One Big Blur

This past week is a blur--a cluttered collection of days and happenings that will at least fill up this blog entry. A busted window in Shelly's van by careless boys throwing rocks. The lecture that followed the broken window. A game of pictionary with the kids. An afternoon at the Internet cafe. Dinner with Duke Divinity Friends. A call from home. Attacking the kids with kisses. A couple of hours separating beans. A lesson in Luganda. Napping at Shiloh. Teaching the teenage girls about the life of Eve.Going to the Dry cleaners for my dirt stained linen skirt. Playing cards with Shelly to pass the time. Losing at cards. Playing netball with the boys. Attending staff meeting. Going to a Muslim funeral for a beloved grandmother in Lukwanga. Cutting my finger nails to the quick. Washing my clothes by hand. Attending another staff meeting. Riding a boda boda to church. Eating M&Ms. Holding Isaac and chasing him around the compound. Trying to teach Freddles to dance the Tush Push. Bathing from a basin. Seeing Indiana Jones during its opening weekend. Drinking African tea. Sweating. Walking the kids up the hill to cross the street. Loving Uganda.

Well, I'm off to buy juice and bananas for breakfast.

This is Alisha on Location.
