This is an update on our general well being.- It has been very cold as of late. So imagine us layering on 4 shirts a sweater and a jacket with 2 pairs of socks and our rain boots, tights on under our skirts and I (taylor) put on every slip I brought. [this picture was taken before the freeze]
Today it has cleared up and the weather is wonderful. Our ministry has been intense from the get-go. We have been left with at least 12 bible studies to take care of. So every morning with our coffee we plan out our day with info sheets and maps of who we are going to see. We walk about 3 miles a day in the ministry. I think I may have started a Bible study of my own. I am supposed to call her tomorrow but my $30 bolivia cell phone broke so that is quite a bummer.
Which brings us to the next subject: Taylor and Kyrias constant fight for Internet. The Bolivian Internet and us are not amigos. It runs out on us constantly or just decides to not recognize its own existence. The poor bible study who has a fixing phone shop sees us 3x a week.
Health: We both are acclimating quite well to 3rd world life except for a few things- 1) lack of being able to eat fruits and veggies easily 2) the initial shock of being here. Symptoms: hight level of emotion, stomach problems
3)seeing sickly dogs running around everywhere! Kills Taylor a little everytime.
4) forgetting to NOT rinse your toothbrush under the faucet
5) a strange rash on Taylor's leg that we hope with a little TLC and antibiotic ointment it will be cured.
keep the posts coming, Uncle Stan and I are always looking for them. Excited for you both. Take Care.
