A new week April 24

What a day!!! The morning was crazy as 2 of us were looking for some jobs for about 15 people who had come in late yesterday afternoon. We have numerous roofing jobs yet but some of these people don't want to get on a roof, which is their right. But we had everyone going somewhere by noon. Mondays are usually confusing, frustrating, challenging mornings with new groups. It takes a day or so to get everyone organized into the routine of village life. Some one complimented me on running a tight ship and really appreciated it.


The big news for the day was the delivery of the new commerical stove. It has 6 burners and runs on propane. We can't use it yet until the propane tank gets delivered but we hope it is soon. My cook for the week gave it a big hug as it came out of the box. We have 65 people here this week so is a challenge cooking for that many.

I will be getting a washer/dryer one of these days also. Then we will really be a completly sufficient village. So today a couple people measured for a shed to house it. We ended up buying a metal shed placed next to the showers and propane tank. I'm excited about this as I'm the only village without a washer/dryer. We need it to do the towels for the kitchen plus mine.

Time to go for tonite. Blessings to you. Phyllis
