clatter of your teeth. :-)

Congratulations on the birth of your little Melody and lots of good wishes for your journey back to Indonesia. May you find a lovely place to live - with internet - and may you all remain healthy and happy.
Great to hear from you Egon.
Best wishes on the birth of Melody also.
Have a safe journey back to the warmer climes and I look forward to your next article which I am sure will be fun and interesting to read.
Cheers Russ Stewart
Smooth, if not so easy travels is what I wish for you! Family harmony for your travels, and safe passage!

Hello Egon!!!
You posted this in June, it is now early September. I am wondering how you are and hoping you are well.
I fell off the radar scope for a few months, brother-in-law fighting cancer, diagnosed in March 2014, my granddaughter coming home to me from a trial stay with an Aunt in New Orleans covered with physical evidence of her mental and emotional distress. I have been hunkered down caring for family. But I have never stopped desiring to be re-engaged with my learning in WA. And as i drop in now and again, I look for folks that I have hoped are still doing well.
Congratulations on the arrival of a new beloved child to love! I hope your trip and getting resettled has been uneventful and you are settling in AND you have internet access in your new region's home. I think of you and the great work you are doing for others and hope that you and your family are doing well.
Warmly yours in friendship,
Linda
Thank you Linda for your care and support. Life is not easy and we always have to fight, even for the time to build our online campaigns. You too have gone through difficult times and I just wish and pray everything may go well in your household as well as here in WA.
As for me these are the first days that I am involved in WA again. Just yesterday I posted my first blog post to my website since the end of June. Today I try to write to my WA blog.
But thank you again for your support and care. :)
