My Day

This was my day today:

• Hand washed my clothes in cold water……it seems someone has borrowed my washboard, so that job was harder than it needed to be
• Reminded my security to pump water from the well into the tanks that feed the house so there will be water in the taps for my guests arriving this weekend
• Walked to work escorted by one of my kids – this young man had a hernia operation a couple of weeks ago so we are spending the days together so I can keep an eye on him
• Made and shared the usual lunch of bread and luncheon meat for 20
• Put together most of the remaining information needed for the upcoming Transform Salone website
• Received a visit from the Granny of one of the sponsored students along with a gift of bananas and a cucumber. She looks upon me as her daughter and always, always brings me a little gift. She reminded me that her monthly bag of rice provided by her grandson’s sponsor is due soon
• Chatted with around 15 of the sponsored students, collecting information for the reports for their sponsors
• Gratefully accepted a lift home from my neighbour
• Ate porridge for tea
• Cheered along with the rest of the neighbourhood when the electricity came on, then rushed around like a loony putting everything on charge
• Sent my daily postcard to my husband (using the app STANNP – if you spend a lot of time away from home try it, it’s great!)

All that is left is to make a cup of camomile tea then head off to bed.

No sickness, death or drama – all in all not a bad day!
