What a weekend! This one started at 19:30 on Friday evening when a few of us vols plus the EWB headed to 'Feel at Home' spot for after work drinks! We sat under the stars in the pitch black chopping on guinea fowl and mixing our drinks!
After three hours sleep Friday night, Saturday needed to be a chilled one and what better way to start it than sat on the sofa wearing my hoodie with a fried egg sandwich and a hot chocolate while watching the rain fall!
By lunchtime the rain had stopped and we decided it was time to 'start' the day so a trip to the market was in order. After rushing around the market in the scorching hot midday sun we popped into 'Good Taste' for a red red lunch then hopped on the moto to head for home! A DVD evening with pesto pasta dinner was the perfect way to end the day!
Yesterday started at 8am with a convoy moto trip to Sirigu Baby's Home where a few of us vols decided to pitch in and help decorate some of the baby's rooms. The babies in the home all have no mothers, as they died during or just after giving birth. They are taken into the baby's home, where they are cared for with the help of a family member - grandmother or aunt, until they reach the age of three when they are then re-entered into their family home.
The EWB and I were given 'Mr Tickle' to paint!

After such a busy morning, the afternoon and evening consisted of listening to music, deep and meaningful conversations, sheep kebabs, Star and alvaro at 'Feel at Home' and tomato and alefu risotto! And what better way to end the weekend than with a 5am orange and pink sunrise moto ride this morning to drop the EWB at the tro park!
Where is a photo of you and Mr?
ReplyDeleteAre you blind?! Can you not see the last photo?
ReplyDeleteHow's things back home? News on Rob? I think about him at least once everyday!
xx
Well it didn't clearly say that was him!
ReplyDeleteWent to see Rob today, was heartbreaking. Your post about life changing decisions is certainly relevant to the driver of that car. :(
Cool I'm actually glad it's not so clear, I like that little bit of ambiguity!
ReplyDeleteOh that is so sad, how was he mentally as well as physically? He's on a new, unexpected path now where great things will happen, just in a way he had never expected!
Sometimes we have no choice on the path we take, the Universe just decides for us and we have to roll with the punches! The Universe and Mr? are deciding my next path for me, which is most exciting :-)
The Universe often doesn't know whats best for individuals I think.
ReplyDeleteMentally he seems absolutely fine, he's still Rob. Which hurts because he knows exactly what is going on, exactly how it is going to change him. It is so clear that he is really hurting but hiding it from everybody.
I hate the phrase 'roll with the punches' its been ruined by some absolute twat on the apprentice.
