DAY 94

Holy cow. I’m in Addis Ababa! This next stop on the adventure list is going to be fun, but tough. I’m very exhausted this morning. Yesterday started at 7:30 when I said my goodbyes to the family. From there it was on to the Arusha airport. I love these small little airports where you get […]

DAY 93

In about 24 hours I will be landing in Addis Ababa and starting my first day with Water For Good. This next day is going to be very tiring, I’m really hoping I’ll be able to sleep on my flights. Yesterday was bittersweet. I’m very excited to be on the move again and starting something

DAY 92

Yesterday was a long one! Per usual, the morning bus route to collect the kiddos. Surprisingly, it went smooth. No getting stuck—except for a brief scare that we got out of quickly—and we got to school on time. When we arrived parade was in progress. Ezekia and I had music class yesterday for most of

DAY 91

Time is starting to fly. Just yesterday I was thinking I’ll be gone in a week, but that yesterday was 5 days ago and the week is now only 2 days. I don’t know what happened. Yesterday I think I was hit with a bit of karma. The previous day I had been giggling at

DAY 90

I had really missed being at school. It’s not that I was getting bored at home over break, I used my holiday productively and kept busy, it’s just that school is so unpredictable and keeps me on my toes. Yesterday morning on the route we had to go save two bus loads of kids. The

Yesterday was great and then bad. Although school was still on holiday (which ends today), teachers got to go enjoy a nice day at campus. Due to staying up late the previous night, my sleep was poor and I woke up feeling pretty crappy. Thankfully I didn’t have much to attend to and was able

DAY 88

Yesterday was super slow right up until when I should have been getting ready for bed, then we went out. My early morning was spent doing a few chores. I woke up to some beautiful weather and decided that I had to take advantage of it. I did what little laundry I had. Next on

DAY 87

Yesterday was a nice Easter. No egg hunts, no candy baskets, just church and a lazy day. The morning started early early, and I was not expecting it. I was woken up at 6:00 a.m. and told to get ready for church. I had to drive us; the four sisters going along with me don’t

DAY 86

Yesterday was fun-filled and exciting. As a kid I used to love holidays from school, but now that I’m older I seem to be getting bored with nothing to do. It was a well timed adventure with Ezekia I had yesterday, I was getting very bored only going out for an hour or two and

DAY 85

Yesterday was another lazy-ish day. In the morning I was able to get some chores done. I’ve been having a little bit of a bug problem in the room recently, so I made sure to clean every nook and cranny. I was worried to find a bunch of rat droppings, but I guess I knew
