Merry Christmas! I know I haven't been writing very much lately. Busyness + lack of ability to sort out thoughts=that. But here is a video. :-)

oh so tired, but it's worth it
Things have been BUSY around here.
We've had an outreach team from Bulgaria stay with us a few times as they've been traveling in/between Georgia and Armenia, and they were just here for 3 more days...and left this morning.
But before they even left, an Korean DTS outreach team (from Oregon) came early this morning. So Ira and I were up at 6:00 am welcoming people and helping others get ready to leave and...yeah!
And when the Bulgarian DTS left for the bus station, and the Korean DTS left to take care of some business downtown, I was in Vazi ALONE. Can you believe it? It's been a very long time since I've been totally alone (not that I necessarily dislike people, but it's just nice after intense activity!). So, I cleaned and it was just really good.
Then Nino Deda, she's the manager of Vazi (where I live), came and we talked about life and Jesus and the future. And purpose. She's going to be a student in our DTS, but she seriously is like MY teacher!
And I just went and got a copy of my passport (I'm working on my documents for my one-year visa), picked up some pants from the tailor and ate some khatchapuri. And I am really really tired now, as I sit in a dark room (one of the Korean ladies is staying in our room, and she's sleeping), with a full stomach. Oy mey. SO tired.
But I'm learning. Pushing on. I'm glad to be here. I really love Georgia.

With some of the Bulgarian DTS!
