End of week 1

I did it, I survived week 1! Every afternoon I was getting a headache at around 2pm but it would go away once I got home. I think it's stress. But today, no headache. That's improvement. I learned something new about Ethiopia. They count their hours differently - daylight and nighttime. Our 12noon is 6 Ethiopian daylight. Makes a lot of sense to me! (This came up when a co-worker and I were trying to set up at conference call with Ethiopian health staff. We came into work early to catch them (7h ahead of us) before they left work for the day!)

And good news, I have a place to live! I will be moving in some stuff this Saturday, and hopefully move in completely on April 12, once I have furniture. More in the blog to come...

Dear Julie,
Congratulations on your new job! I'm sure you will do great and be a blessing to many people. You have had a great Christian witness for many years now, and I'm sure you make the Lord proud as you draw people to Him!
God bless you!
