I get up at 7ish, wash up and make coffee, turn on some
instrumental music and have my devos.
By 9, Danielle has gotten up, washed up and had
breakfast. Nafisa follows her slowly and
we gather together for a short devo to start our day.
I leave at 9:20am to a coffee shop to meet with 2 other
men for accountability.
By 10, Nafisa is hard at work doing homeschooling with
Merrilea. Danielle also hits the books by 9:30ish
By noon, I’m back to prep for meetings and trainings for the
week.
We either fend for ourselves for lunch if Merrilea goes
to visit a local gal at her beauty salon for a few hours… they have a prayer meeting
and Bible study, or Merrilea has lunch prepped … could be simple sandwiches to
stew or spaghetti to some tasty Indian cuisine.
Nafisa usually spends the afternoon out with her friends
playing in our apartment complex playground… then spends two hours with our
next door neighbor learning Hindi. She doesn’t understand much yet but her pronunciation
is awesome!
We usually eat at the Indian traditional time between
7-9pm. Danielle has been having a computer graphics class most evenings from
7-9pm as well. Thus, she usually does not eat supper with us.
Currently, our table is out on the terrace but so are the
boxes…boxes of things we still have to go through to give away or organize. We
moved into a smaller apartment in April so we’re still trying to get things
worked out…while not slowing down our work load. ;-) Hopefully by the time our niece Sarah comes
this month we’ll have more things worked out so we can use our table!
Nafisa usually heads to bed around 9…lights out at
9:30. Merrilea and I turn in around 10-11ish depending on what's going on that week. Thankfully, we are located in a much more pleasant area a block away from major traffic. Much more peaceful. We hear birds! For the last 6 years it's been major traffic, donkeys and dogs!The telephone and internet connectivity is not as good ... but it's give-and-take.
