June 18th

Today is absolutely beautiful and I have the day off! I had a day off yesterday too! I was starting to get stressed so it is really great to have some time off to recharge my battery.

Two of our cleaners left yesterday which is pretty sad. They spent four weeks with us and became part of our family, and now they're going to who-knows-where. I've learned a lot from them, and I'll miss them.

By the way, I've been coffee free for about 3 weeks!!!!! It was definitely hard in the beginning. The english as a second language people got to learn new words like "grumpy" and "grouchy."

My friend Brittany is getting married today!!!!! Wahoo! Congrats Britt!

I think I am going to come home in January which means I will be here for 9 months instead of a year. There are many many reasons for this change of plans. First of all, my resident and work permits are only good until Jan. 1. There are also financial reasons and practical reasons. I'm going to talk to my managers about it within the next few days. I would really appreciate your prayers for me in this decision. I want to do God's will and not my will and sometimes I like to ignore God and push my own agenda and I really don't want that to happen. So yeah, prayers would me much appreciated.

I need to close here, the arm is still bad. Love you all!
