Muscles
So last night was amazing everyone was so tired after dinner but we were waiting for the containers to come out of customs and they came out last night so at about 7:00 pm after riding in the back of a caged in truck with like 5 guys and 3 girls we made it to Fort Jaques to unload the containers of supplies that people have sent post earthquake and it was crazy!!!! We had 3 trucks that we had to unloade full of clothes, diapers, wipes, blankets, cribs, hygiene and pretty much everything you can imagine!! We had a huge assembly line of about 15 people throwing boxes I think my muscles are growing hahahahaha I'm going to come back so strong, I'll be a whole new girl just kidding! but I was really sore this morning. Didnt get back until ten last night and probably sweated all the sweat I have in me out of me so had a cold shower yes freezing cold and then went to bed and slept like a baby until 6:30 got up slowly and got ready. Today went to the main house got some kids, went and did some office work filing for the school sponsorship program, then it was neat the BBC radio station was on the balcony doing a live broadcast from GLA. Which was pretty cool he talked about adoption and interviewed Dixie the lady that runs the orphanage and then some volunteers and others. Late lunch mhmm spaghetti and hotdogs together and then went out to Fort Jaques again to organize the stuff we unloaded last night and wow the property is beautiful there cant wait to see it all finished they have two buildings up. It will be finished in about 3 years. Stayed there till 4 stopped at the market and Molly and Joyce two of the volunteers here that stay here for years at a time got us chocolate bars. Organized clothes cleaned soap that had leaked everywhere etc. Then headed back for dinner which was chicken mashed potatoes and then went to Bible Study and I got asked to play guitar so I playe dfor the service thank goodness I knew some of the songs to play. The pastor had to make me a guitar pick out of Dixie's credit card. So now im back at the house sitting around with the other volunteers. Good night!
