Greetings to you all!
This too is my first blog and I'm rather excited! I've enjoyed reading what people have posted so far and it's good to know the 'funk' is normal.
The Monday after we returned I definitely felt it--okay, it could have been a little jet lag too but...I told Aaron that morning that I didn't want to do anything that day. I didn't feel like unpacking, cleaning the house and I didn't even feel like 'doing nothing'. Of all the things to do, I guess work seemed like the best option because it at least got me started back in my routine again. And then all the 'how was your trip questions'...by the time Sunday rolled around I didn't even feel like staying after to talk about the trip with people. I have my two or three sentences I say but how can you really share with someone about it if you can't sit down with them, tell the history of Uganda and of what the kids have gone through or the greatest part--how God is and always has been present in their life. I am looking forward to our presentation though so we can share the deeper story.
I hope you all are well and that you are feeling better Nancy. Way to go with the girl Jon! Camille, I have the pictures and just need to get them in the mail. Greg, happy birthday a little late! I'm looking forward to hearing about your trip Sonja and I'm on the wait list at the library for The Number One Ladies Detective Agency. And last but not least, Aaron--so, what's for dinner?!
Have a great weekend!

All this talk about Africa has made me hungry for something deep fried or white and starchy. French fries fits the bill on both accounts! Mmmm. I love fries!

Dear Autumn:
So great to hear from you! May God bless you and use you and Aaron mightily as you share in your church about Uganda. I haven't quite gotten to the point where I long to dive in to a big bowl of rice or fried anything yet - don't think I have to worry too much about encountering goat any time soon! I do wish I had their recipe for coleslaw, though! Have you heard form Sue and Ed? I hope they're doing well. Smooches to you - Nancy
