I haven't written in a couple of days. I've been pretty busy with the shopping (the job), volunteering, and get stuff done around the house. I went to the World Vision experience: Step Into Africa (that I blogged about a month ago). I volunteered at that for 4 1/2 hours. It was a great experience. For anyone who has been or who is going, the child's experience that I walked through was Babirye from Uganda. There are 4 different children's stories, so if you want to see it all, you really have to walk through 4 different times. Each experience lasts about 20 minutes. After I did my walk through, the volunteer shift began. I was placed in the Health clinic. Everyone that goes through the experience winds up in the health clinic to find out if they are HIV+ or HIV-. As people would come up, I had to stamp their hand with a big red plus sign or a black negative sign. It was interesting. It was sad. We are so blessed. If you get a chance to go, they are on tour now (going all over the country).
Today my mom came by to help me with a project that the girls are putting together for mother's day (for all of the grandmothers). We did that project, and a whole bunch more. We got so much done!!! By the time she left, I was EXHAUSTED!! I think I'll turn in early tonight. Good night!
