This week, I got two beautiful letters from good friends. A long letter is nourishment for my soul.
This week, I shelled peanuts to make peanut butter. The orphanage makes their own because it's cheaper. Fun times!
This week, Shannon and I killed a giant spider with Clorox and a baseball bat. I'll admit that killing a spider with a bat is very cathartic.
This week, Shannon and I attempted to learn how to drive a moto... To no avail. More updates on that soon.
This week I taught a short English class at the orphanage! I love those kids.
This week I had several legitimate conversations in Kreyol.
I should really write more things down because I basically forget things the moment after they happen.
So while my students were taking a quiz, I took my shoes off to sneak up on a cheater. It worked, and my class DIED of laughter when they realized what I had done. My class loves me, and I LOVE my class!
All in all, it was a good week!
And I'm happy to announce that you can now make a monthly donation using the "Donate" button on my blog. Anything you can do would be very welcome!
Love to you, wherever in the world you may find yourself!
So, I just got back from Women's Retreat, and when I was unpacking I found a huge cockroach like bug in the bottom of my bag. The murder wasn't quite as epic as your spider story, but I still freaked out.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love the fact that you took off your shoes to catch a cheater. :) Maybe I'll use that sometime. lol
