"I'm sitting in the auto shop right now, eating Pez and occasionally glancing at the news on T.V. of war, I guess I will put that out of my mind for a while. We are on the Lord's Errand and we don't have time to worry!
"Guess what? We are on bikes! Yes, I am now a Bike Sister. That's sort of cool - fun to talk about, NOT so cool to do. My butt, thighs, heart and lungs . . . yeah, I'm not doin' so well with that one! But it's kind of fun around the neighborhood! *picture of bike* My bike's name is Boswell. He has lights and everything. He's a nice bike and has buttshocks (but not enough), and he's a "Giant." Also, I do not have to buy it, so he'll stay here when I go home. WEIRD.
"Oh, so the car deal. . . we share it with another companionship. (yes, on our day we are stuck getting the runaround at the mechanic. The work is going good, I mean we are ALWAYS busy. . . so much to do. And we've been teaching a lot of first discussions, though very few progress further - but we keep praying a TON.
"I can not beliece this is my last tranfser. Time's going by so fast, I want to grab on to something for balance! Nearing the end is scary, I see so much I wish I'd done better and so much left to do out here. . . and then there's the whole being scared of REAL life thing. (Although , the net I think I will adjust to having again quite quickly.)
"I've got to make my lesson plan for English class. My Pakistanis are going to learn directions & city words. I may also read stories with them and give a spelling test. We'll see. I am not a professional here! Geez!
"The church is true, the book is blue.
Love, Sistah Mayberry"
