So this is way too much info...but I realized the other day that I've had diarrea more in the past year than I've ever had in my -entire- 24 years of existance. That's horrible.
Needless to say, I found myself sicker than a dog on Friday night...still not sure what caused the problem but I am definitely feeling better now...just tired and a little out of it but I am sure that will pass in the next couple of days.
I am mostly bummed that I didn't even get to enjoy my weekend...I wanted to weed my garden and wash clothes and take a trip to Progreso but instead I spent it sipping Gatorade on my couch. Boo. Thank goodness we now have amazing cable here (no seriously...Showtime, MTV, VH1, CNN!!!! (in ENGLISH!) ABC, CBS, USA, etc. etc.) and it only costs 15 bux a month! Yay Honduras. Haha.
Work is crazy busy as usual...we are still doing the health monitoring in all the communities which I help out with when I don't have another committment. I really enjoy myself when I do go, I love being out in the community and the women are always so thankful that we are giving vitamins and deparasiting pills to their kids. I think gringa = doctor to them so that is pretty funny to me. Last week this guy picked a coconut from a tree and chopped off the top so I could drink the water out of it....yummy!! :) I am also trying to get a youth group started at the high school...we had 2 informational meetings today and hopefully we will get a good turnout when we have the first actual meeting next week. Cross your fingers!!
I also seem to have inherited a cat. My neighbor left to study in Tela a few weeks ago and she left her cat with her mother-in-law but seeing as how people aren't really apt to taking care of animals, the cat found its way to my house and was crying outside my door, searching for food. Being the humanatarian that I am, I tossed him some scraps and he has since taken up residence on the plastic chair in my backyard. He is really cute, gray and white with some black stripes and green eyes...and now named Joaquin. He likes to lay on my stomach when I am in the hammock. :)
Only 3 weeks until my Mom and Jeffrey get here!!

Yep... way too much info :-).. but happy you are feeling better...I hope we get to weigh babies when I come... keep dancing in the rain sweetie... hugs for you.
Even though I am not so religious about reading your blog as I used to be, I still catch up and read back blogs whenever I think about it! Your story about the man and his wife made me cry, that is so sweet! And you taking stitches out? I don't even think that Momma could do that! Big Hugs for you and your town, can't wait to see you again! Besos....
HA! The cat is now yours!
