So I have lost my Wing Man

Yesterday when I was gong to my dance class here in San Nicholas I made a critical error. It was a wet day and one of the guys at the hogar needed a car to run to his jobs around town. As a result we were short a car anyways because we took the other car to the body shop earlier in the morning. I suggested I just take a taxi to my class because it was just a 20 or 25 blocks down the road. Yesterday was the first day of rain so a taxi seemed like the best idea. But apparently everyone else had the same idea to ride a taxi that day. SO the time table to get a taxi was late. So I was sitting in the kitchen playing words with friends waiting for the taxi to show up 25 minutes after we had called for one. VERY BUSY DAY. When he showed up I grabbed my backpack and hopped into the taxi. I told the driver where I needed to go and we were off. 2 or 3 minutes into the trip I felt like I was missing something. Where is my Iphone. In the rush I must have left in on the counter, no problem. but to be safe I did my standard, back pocket front pocket sweatshirt pad down. Empty empty empty. Only my wallets was to be found. After I had made it to my location I had decided the phone was at home. Which later on I would find out it was not. So I grabbed my back pack hopped out of the taxi and went to my class.

Needless to say here I am sending messages through words with friends hoping someone with a heart returns the phone. I put a little reward message on words with friends because that is the only way I can communicate with my phone because it is on airplane mode to save battery and reduce my text message and call load. Now I wish I hadn't have done that because my only option is words with friends. I don't like this feeling of being off the grid. I was feeling comfortable and now I don't feel as comfortable. I really don't know what I am supposed to be learning out of this lesson but i'm super bummed to be missing my 9 or 10 bible studies from my long bus trip and quick days in salta. Oh and I lost all my photo's from tren a las nubes. Kinda bumming about that one too. now I gotta get some pictures from someone else I met on the train.

all in all

I had another dance class today, bible study with the kids tonight, dance class tomorrow, and a feeling of limbo. It's odd to have a feeling of security from a phone but I really feel like I've lost a part of the plan without my phone. maybe it's cuz I leave for BA in 2 days but i don't feel as comfortable. I don't like it. I could always find north and south with my phone now it's like the town is flip 180 and I didn't even know. IT's a strange feeling because the book I was reading in salta was about what I was anchoring to weather a storm. How small is this gust of wind from loosing my phone but it feels like Katrina. Not in a literal sense but more in the comfort of it all. I know who I'm anchoring my salvation too. It's just here on this earth what is keeping north north and south south.

Sadly it took loosing a phone to realize God does. Some how this all works out, it's just expensive. some how God protects me in my travels and in my health and the keys to my heart. I will explain the keys to my heart tomorrow because it just brewed that up as I was righting this. Don't really know what it means yet. Either way I"m home on the 16th.
