"Get Off My Case!!" lol...
well today started out as usual, my alarm goes off at 7 and i glare at it hoping that my death stare will change the time and that i was just having a nightmare. then i realize that i wasn't dreaming and that i had to get up. so i got up, ate breakfast, had devo, then we split up into 2 main groups. both went to the valley of angels. but in the valley one small group "super group" went and built a house for a lady who had one of the last TORCH houses w/o a floor in it. originally we were supposed to tear down her old one and rebuild a new one, but instead we just built her a brand new one right beside it that has a floor. we killed it today, we had a full bufftruck crew today and built the house in 4 hrs. it was quite amazing i must say. once again though the honduran food got to me which is really unusual but both tricky and i had to make use of mountain facilities lol...after the house was finished we headed back to the mission house on elroy. meanwhile the other group had done some shopping in the valley in the morning and then headed to the blind school (which erin mann just loves) you'll have to ask her about her experiences there lol. then we all got back for supper, then we had until 9 to pack for choluteca. which for me wasn't enough time apparently since i didn't know that i was going to have to pack my stuff up just to bring it right back. we had devo at 9 which was interesting...then we packed up the busses b/c we have to leave the mission house no later that 6 am...well this may be the last blog for a few days b/c of choluteca, i hope everyone is having a good time at home!
