Week 19 : DR People tell me I'm Going to Die! (Aug25)

Bueno, 

I had a brilliant idea to write out my weekly letter and just send pictures of it, but now the computer won´t read my memory card... backfire.. :P

En pocas palabras... this week was good.  Carlos is working on quitting coffee.  Is progressing so well, even recognizing the spirit.  I can't wait for his baptism.  Hopefully his mom won't be far behind.  They are both so great :)

I got a mysterious bug bite on  my foot this week and is swelled up and turned red and what not.  Some Dominican lady made it sound like I was going to die and told me to go to the hospital, but I'm fine now. The swelling has gone down alot and it hardly hurts anymore.

I believe the world is coming to an end because it is raining in Azua!!  We hardly ever get rain here.  It started on satruday morning and has been rain basically the whole time since.  I love it!  We had the brilliant idea to save the rain water since we haven't received water for 6 weeks now.  We spent 1 1/2 hours last night filling buckest from runoff from the roof and putting it into the spare bathroom tub.  By morning though, the water in the tub was gone. After pugging it better this morning (or so we thought)  We filled it once more (because it was STILL raining).  We decided to shower like the Dominicans do and wash our hair in the rain spout, which was quite fun!! ;)  When we came back in, the tub was empty :P  Oh well...  

Sorry this is lame and short.  I spent most of my time trying to get my memory card to work :P  Love you all

Love, Hermana Perry
