Wow! It's been already a week ago since I posted in here, and I'm trying to wrap my mind around how fast this week has gone!! It's been a good week, somewhat mind stretching with math classes and a final exam for our herb course. Next week we will be finishing up the math course and starting microbiology. Then in the beginning of February we pick up statistics and counseling along with the microbiology. So our course schedule is unlike most schools...I guess we attempt to pack in as much as possible!:)
The work at the clinic continues to go well! The shift I worked yesterday was very busy with five births in one morning! The little bundle I delivered was named James- so neat! The last girl I delivered was named Murphy! :) Oh the names you get to hear when working in the clinic! :)
I'm going to cut this one short- I picked up a cold yesterday and it feels as though my head might explode! Our little remedy for colds around here is to eat a few garlic cloves- as long as we don't do it before shift! :)
Take care and have a great week ahead!!!
sending a big e-hug!

Moutain Outreach Pictures
2009 Has arrived and on its way....:)
A Belated to New Year!1 Sorry it's been so long! My big to-do list for Christmas break got left out of my schedule with the craziness that Christmas brought! I had big plans of catching up on e-mails and blogging, and I also discovered that I shouldn't promise to post pictures anymore...oops! But I do have an album ready to post, I'm just waiting for it to download. It's of the Mountain Outreach I went on awhile back.
I feel that it's been so long, and there's so much to tell you about. Instead of boring you with a long post, maybe I'll space it out.
So, 2009 has arrived and I was extremely blessed to have Diane and Tim here to open up the New Year with! They arrived on December 26th, and so I went to Manila to meet them. We spent a few days there with some friends (Tim & Michelle) before flying back to Davao to see my home here! They spent two weeks here in the Philippines, and Tim and Michelle also came for a week, so the five of us had a great time together! I felt so spoiled to have so many friends and family here- I enjoyed every minute of it!! We got lots of sun with snorkeling and site seeing around Davao. It was such a special time! Diane and Michelle came to one of my birth-room shifts and were able to witness three births! It was very sad to see them leave, and I felt like jumping on the plane with them! This past week as been pretty busy trying to catch up on school, and I also happened to be on cooking duty. It was a good week, although a little difficult getting back into things! :)
okay, I'm going to go ahead and post those pictures.
Take care all! Thank you so much for your support through prayers, letters and e-mails! I am blessed!!
Sending a big hug!
