Albert the Car Doctor
Yesterday was a big day. I went down to Nsoko to meet with Matt and Eric and I ended up losing the only keys we have for the car I was driving (which is a long story involving staff meetings, fishing, a Mozambican mechanic, wire, rocks, and a great new bass lure). After searching through piles of rocks and spending an hour or more trying to break into the car just to get our stuff out of it I was embarrassed and angry. I ended up staying overnight when I didn’t plan on it so I had no clothes, toothbrush, or other things that make spending the night more tolerable. I hitched a ride back to Manzini this morning with a long list of things to do. Marcia and I were just ready to head out the door when I heard water spraying. I said, “I think someone is washing our car.” Sure enough, Albert came unexpectedly and was outside washing the car which is awesome except we are trying to leave to do our long list. With a white medical coat and a smile on his face, Albert is serving away while we wait.
It sure will be nice to have a clean car. Thanks Albert 🙂
Glad you were blessed in an unexpected way today, Scott. I think there’s a sermon/blog post somewhere in one of those last lines…
“Albert is serving away while we wait.”
Hmmm…don’t know what yet. Just something about that stirs my spirit.
Scott,
Welcome to the “group”! It’s frustrating when we loose things; but it appears you got your attitude adjustment from Albert.
Blessings & hugs,

Glad you found an awesome bass lure. The backseat in that land cruiser look kinda tight
Breaking into a corolla….good times.
