Happy go lucky

Despite a rather severe cold, I’ve had lots of fun the past 2 weeks. I spent a weekend in Lilongwe to welcome new volunteers to the Peace Corps community. Somehow, that included staying out until 2 am Friday AND Saturday dancing. I certainly do love to dance and hate passing up the opportunity.

We went back to school but I’m only taking 8 periods a week so I have more flexibility to work on other projects such as a library for the primary school. You can read more here (parkwantstobuildalibrary.blogspot.com). I’ve been thoroughly overwhelmed with how much support people have given towards this project. Now I’m busy trying to put it into action.

I hosted the second bi-monthly yoga weekend. We made chicken calzones, potato chowder, chicken pot pie, and cinnamon rolls. Oh, and homemade English muffins. A friend said he thought he gained weight over the weekend which I’m taking as a compliment. We did some yoga, including animal yoga! It was great fun, down to the pedicure party.

Now I’m making a quick trip to Lilongwe to pick up some cough drops and cough suppressant. I also will bring back a friend, Courtney, to visit before she heads home to the States.

My life is beautiful.
