Ergli days
I have been in ergli since about 830 monday night when Guna and i arrived here on the bus. bus rides here are not interesting at all, i think mostly becuz nobody talks.. at all. the whole bus is silent. not that its a huge bus or anything becuz its very small also, but still its amazing to me how no one will talk, even 2 people sitting togethet who knw eachother. so of course i was not about to sit for an hour in silence. HA! right! so i spoke to Guna almost the entire way.. and the best part was that we wernt sitting together, so i had to turn around. pretty much the whole bus was watching and listening to me. but no worries.. im getting used to the stares now, becuz everybody looks at me. i think its becuz im speaking english, and usually im speaking loudly and with lots of enthusiasm. so anyways we stayed the night at Dastins and Kristinis house becuz Davis Kingdom was at Dan and Katies for the BBI(Bridge Builders International) meeting on tuesday. which was infact the reason we were here. Guna and i were to watch all kids while they had this meeting in a gorgeous hotel outside of ergli. well it ended up that little esse had the flu, so katie stayed home with her, jonathan went working with bruce so Guna and i only had anna bethany and rebeka. easy! they played all day. we just had to make sure they didnt die, and feed them every now and then.. lol. jk we took great care of them. so when marvin left he left me some vanilla, chocolate chips and baking powder, things that are difficult to get out here, and he told Elmars that if he gave me the stuff i woulod make yummy cookies for him. so yesterday evening i made chocolate chip cookies, which everyone loved. yay me! i am fianlly cooking for all you who thought that day would never come. and also i eat like twicw as much as i did at home! (K.K.) i am definately eating plenty. so today is Latvijas Republikas proklamēšanas diena. lativas independence day, so we will be having a special church service today at 5, at our church in madona and the catholic and lutheran churches are both coming. im exited to see what its like. also nobody has school 2day, so all the kids have been home this morning. please pray for me that i wont get sick, ive shared a bed with Guna the last 2 nights and shes sick and kristni is sick, and anna and esse. and my family is actually sick also, so im surrounded my sickies, and dont want t0 get it.
