My Clarke’s shoes offer pretty good cushion and support but arre not ideal for walking a lot, say 30 min to church. On my way this morning, I got a blister that rubber raw and started bleeding. This means not only was it painful, it was also visible. Folding my sock wasn’t enough and there weren’t any good leaves around to try to put between my sock and heel. I felt a little like MacGyver as I went through the measly contents of my purse: .5L water bottle, keys, prayer book (borrowed), and PC cards. The laminated PC Emergency Contact numbers was the best thing I could come up with. I stuffed it in my sock and was able to make it the rest of the way to and from church, though a little painfully. Around the school today, a tractor came and plowed the fields (the school grows beans). Guess it’s officially time to start planting.
As I serve in the Peace Corps, this will be my main means of communication with most people. I will update as often as possible but there may be long times between posts and then several posted at once. This likely means that I just found internet service. There will be typos as I will not waste preciouse internet time to correct them all. Like my other blog, I will date the entries when they occurred but the time-stamp will be 23:59, indicating that it was added after the date.
