Saturday/Sunday/Monday

Saturday:
We took the Hope House girls to a water park down here, which was a lot of fun. It was nice to just have a fun day. Especially WITH the girls. They seem to really like us for some reason.
I did find out, though, that one of the girls in The Promise House (Nancy), was raped by her pastor. Apparently she has 5 or 6 sisters, and one of them also got pregnant by him, but she was old enough to move out. But Nancy's mom took the pastor's side and she got sent to The Promise House and her younger sister was sent to The Hope House. Now this really got to me because Nancy is one of our best when it comes to wanting to know about God. Again, I'm hit with: If I were in that situation... But, I guess that's why I'm not.

Sunday:
We were supposed to have a church picnic but it got cancelled due to rain. (It's been raining nonstop since we got here.) So we had a little pizza party at The Hope House with the PH girls too.

Monday:
We went to CIPI in the morning, but I was just miserable. My head hurt and my stomach hurt, and I was just feeling really nauseous. We did get to make a fun poster to put up in the library with a verse on it. (There's a picture on Facebook of that.) Anyway, after lunch Katie and I went to the nursery to see the new babies, but while we were in there Johanna (who we spend the day with) came in and said our coordinator (who's in town) was in the library looking for us. Long story short, they ended up taking me home early because I felt so bad. I slept for three hours. The guy who owns the house we live in had some parasite medicine he gave me, so hopefully that will help.

This morning has been a little rough. There's a new group and they don't seem to understand that our room is right next to the stairs, and when you yell at 6:30 in the morning it tends to wake us up. Also, one of them came in at 12:30 last night and shined a flashlight across our room? So I'm not on very good terms with them right now... But, I'm also sick and very grumpy, so maybe yall should just pray extra hard for me this week.

I've gotta go, although there's more to talk about this coming week (our last week), because the housekeeper is trying to speak to me in Spanish and I need to focus so I can answer her with something other than "I don't know".
