I know that is a random title but that is how I´m feeling right now. We have a lot of different things going on. We have our first volunteer team here from Graham´s church. This was the best time for them to come visit him and they helped us fix some things up on the [...]

Sucre is a much larger town with more communication options [...]

Last week Trent asked me if it was Tuesday and I told him I thought it was Wednesday, but I wasn’t sure. We actually had to pull up the calendar to see what day it was. I was right, for the record, but that’s not important. What I’m trying is, this life we have now [...]
