A month at post

One month at post and I'm still going strong. Well, my stomach is being weird but I'm great. :)

My current projects: money and coffee. I thought I would escape the world of Excel going halfway around the world, but it found me again. I'm working with a microfinance institution in attracting new members and automating everything. Thankfully, I know how to navigate Excel pretty well so even if it's in French I understand. As for the coffee part, that won't happen until December when the current volunteer leaves, but I'm looking forward to it. She's doing a great job with them and I'm eager to start working. We're both tea fanatics so it's difficult to test quality, but I bet I can start enjoying a cup or two every once in a while. :)

Everything else is going great. I know some of you have tried calling but can't get through. Our families are having a very difficult time as well. :(

I hope everyone is doing great. Please write. I'll do my best to get hooked up to high speed internet once a month to reply. Oh, keep the packages coming. A GRAND MERCI to those who have sent their best wishes.

We miss you!!!!
