First off I'd like to apologize for the post lumping. Again, no Internet, but we should be getting it on Friday. There have been a lot of mood swings in this first week, and I'm all posting it at once.
Today was an amazing day. We had our first day of Physical Service. That means we go out and do something. I went with a team of five people to a place called New Generations; it's a home for women who are pregnant or have young children. Women stay there for a few months up to a year and eat together, do chores together, and live together. There is a beautiful garden (awww...Flagstaff), and they run a thrift store to help fund the home. Today we worked in the furniture part of the thrift store and organized the poo out of it. Then we mulched, pulled weeds, and beautified.
It felt great to move around and do physical labor. You could see a transformation at the end of the day. It wasn't huge, but it was there. I feel like this is the right place for me to be (which is a good feeling after last night). I'm a tired, but it is the tired of a hard day's work...the best kind of tired.
So, that brings my blog up to date, and hopefully I'll be able to post in real time soon!!!
