Lack of Ideas

It seems that most of the time when I sit down to write one of these I am so tired and tonight is no different, so please excuse my lack of creativity :-/
Let me explain the pictures. The first one is Mary working with our kids from David family on their reading. She has made it a practice that during their school holidays they come over every day for an hour of reading tutoring. The way the school system works here is on a trimester system, where each year is divided into 3 terms. In between each term they have 4 weeks off of school. So when we first moved here we thought that the holidays would bring a slowdown to our lives, but as we quickly found out it actually adds to our schedules. The next picture is of the carpentry students at NHVI completing their practical end of term exam. The next pic is of some monkeys looking in the window of the guest house where we stayed last weekend, and our own monkey (Kevin) in his super suit doing some sort of super maneuver...

Yesterday Geoff traveled deep into the bush to counsel and meet with one of our young men that is currently running from the police, not fun but truly fruitful as he told me that he was willing to do anything to get free including going to prison to serve his time.

Today Geoff went to Luweero to pick up two 12 ft x 12 ft steel doors that were made for the maize mill. He had to find transport for them and negotiate the cost (this was hilarious). He then watched 10 men load them in Luweero, travel 12 miles down a bumpy dirt road sitting on them in the back of the lorry, unload them and then argue amongst themselves about who woule get what share of the six dollars (total) they were paid for the work. Each man went away with 1000 Uganda shillings (about .60 cents)and that was considered fair pay!

Our house plans are fully drawn up and "soon" construction will begin. The forest is still being cleared, it takes quite a while to clear 2 acres of dense jungle forest. They clear all the underbrush and the trees that are not good, keeping only the fruit trees or any that will serve for good shade. Today it looks like they found 2 very old graves maybe dating back 50 years. What will be done with these?? I will update you later. They rest right where our front door will most likely be... Any way enough of my lack of creativity.
