December 27

it's sunday night, alex is eating cake we baked this afternoon and the cat is limping, she somehow hurt her front, left leg today while we were gone, probably climbing the walls of the bush kitchen after some lizard. There's no vet anywhere, so I think we'll have to pray nomo.

Today has been pretty chill, we went to church this morning, but the entire sermon was in language, so we didn't come away with much. Then we made some curry and baked a cake for lunch, then we played with the guitars and talked about what we are going to do after peace corps. Alex spent some time working on our budget for the next 6 months. It's looking pretty good, we'll be alright.

Tomorrow, we plan to plant a bunch of the seedlings we've grown - 5 tomatoes, 1 coriander, 3 parsley, 1 bell pepper (kapsikum), 3 chili (pima) and 2 spring onions. There are others that are ready to go into the ground, but we're waiting until the house is finished because we don't want them to get trampled during construction time. the hundred or so spring onions we planted last week are all growing well, so here's hoping we'll have our first major harvest in three months time...

Alex is practicing the minor pentatonic scale on the guitar. Alex starts health survey at 7am tomorrow morning.
