Lazy Sunday afternoon

We moved into our apartment yesterday and are now mostly settled in. It is a very nice third floor apartment (hooray- we get a breeze when there is one and everyone knows that snakes can’t climb three flights!). The building is brand new and is not quite full yet. The picture is the view we have from our living room.
We went to the supermarket yesterday and bought what we thought we would need for the next few days to a week. However, when it came time to make supper, it was a bit frustrating. You know all those things that are “just there” in your cupboard, fridge and freezer? Well, it turns out they aren’t really “just there” in every cupboard and fridge- someone has to put them there. Supper was pretty skimpy last night- soup (which I brought from home) and toast with butter. So…back to the supermarket today for more groceries. Supper will be a little better today, but meals will likely be pretty basic the whole time we are here. It was much easier when we came to Uganda for a couple of weeks, the guesthouse staff fed and clothed us and Apollo and Anthony did everything else for us. This has been and will continue to be a growing and stretching time in our lives. Everything is new and we need to figure out how to accomplish it on our own. In the next couple of days, we will get a car and then the craziness will really begin! (**Newsflash for everyone who knows Apollo- he and Judith had a baby girl on January 12. We haven’t seen her yet, but we will send pictures when we do.)
We went to church this morning and worshiped the Lord with our brothers and sisters at Watoto church. It is so amazing how the message that was preached (Financial integrity) is relevant to everyone living anywhere on the planet.
We are just hanging out having a lazy Sunday afternoon, enjoying the beautiful 30 degrees (no minus in front of that) and listening to the birds, goats and roosters- oh, the sounds of Uganda!
