TGIF

Well... this past week was one of the worst weeks I've had in Honduras. The only time that was worse than this week was at the very beginning, when I was so overwhelmed because I moved to Honduras, signed my contract, and started teaching second grade to non-English speakers all in one week.

This week was bad for many reasons, none of which I'm actually planning on writing on this blog. I would be more than happy to tell anyone who wants to ask me about my crazy witch neighbor who is constantly starting drama, or about the frustrating way the school administrators choose to conduct themselves, or about the fact that our oven ran out of gas this week, or about the cicada that flew into my room and is still in here somewhere, or about a few other things that happened this week that made me want to pull my hair out in frustration. But I'm going to skip the details here. :)

So all sorts of stupid things happened, but now it's the weekend. I love weekends. They give me an opportunity to stop and breathe, and enjoy the mornings, and sit and look at the mountains all day. My weekends are always the same- I wash my clothes... and that's about it. Haha. But I love it. I need it. I sit in the hammock and read, or write, or just listen to the noises. It's peaceful.

We're getting to the home stretch now...less than 5 weeks left. Bad weeks are okay. They make the good weeks feel even better.
