9 Jan. 2010 Really don't have much to say....


This is because I know and love you compulsive checkers who I know check once or more a day to see if I've written a new blog. So those of you who want to read something inspired or deep can stop reading now.

The rest of you-please ask me a question or give me a topic you'd like to hear about because I'm not feeling very creative. But in just over 2 weeks the folks will be coming with a team which always gives me something to write about and folks to take pictures of.
Projects folks are working on: House of Hope kitchen, mowing lawn, teaching English, de-cluttering the house, planting Moringa tree seeds, laundry, cooking, dishes, E-mails, blogs, taking pictures, reading to children, thinking about the team, buying stuff on E-bay, correcting school work,preparing for the teams, researching the possibility of doing the kid's standardized testing at home........


Today was sunny and warm after a days of being in the low 70's. We're finishing up WWII in history. The star fruits are starting to ripen. The roses are going wild. The red fuzzy things I don't remember the real name but we call the monkey tail's.

A parrot just flew over the house calling to his friends. We have radio's going because we're on government power. We have had almost 24 hour power for the last 10 days or so. No one knows why the change. One idea is some one new is in charge. Another theory is that they are using a different kind of fuel that has no street value so isn't being stolen or sold on the side.

Now the question is what will the electrical bill look like when it comes. No one has meters and it wasn't a big deal when we only got a few hours here and there sporadically. ????

It is good to hear from you everyday even if you think that you have nothing to say.
What may seem like not much to tell, actually is very informative and exciting to read.
Maybe if I said that we had power for the last 24 hours, people around here would say, "So?" But if I said that we had a parrot fly over our house, the same people would say, "Really?"
I would love to hear more stories about how God is using you to spread the gospel to the world.
Because that is what you are accomplishing every day. ;-)

Thanks Peter-I'll try to keep up the blogs even if deep thoughts are lacking.

Bronkemas- not quit yet. He is on the last chapter of this years science and I told him I didn't think we could keep track of both. But in the next couple weeks we should be done then he can start cutting.
