When going for my walk to town, I bumped into 2 ladies that come from Harare, Zimbabwe. They are nursing here. I was quite chuffed when I found that I could remember how to exchange greetings with them in Shona. (That is as much as I can speak of the language)
Spent the rest of the day sorting and categorising the children's ministry stuff that I have received/inherited/brought with me. I now have a lovely supply of stationery - pencils, crayons, scissors, stencils etc - and an assortment of books.
The challenge is getting somewhere to store them. I am trying to get a carpenter to come and give me a quote for making a cupboard with shelves. These things have to be made or imported, as there are none for sale in the shops.
Tried to do a bit of lace work in the evening, but Clawd saw me pick up my cushion, with all the dangling bobbins and thread....

Hi Hazie,
ReplyDeleteShoo I get tired just reading about all your activities. Busy! You must have an abundant supply of energy.
Its Mothers Day in SA so happy mothers day to all who read on here. Hope all moms are thoroughly blessed today.
I'm willing to bet that Clawed will be the boss when the doggies come back :) - it seems he has taken over completely.
What a thought that you can't have a sleepover or a gathereing without red tape - but I suppose its best to take care of the kiddies.
Hope you are completely well soon Hazie. Look after yourself and take some rest now and again
