We are absolutely melting here. We were absolutely dripping with sweat tonight at the missionary fellowship. They say it is unseasonably warm for this time of year. That is an understatement!
I had today off but no one was going to town so I couldn't get a ride. I just couldn't face the bus in this heat! I can't wait till I have my own vehicle! I took Jasmine for a walk up the hill and into the jungle. Coming back she collapsed in the shade, spread out, laid her head down and refused to move. I let her rest a few minutes and gave her water, but she still wouldn't get up. I tried pulling on her leash and I just drug her down the path!!! She is so pitiful. Finally I had to pick her up and carry her a ways. Then she was OK. She didn't mind her bath at all when we got back!
There is a visiting doctor from Canada here so I won't be the only one in clinic tomorrow. Praise the Lord!
I may go fishing with the boys this weekend. The motor still isn't fixed from the last time when we nearly sank the boat. I guess they'll be rowing out there! They say they are leaving really early, so we'll see how I feel about getting up early on Saturday.
I said goodbye to my friend Cara tonight. She is going back to the States tomorrow. It was very sad and I couldn't stop crying all through the prayer time. I thought that maybe no one would notice the tears with the sweat dripping down my face but I guess the red eyes and nose gave it away. I'm really going to miss her!
