- End of school year / beginning of "let's keep the kid busy and make ourselves crazy in the process" (sign up for camp, get a schedule, pay the money, and expect it to happen...? Not in Africa!).
- A long-awaited camping trip! Which totally rocked except for the fact that the roads on the map really shouldn't be on the map if that's what they are calling a road (a future post). This resulted in a very long drive home.
- The Great Sandbox Debacle (I'm not ready to talk about it).
- Piloting of the training I've developed on temporary contract with a locally-located WHO office (develop materials, enlist participants, and carry out the training...? Not in Africa!).
- Andrew's scheduled travel to a conference, it's on - off - on - off - on! (and so is his work on the paper he is to present).
- The CATS, which we are kitten-sitting, adorable as they are, with their kitty boxes and their kitty claws and their penchant for climbing, disrupting the normally (un)productive evening working hours.
- Three people, sick for two weeks.
- The child, who loves the cats so much, that she barely lets the poor things' feet touch the ground.
This weekend I am looking forward to actually running, paying some attention to my kid, and, best of all, picking up some of "our people" from the airport!
