well it's been almost a month since I've logged into blogger, almost forgot how. I am "home" in the US now and trying to fit back into life here....for awhile at least. it seems that life in the states goes on without slowing down, and trying to jump back on the moving merry go round is kind of hard. there is no routine really for me here yet. I have spent way too much money and eaten far too many meals "out on the town"...including Applebee's and Burger King. so I need to cut back...especially since work is not jumping out at me to obtain. have been in contact with a friend who has contacts with many audiologists and he knows of no summer vacation needs for work, so I need a plan B.....likely fast food or pizza delivery, IF I can get it.

I am working thru the process of deciding whether to return to Haiti next year. as I said, work has not been forthcoming, so again it becomes a matter of faith. as I wrestle with God on this, if I feel Haiti is where He wants me, Iwill go and not worry about the money. and if not, well,then I will find whatever work I can. I do have a chance to get some used audiology equipment very cheaply, $1000 for a used audiometer and tympanometer. that would help if I go back to be able to maybe do some work there to make some money. I know it will all work out.....sometimes I just wish I could peak at the end of the chapter to see how things work out! I hope and pray that Al and Bev, Gary and Caroline, Barb and the other missionaries home for summer are having good summers. And that those still there are surviving the heat! I see there has been no storm activity yet and I praise God for that! we'll see how summer goes along. I miss some things there. I do miss the kids and staff, they all became a part of my life. I don't miss so many other things, but I guess that is kind of the way it was being in Haiti and thinking of the US. it is good to see my son's and catch up on their lives, to see friends and see where their lives are going. I guess I just have to find a way to live in both places at the same time. or maybe 6 months here, 6 months there. life is good to have such problems.
