August 10

Today was similar to Monday and Tuesday, I went to work early, went to the school, interviewed and surveyed 7th graders, observed the No Apologies program, etc. When we got back to the office around 3pm we found out that the water had been off all day and the toilets were all smelly and they had to go buy jugs of water. Apparently there was some construction in the area and apparently that sort of thing just happens. Bev took me home and I hung out with Sarah (she is still home but feeling better). We ate dinner (Janet and David had gone to an all-Africa missions conference for the night) and watched the news (I was a little concerned about all that UK-US flight terrorism). I'm not home sick, but all afternoon I was just thinking about how I wanted to call home, so I interrupted mom's ADPi rush work and we got to talk for while. That was a nice treat for me! She also assured me she getting togther a nice bunch of stuff for Sydnee to bring me when she comes to meet me in Cape Town. Hopefully our flights won't be affected by the terrorists!
