This blog is all about my journey living and working in Moshi, Tanzania. This process began before I moved to Moshi in July 2006 and continues as I have been living here six and a half years. I like to write blogs about the kids here at Treasures of Africa Children's Home and about life in Tanzania and the fun things about living in a different culture. The children have become a huge part of my life here. I have fallen in love with them and each day they bring something new and fun to life. God has truly blessed me.

Getting So Much Done

The last few weeks have gone by so fast. I haven't been at a location with internet access so I haven't been able to keep up with my journaling.
It took me about a week to get my classroom cleared out and cleaned up. After I finished up at school I started helping out at the Hidden With Christ office. Since everyone was leaving for Africa on July 4th, there was a lot to do without a lot of time...I was not able to leave on the 4th...My flight is scheduled for July 16th. When I wasn't working at the HWC office I was spending time with friends and saying good-bye.

After the girls left on July 4th I went to my mom's house to visit. I was able to stay five days. It was nice to spend time with my family. I relaxed and enjoyed the 105 degree heat...ahh, just like home in Africa. :)

I officially have one more week left before departure. I have a lot of lunches and dinners planned with friends. I have some last minute details to finish up. This week is it. Since I've already sent the majority of my belongings to Africa in the container, there isn't a big task left to complete...No huge item I need to purchase and figure out how to get it in a suitcase. I've already done so much of the work in the past four months. I wish I could say that I don't have anything left to do, but that is not so. But I am so thankful that so much is done and this last week is going to be a blessing...God is good that way!

You are leaving in 2 days! Are you going to be closer to me or further away? :)
It is raining here...everyday, all day, all night, sprinkling, raining. Not much to do but read your journals :) I do enjoy them. Will you have internet access in your new home?
