Unbelievable. It is almost 3:00pm and we just received HYDRO!!!! It's been a rare thing these days. We've been using the generator when necessary but gasoline is expensive here (as I'm sure it is in Canada too) so we try to limit our use.
I just had a GREAT weekend. Ysmaille, Jenny and I went on a shopping trip and I managed to buy all the things I've wanted to buy for quite some time now. I went to gift shop and bought some neat things, then we went out for lunch at a fairly nice restaurant (it was nicer at one point but very run down now), then I bought Haitian sandals, paint and plants. The house we are staying in has a lot of metal pots that are very rusted, so I bought some yellow and blue paint for the pots and some plants to put in them.
Sunday was supposed to be a quiet day and we had no plans, but at church we discovered it was one of our friend's b-day and she didn't have any plans. So we threw together a quick birthday dinner for her.
I've been going with Jenny to two different Bible Studies which has been wonderful. Everyone takes turns hosting the Bible Study at their house on Monday night and tonight is our night. Should be fun, good thing Max is contained. The barriers are working very well and we often make jokes that anyone who doesn't want to help with the dishes will be thrown in the "pen" with Max:)
Thursday I fly to Miami to spend some time with Sarah. I'm really looking forward to it. Should be nice to buy some things that are hard to find here and/or expensive. Also nice to just relax and get away from everything for a few days. I was just telling Jenny the other night that things are finally starting to feel comfortable for me these days. Crazy that it took this long hey?? I guess it is a lot to adjust to in a short time.
