Howdy: How can it be Wed. already? Monday and Tuesday were good days...filled with a myriad of tasks: picking up friends at the airport; emergency trip to VOH to deliver much needed chalk (of all things); introduding friends to Lazarus project in Haiti; clearing the big rocks from in front of Jean;s car repair ramp; picking up Cathy Jones and two of Marie's visitors in the pouring rain at the airport; visit to the bank and then Food for the Poor and on and on...just regular business days. Today I visited the school again and met with Clovis.

He was quite pleased with how the registration went Sat and Sun. His observation is that he has more students seemingly prepared to come to school. He thinks the reorganization allowed for a more relaxed and restfull atmosphere for the kids (and parents) and due to less stress performed better. We discussed a number of issues and then I went to check out the construction site to check on the clearing of the shrubs and bushes by the gardening crew. Their machete's were already falling apart so that had to be attended to, but despite it all they were making good progress.

When I got back Cathy was busy baking up goodies for the team coming and then she attacked my file drawers for me, putting things in order (yahoo!!).

And now the day has drawn to a close (or just about) and its time to go and think about what' s for dinner.

Tomorrow is another day to look forward to..wishing you all a restfull night
