Today I went to pretoria to get my electric fence fixed.
In order to fix the disconnected wire he used a farret and a crimping tool with a bit of extra wiring. Quite simple. Will know for next time.

Think back to the last time that you had a stuffed nose. I'll bet you didn't enjoy it. Luckily you knew how to blow your nose. If that didn't work, you put in nasal drops.
Babies aren't so lucky. They haven't developed those skills yet. They can't blow their nose, nor can they put in their own nasal drops.
A baby with a stuffed nose is very uncomfortable. Its hard to breath, sleep, and worst of all, hard to eat.
We love them, so we clear their noses. We put in drops, we put in tissues, we try all sorts of gimmicks. All to make them feel better, and feel better they do.
Clearing their noses, however, is a mission. If I forced drops down your nose, you would be greatly annoyed. If I forced tissues up your nose, you would jerk your head to and fro. They wiggle, they jerk, they do everything in their power to avoid the intrusion. They SEEM comfortable in their discomfort. They SEEM to not want a clean clear nose. Don't listen. They do. They love it ... after the fact.
The Jewish people didn't want to leave Egypt. They were comfortable in their discomfort. They SEEMED to want their slavery. G-D didn't listen, and we liked it ... after the fact. We we're taken out of comfort zone, and we liked it ... after the fact.
Go do something that you find awkward. You may love it ... after the fact. Get uncomfortable. You may love it ... after the fact.

It was a truly awesome event. There were about 1000 people there. It was unbelievable to see the unity in the Jewish community. Everyone gathered together regardless of denomination. Beautiful.

Two weeks have gone by already. The baby is getting used to breast feeding. Mother and baby are well acquainted. The baby loves to chomp and guzzle down milk.
A sure sign of a mother is the white dribble that stains the back of her shirt.
After eating too quickly the baby throws up some of its food. The reason why the baby throws up the food is because it has eaten too quickly.
"Baby, if you paced yourself you would have kept more of the milk. Baby, had you paced yourself you would have preserved more sustenance."
When lots of milk is coming your way, don't be greedy. Slow down. Take it in slowly. When you take it in slowly it will than be digestible. If you get too greedy you will throw it all up.
Our economic state is a result of chomping down copious amounts of milk. Quantities of milk we couldn't handle, we are now vomiting it out. [A good video explaining that very clearly http://is.gd/kb3X/the-crisis-of-credit-visualized I recommend you watch it]
Think: The farmer who killed the goose with the golden eggs.
When milk is coming your way, slow down to digest. When money is coming your way, slow down to digest. Otherwise you will find yourself vomiting it out.
