Mombasa remains quiet.
Nairobi was not. Yesterday the leader of the opposition came back from ten days in the USA and it took seven hours for his vehicle to get from the airport to town. There were huge crowds of supporters, heavy police presence with lots of tear gas and five people dead, at least, at the end of it all.
On Monday the Supreme Court must rule on the three petitions challenging the rerun of the presidential election. No matter what the ruling, half of the country will be upset. If the court finds the election was free and fair the opposition is likely to cause chaos. If the court finds the election needs to be done once again the opposition will be jubilant and the country will continue in limbo...meaning a place they have never been before and are not sure where it will lead them to.
Regarding my own troubles, I have been battling ants in my computer for two days!!! I didn't have time to take it into the shop until this morning where they promise me they cleaned them all out. I have no idea how they got in there. I never eat or drink at my office desk. I tried to kill them by putting the computer in the freezer over night and then blow drying it with my hair dryer. That worked for less than a day. St. Francis forgive me but I was desperate.
I have managed to find a turkey for Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday. I have invited about 20 people and am praying the electricity stays on so the oven works. If the happens I will be truly grateful!!!!
