I just wanted to make a quick update.. I am feeling better. I slept well and my housekeeper took wonderful care of me. I took some antibiotics that she got for me and I am doing much better.
Since Nancy and Carol are leaving this week, I decided to have a little sleepover back here at Fr. Simon's. It has been nice to socialize with them and catch up on what they've been up to.
Fr. took us out to celebrate his receiving his 3rd Visa for his last stint in the United States and it was very nice. We met more of his priest friends there as well. But, the best part was just the conversation we all had. He asked Nancy, Carol, and I what has struck us most since we've been here and we all shared, which was nice, but then he went on a long tangent that made me cry several times. I wish I could properly sum up his words, but, sadly I cannot. Long story short, I don't know why the Lord has called me here, especially since we haven't seen eye to eye in awhile (well, I guess I should say it was moreso me.. He still thinks I'm the bees knees..) But, I know I'm supposed to be here. He planned this trip and I'm here and although it's 500% different than any other mission I've been on, I know this is where I belong for now. I can't say anything else. I can't say that I'm supposed to be home next year and be an SEA. I can't say I'm to go back to school. I can't say that I'm supposed to get married. I can't say that I'll ever be back here again. I can't say anything but live for now. and right now, I am to 'love until it hurts' on the daily here in Biharamulo, Tanzania.
I wish you a good weekend. I can't believe it's July so soon. Miss you all.
PS-Since, I know you're reading.. I've talked about you so much today, Grandma, that Nancy and Carol know all about you. Thank you for your unending love and support.Cannot wait to see you. And Go Bucs!
