I'm still here!

why hello there. yea i didn't space the blog i just didn't put it first on my to-do list. whoops. but no worries i am posting right now so its better late than never. but it is currently 1 in the morning here and i am on ym computer ... alone... at one in the morning. normal right? but the internet is crazy slow lately, zoo its essentially my only time to actually get good connection. hmm this week about 40 new people came to holmsted( the place I'm staying at ) which is insane. and they are all from everyone across the globe from new zealand, ice land, italy, france,colorado, holland, wales,ireland,scotland, argentina,egypt,colorado. but if you didn't catch the little Colorado piece, there are 3 count it 3 people form Colorado including myself. i mean the deserves some kind of award right? this week after saying "i love kids" i got tied into being a nanny this weeks. i baby at this adorable kid logan for 8!!! hours each days. NBD. i want to take a nap with him every day. oh yea i started at 8 in the morning. and you see I'm up at 1 and getting up at 8 not so fun for me. but i found out that he has a tube in his ear which he can hear out of but whatever he hears is how he speaks so his speech is somewhat off. i love this kid.  but while i was babysitting i decided i would play hide and go seek so he was it and everyone ran off and i decided to hide near the building and i wound up in a patch of stinging nettles... if you don't know what that is. it is a plant that when you brush up against it, it essentially stings you and you get marks and it hurts horribly for about 10 minutes and then its done. yea that wasn't fun. i was found first too. also, today i was in the kitchen for about two hours ( after babysitting) washing and drying dishes and thennnn went into the 'legit' kitchen to make food for our high tea. (delicious!!) it got crazy in there. people were crying left and right and yelling was happening carazyyyyyy.  i have learned the new rules of UNO. now called extreme uno. never will go back to regular uno again. i have stayed up with a group of 3 others playing extreme uno til about 2 in the morning when our tea has officially lost its affect on us. its great. SO yea i leave on saturday for Uganda. wow! i cannot even fathom the idea of this actually being me that is doing this. but i take off at 945pm on saturday and I'm not sure when i arrive on sunday but yes please keep me in your prayers for safe travels. and then DTS ( discipleship training school) starts monday morning, bright and early 6am which is 4am london time which is 9pm denver time. crazy talk. i can do this! one thing i don't think i will be able to master is the "squattie potties" yup pretty much what they sound like. ( slum dog millionaire scene) its gonna be interesting. but i will get the opportunity to tone my thighs! score!!!! but yes i think it is time for me to hit the sack. until next time.
mweraba( goodbye in luganda) oh yea i just googled that don't be impressed :) I'm out.
