Happy Independence Day Americans! Me? I’m in town waiting for the power to come on so I can do some printing…and ironing before I head back to the village. I feel bad I haven’t posted this week. You’re probably thinking I’m toughing it out in the village- when really I’ve been flat out with visitors and work in town. In fact- I’m not sure I’m going to able to do the whole 2 months in the village. Yes, a lot of my work is w a y out of town (usually between 1 and 3 hrs drive)- so I’m actually closer living in the village. But training days still entail 6am starts and late afternoon/evening returns. Plus there’s the report writing and proposal writing that I can’t do in the village (no power). Just living is exhausting- not to mention trying to operate in another language. Then throw meetings and visitors into the mix (in town) and I’m thinking- I’m not super woman- something’s gotta give.
So I’m heading back out to the village today to give it one more shot. As much as I love it there’s no point if I’m never there… so I’ll see (now that the ‘newness’ has worn off) if I can shortcut some chores, get a rhythm and spend enough non-brain-dead time in the village to make it worth while.
I just called the power provider and the powers not due back on til lunch time. Grrr’. Sorry no posting. Gotta go.
