It's a BLOG!

Hello... This is for all those people out there who have been asking for a Blog update.

I am just writting a random stream of information and hope you all can make sense of it.  pardon the grammer and spell errors!

So my life in village is coming along- Big NEWS
I went to church last Sunday and plan to go back again tomorrow! I made friends with two sisters in their 20's who go every week.  They are wonderful and even helped me do my laundry on Thursday.  Handwashing is not so much fun... But I do enjoy removing corn kernals from the cob so while Hellena was washing my clothing I took over on corn duty. 

I have a garden- with okra, sweet potatoe greens, tomatoes, cassava, papya and spinich (the chickens ate that thou) plan on replanting this week not that I have a good fence.

I just got a huge package from my family and am super thankfull for everything in the giant box!  The bucket with water nozzel is awesome and the beef jerkey was gone in 10min.  I cant wait to use the chocolate-peanut butter spread on chapati (local flat bread) - I may save this for my b-day ; )

The other box - "The Johnston box" got charged custom fees... Not sure how I'm going to get around it but a friend said he would help next week- so for now the markers and silly bands will sit at the post office.

It makes me so happy to know that so may people care to hear how I'm doing... and want me to write! 

I will be back next weekend to write!

GO YANKEES!
