I love blogging about all kinds of things ...  

Go to 'catagories' to have a look at some of my blogs on adoption, trauma, pain, disability and some of life's difficulties, where I write about finding hope from the pain and trauma, giving you encouragement and information to move on yourself and grow your own soul just a little bit more x

First work, then football!

Yesterday was so much fun in Uganda. We have a family with us and the young lad had his 12th birthday, so they had a giant football match between Suubi staff and visitors and the villagers. I'm not sure who won, but judging by the cheers it was close. Everyone we go wanted to play joined in. All the staff and even Betty who I told you about yesterday.

In the evening some young dancers entertained us once back at the hotel, which was great fun.
Today was a busy one with lots of the group doing different jobs. We have the new labour ward having a hygienic new tiled floor and a lick of paint. The new pharmacy is being prepared by replacing the tin roof and being painted. One of the team is building a stove for larger group cooking in the future. Another is repainting the beds, which the children absolutely loved sanding! Others are taking footage of everything for future fundraising. Today, I sorted through all the non medical donations .... Baby bits, school stationary and musical instruments, crafting for the ladies, sanitary towel items and underwear. We managed to bring a lot between us all.
​

Tomorrow is school day and hopefully I will also get to meet some crafting ladies. I say hopefully because late afternoon we had a big storm. It only lasted about 15 minutes but it tipped down and the mud roads can quickly become impassable. So, hopefully no rain tomorrow!
