Well things are really moving quick as I really only have two weeks left of Volunteering!!! ahhh. Yes, i´m nervous to finish things up. haha.
So with all the donations I started by helping Lady´s fmaily finish up a room of their house. I paid for a roof and floor borads for a second level. This is awesome because now their house has doubled in size. If i can ever figure out how to post photos again i´ll be sure to put them up. haha. I wish the electricity would go as fast as everything else here. The electrical company is taking forever to get things going but I really hope hope hope that next week it will be up an running for this family. Lady will finally be able to complete her homework after ths un goes down!
Now i´m also trying to bring a psychologist from lima up here who has a wide range of experience with autism. I am in contact with an organization but this is also a slow process. After a week of waiting they finally gave the information for a trained professional that i can contact. I was hoping I would be able to work directly through the organization but this is better than nothing. I´ll keep you updated on this!
Tomorrow, me and a few other volunteers are going to take a few of the kids shopping for clothing, school supplies, cleaning supplies, and other such things. That should be a fun and crazy afternoon in the city.
They celebrate mothers day here! When I woke up in the morning i was told by my host mom that I needed to cook fish for about 15 people. hahaha. It was fun but crazy. The familys are huge here. I don´t know if my mind is capable of keeping track of such a huge family. haha. Fun stuff.
Well that is all for now!
take care
