really almost 4 months??

thanks for all who prayed me through my mold allergy sickness. i had a cold but it is gone now. things are well here. i started accounting formations on wednesday mornings and i have giving english tutoring lessons on tuesday afternoons. next week i will start attending meetings for a savings and loan group. originally i thought i would be starting the group but when i arrived a couple weeks ago i realized that they had already started but wanted me to oversee and help them fix problems they were having. it was a little embarressing because they let me give a speech as to what a savings and loan group was and how to start one. i think it was a thing of respect or language barrier since someone was translating for me or both. anyways, i am trying to make contacts and work on ideas for secondary projects. i am trying to do consulting with one or two artisans a week as to marketing or accounting or other things. also i have taken up sewing and finding interesting ways to recycle my trash. please pray for me to find somewhere to hold computer formations; there are no computers but everyone wants to learn. i am not sure if they would actually use the cyber cafes but i will probably do a survey as to their motives the first week when i actually find computers to use.

ps there is a japonese volunteer that works with disabled kids who is volunteering through the japonese version of pc: it is fun hanging out and talking with her in french
