For not having anything real to say...

I'm posting a lot.
Mostly this is just a list to make me feel better about the fact that the past 3 days has seen us very hermity.

Accomplished!:

1. Diocese Presence spreadsheet-complete with schools, staff, parishes, priests, health centers, staff (including breakdown by rank and occupation and salary! Horray me!), vehicles, buildings, estimated populations and language breakdowns.
2. Emailing Rex-a stretch but i'm including it because it was an email and a stalker like visit to his office. I've got most of the information on the different counties, payams and bomas along with some rough population estimates. Plus i want him to teach me to shoot a gun. (actually, on that note, I really just want to go to Rex Olum Summer Camp because he is probably the biggest badass I know and I want him to just take me all over Sudan and teach me all his special ops/body guard/ amature boxer/ ping pong champion/ management of development agency skills. He could kill someone with a glance. He is THAT COOL)
3. Completed the other SDAs for the first objective-which doesn't sound like a lot but includes every single action entailed in community outreach and mass media.
4. Started work on Objective two: the clean up. It needed a lot of work after the restrictive curveball the people from PSI threw at us (no IPTs provided for in the proposal means no treatment for pregnant women for malaria. dumb.)
5. Washed my sheets and Ed's old sheets (for George) BY HAND and carried the water all by myself and got in a very wet, messy fight with the soap bin that culminated in me being soaking wet and even hung them on the line, which interestingly enough, was the hardest part. AND i swept out the tents for Lucy and helped her set up the beds for the guests and found her two extra pillows-because I am amazing-because she wasn't feeling well. Bringing me to my next point-
6. Made Lucy Feel Better-gave her tylenol and gatorade and nursed her back to health.
7. Watched a Kurt Russel movie (Breakdown!) which was suitably thrilling.
8. Got a list of all CDoT's health units from Emmanual and Bishop Akio.
9. Sweated profusely
10. Emailed Ed probably about three times in one day-a record for me, far below normal for him (he sends about 8 per day)
11. Did about four situps before deciding the floor was too hard on my tailbone (George quit after three-ha!)

Plans!:

1. Exercise tomorrow morning. Legs! Wake up at 6:45 and go do lunges and jumping jacks and wall sitting things and a slew of other stuff that George and I came up with.
2. Track down Rex unless he emails me-entails another awkward visit to his office where I lurk around banging on people's doors until someone tells me he is out.
3. Write up all of the Objective 3 section of the proposal (home based fever management)
4. Learn to cook from Abby
5. Go to the market and buy a dress or some cloth or a skirt that moves when I walk
6. Movie night!
7. Force Jerome to teach me to drive on the roads
8. Make up George's new bed

thats all for now.

As a side story though: I scared the bejeezus out of Desire when I was filling up my water bucket to do laundry, and he emerged from his tent in THE world's tiniest towel to go shower. He saw me, yelped (in french!) and grabbed his crotch region and ran BACK to his tent. So i hid in the shower with my bucket of water until he cautiously emerged and ran to the other shower.

Oops.
