I haven’t gotten to post anything since we got here so I though I would update you guys on what I’m up to.
Pretty much nothing... Justin and I get up in the morning and get ready for somebody to pick us up and take us to the office around 8am. When we get there, we check our email and answer any that need answering. After that Justin coordinates volunteers (booking hotels, making iteneraries, working out the details, etc.) and I read. At the moment I am reading a book titled, “Friend Raising” by Betty Barnett. However, I only have like 2 Chapters left so I will probably be finished by today or tomorrow. And then I will start “The Gospel according to Disney: Faith, Trust and Pixie Dust” by Mark Pinsky. I usally read and work crosswords until luch. After lunch I will finish whatever I was doing before we sat down to eat. As soon as I’m done with that I usually walk down to the nursery and play with babies or run errands with Justin. And then at about 5ish somebody takes us to get food and then back to the lodge we are currently living in....

When the teams start to arrive I will probably volunteer with them in the villages and nurseries but until then my days are pretty....relaxed. So thats it in a nutshell, a day in the life of Joni Manon!
