November 6th-8th: Friday-Sunday
My foot has continued to improve over the weekend. The swelling has reduced a bit more each day. While it still produces puss every day it is still improving.
On Saturday Jim and I went down to Mbale with a bunch of the guys from the clinic. JB, Moses, Mark, Albert, and another translator form the clinic. Shoot, I really can’t remember his name right now. Mark needed to do his back to school shopping. I don’t think I have mentioned it before but Mark was approved for a scholarship and is going back to school to become a nurse. He is really excited. Also all the other guys needed to do some shopping and filled the car with cavaras full of purcheses by the end of the day, except fro JB who didn’t have any money.
We ate lunch at the landmark and all the guys really enjoyed it. We had a couple different kinds of dishes. Some chicken masala and lentils and things but the guys just mixed everything together. It was a very fun trip for me. not only did I get to hang out with the guys from the clinic for a day but also I was able to buy some more razors and since my last razor was so dull I couldn’t shave large parts of my face it was greatly appreciated.
After we got back Jim and I really wanted to go for a run. It was nearly dark though so jim grabbed his headlamp and we set out. About half way through the run it got completely dark. Luckily by that time we had gotten to the main road so it was relatively smooth and we could run side by side and both benefit from Jim’s headlamp.
Sunday after church when Jim drove some people back to Namalu I made my mother’s home made macaroni and cheese. Dispite several changes to the recipe due to different ingrediants I thought it tasted nearly as good as my mom’s. a very good meal. Jim liked it too.
