2 weeks from today we'll be on the road. whew! back in the summer it seemed so far away. today it seems so very close. i can't believe how fast time has gone. i have so much to do here and at work before i can even think of going. as my mom used to say "God give me strength"! thankfully the time crunch is finally becoming real to my brain because i really work better under stress.
so.... this weekend is dedicated to rounding up my "stuff" to take. it won't take long if i just get down to it. at work it will be a different story. the stack of stuff seems insurmountable. that is where the stress is. hate to leave when it is not all done but this year i may have to leave some loose strings. oh well - like i said "God give me strength" and HE will and it will get done - i hope.
so - off to make my lists which i will promptly lose and have to redo.
stay warm this weekend and keep the mission team in your prayers as we prepare to go to NOLA and our 3rd mission trip.
love you all

This was the last day. We were really tired but felt so good about what we had accomplished
THE FURNACE!
Yup, this is how they heat their house
YOU CAN SEE HOW SMALL THE FURNACE IS
You can tell that this was underwater. I hope it works.
