July 5. The day started out nice and sunny; but by midday, the clouds started filling the sky again, and the evening became quite chilly. Mike was not feeling well this morning, and Sunny had a bad headache. They all did well on their Bible quiz though. Daddy spent the morning making phone calls and has arranged for a doctor appointment for me at SIL early Monday morning. He hasn’t been able to get in touch with the guest house, however, to make arrangements for lodging. Since there won’t be any school for at least the first three days next week, I didn’t want to start anything new so just let the students finish up the assignments they were working on. That shortened school time a bit so they were out by 12:20. Sunny filled up the washing machine before she left. I hope she is feeling well enough tomorrow to wash clothes. While they were working on math, I wrote another e-mail to C&C, mostly with some business matters I had forgotten yesterday. The weather wasn’t good enough this evening to send it out though. This afternoon, I made some revisions on the music lesson I had finished yesterday evening and started writing a quiz for the new Bible lesson. Finished up the quiz this evening. Finished grading the students’ math and English lessons that they finished today. Started getting June’s progress report ready to send to Pastor Ogle, but didn’t get it finished before shut down time. “For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.” Psalm 48:14 What other God is so great as our God who guides us all our lives through, even unto death? And through death, and on into eternity, He will still be our God. July 6. Sunny was not here this morning for lotu. I wondered how she would be feeling today. Sent some aspirin with Apekio to give to Sunny. I was thankful for Bonita’s willingness to do the laundry in Sunny’s place. While Bonita was doing laundry, I had more prayer time. When she went out to hang clothes, I went out and helped her hang up the king size flat sheet. Then I came back in and pureed the soup I had made yesterday. It didn’t take very long, and Daddy waited for me to do that job before turning off the generator. After that I cleaned the bathroom sink and toilet. Then Daddy and I checked Hebrews chapter 7. Praise the Lord for His help with that. Then I made corrections in the computer and went to set up the corrected chapter in the print file, only to discover that I hadn’t even started putting Hebrews in the print file. Then I remembered that the Microsoft files in this computer weren’t available last month when we did the first six chapters. And I didn’t work on the print file in the ACER, because the ACER messes up the whole formatting. I had, however, made the corrections in the regular ACER file, but had never transferred them to the Lenovo. So I turned on the ACER long enough to do that. (Mom and Dad continue to have computer problems, and now Mom’s computer (the Lenovo) has died because of a bad hard drive. Please pray as they try to work without that extra computer. Thanks!) By then it was time to get dinner so would work on that later. Warmed up some of the pureed soup for dinner and also ate more of the greens. Then we got the clothes in. We were thankful to the Lord for giving us enough sunshine this morning to dry most of the clothes. We only had to hang a few in the house after bringing all the clothes in. After we did that and hung up a few dry clothes in the closet and made up the bed, it was time for a nice nap. After nap, I worked a little bit on Hebrews until my eyes needed a break. Then I started packing some things to take out with me on Monday, and also folded and put away all the rest of the laundry. Late this afternoon, Lynn came to visit us and to share her burdens and seek some encouragement. We were glad to try to be a blessing to her. It was 5:30 when she left. Then I mashed up eggs for supper sandwiches and also warmed up more of the soup. Need to try to finish it up by the end of the day tomorrow, as there will be no fridge running to keep it preserved while we are gone. Since heavy rains had come while Lynn was here, and the weather had turned quite chilly, I put bath water on while I was doing dishes so I could take a bath as soon as I finished the dishes. After bath, I worked on the Hebrews print file for a while. Then I printed Bible and music lessons and Bible quizzes, and also photo-copied some English worksheets. Amos and Mata, along with some others, made it back to the village this evening. Amos had no big complaints about there not being an interpreter. He said that he understood a lot of the preaching and had taken notes. That befuddles me as he had a very hard time learning English when he and Matthew were in my class several years ago. 😊
