Tracy is tired tonight so she has entrusted me with the great honor of posting to the blog.
Unfortunately due to an allergic reaction to the fire ant venom I spent the morning in bed and thus missed out on anything that went on in the morning. I can say that our homeowner (who brought us cookies yesterday), brought over sandwich fixings for our lunch today!
The drywall is going up very quickly, and over half the house is done! It's awesome how quickly it all went up. Not to mention all the little things like the trim being painted all over the outside of the house, which resulted in Dan being up on a very very tall ladder for a large chunk of the day.
We had a story time with Craig, our work leader, in which he told us about the things he'd done before he started working with Hope Force. He was part of the first group of people to go into China in the early 90's and start up the process of adoption for abandoned baby girls. It was very interesting to hear him tell the story of being in China and being able to talk to all sorts of people in order to get something done for these girls. We have met a lot of very compassionate people like him while we've been down here. It's nice.
Dinner was nachos and fajitas, which were of course delicious. I'm going to be really sad to go home and not be able to enjoy all this delicious food! (The pancakes for breakfast this morning were particularly excellent. I highly recommend them.)
Anyway, it's late and thus time for bed! I can't believe tomorrow is Thursday already!
Sincerely,
Megan (the one that ticked off the fire ants... oops)
