Well Hello Friends! I know it has been forever, and I am sorry it has taken me so long to get back in touch with the living. There has been a work and witness team here from Pennsylvania and I did a lot with them these past two weeks. It was fun to have other Americans to talk to and just to get to know someone and make friendships like normal life back in the states. It just felt good you know. But I took them around lushnje and helped translate the best I could with different things. This team coming was actually a really good thing cause it forced me to use the little albanian I have learned. But if you know me, the only way I learn is to put me on the spot and I have to do it no matter what. Well I had a lot of those times, and because of it I really have seen a lot of improvment. Woo hoo, thank goodness. I mean I still cant communicate really, but a least I am getting a sort of gist of things. Thats good enough for me. Well this morning was probably the most relaxing saturday morn...

This past week has been going, going, gone. I jumped right back into my daily schedule: I wake up at 6, have devotions and a peaceful breakfast. Catch a fergone (van) at 8, and arrive at the kindergarten by 8:30. Then leave the kids around 12 and head back to lushnje around 12:30, and have lunch around 1. Then I have a hour and a half to two hours to rest. Then meet elke around 2:30 or 3. We walk, we pray, meet with people from the church, and just go over future plans for our ministry. I usally leave her house or coffee shop around 5 and begin my trek back home to my apartment. From 5:15- 6 I do little chores, TRY to clean my room, pick up whatever I might have left out from the rush in the morning or just do something productive. At 6 I eat dinner, then me and jess usually watch a movie and are done by 8. Then I am on the internet till 9, and read a book untill 10 (or untill I cant keep my eyes open any more, remember I got up at 6!) . I force myself to wash my face and brush my teet...
