Wednesday, May 9th

Well, we leave in 2 days! I am determined to not let Satan try to foil our plans for a clean get away, though I have to laugh at some of the things that have come up that have distracted me from packing i.e. going through 2005 taxes for instance. Ugh!

Anyhow, things are moving along. Tommy Ann says that she's being a mother hen, but she has made sure that she has accounted for all her chicks and knows how they are all getting to the airport. It's going to be a very early morning for us. The bus from OSBC leaves at 4 a.m. Not very civil, is it? I'm sure that the excitement will do better than caffeine in getting us going.

I decided to add a few songs to the songsheet that Liesl had so competently typed out for the last mission trip. I'm afraid that people are going to think that we worship idols because as I read through what I typed I found, 'oru God'. I'm not sure who he is. And then some place else there was 'Praise to the Gie of good things,' so you see it's not just one strange god, but at least two! I think it's time for bed as my typing has deteriorated significantly.

Well, I made progress today. I'm not all packed, but my pink flip-flops are packed. I hear that they are a must for the shower.
