Walk! Español! Rob! Azalea! OYB! 9.25.23
Came in #2 this week.
Ordered some white paint to make my tennis shoes look better.
OYB!
Español!
Walked 1.63 miles. Short because I went to help K get her truck jumped off and because I met up with Rob Martin at 11:00 AM.
Nine hills.
Beauty weather.
Rob and I have worked together for nearly twenty years. We enjoyed Mexican food and good conversation.
Went to the Post Office to get stamps for the newsletters. Renee did the copies for me before Rob got to the church. Amen.
Deposited checks. Thank you, Jesus.
Went to the mission to stuff the envelopes and put stamps on.
Watered and put more fungicide on my little pink magnolia. She’s had a tough beginning. Hope she hangs in there.
The apartments across the street are called “Lumen at Chamblee.” They just put the name up recently. I think most, if not all, of the exterior work is complete.
I picked the girls up at the bus. They helped me “feed” the mail boxes.
One more job marked complete before my trip.
Took them to the Buford Highway Farmers Market to eat.
I told Everly I was leaving for Guatemala on Friday. She just cried and cried. It’s not a surprise to her, she just doesn’t want me to leave.
Helped the kids at the mission. Pretty light crowd with easy homework. Let me help one of the girls more intently with her math. Lots of Spanish practice.
Listened to Don Cheto. Working with this podcast can be incredibly humbling. Some days I feel I’m really making progress. Others I’m just like, huh?
I take pictures of my One Year Bible when I’m on trips where weight is an issue. No use taking that heavy book when I can just refer to the images.
Usually by the end of the second day I can tell how everything is going to turn out. People normally do about the same amount of work every week. I’ll probably come in #2, but depends how much work I do during my trip.
