One More Try

Darwin and I walked to the grocery store again. We are realizing that people go to the store often because they are all on foot and have to carry the groceries back home. Darwin is getting good at figuring out the money and can calculate the exchange to dollars in his head. We got a few things at the bigger store and the got bottled water at the little store closer to the apartment. It is really interesting. It seems that everyone is intent on getting where they want to go. They don't look others in the eye. It is rare to see smiles as you walk here and there.

To get into the apartment we have an i-disc (that's what we call it where I work) to get in the main door. We go up one flight of stairs to the elevator. It is very small and I would hate to ever be stuck in it. We go up to the 6th floor and unlock another door with another key. The third key is for the apartment door. We almost have it figured out. Our facilitator was inside coaching Darwin as he struggled. Finally we got in!

This has been a low key day. I am glad. I didn't sleep well because I was thinking about when we see Anya on Monday. This is an exciting time and we are depending on the Lord as we move forward. Sleep would be a good idea though. :-)

  3. Wishing you blessings as you journey to Kremenchuk/meet with Anya. Darwin's info about latitude/sunrise/sunset was very interesting. Looking forward to more news. Thanks to your sissy for helping me comment. :)
