Showers

So most everyone knows that Eric and I are now living in Gilbert, Arizona (the little Zion, as it is called here). And I must say, this is a really big adventure for us. I went to Mozambique back in 2007 with a non-profit called Care For Life. I haven't done much with them since, except for their monthly newsletters. But it is a great organization, and I needed an internship to graduate. My major is public health and what CFL is doing and accomplishing, seemed to fit perfectly with public health. So voila! Now we are here. Linda Harper was my team leader when I went to MOZ and she now happens to be the president of CFL. So she and her family are kindly letting us stay in one of their camping trailers on their property while we are here for the next 3 months....yes a camp trailer. A very old camp trailer. They are only going to charge us a tiny amount to help with the utilities. It's fantastic. Linda was so worried what we would think or how we would feel living in a tiny trailer. But we just look at it as an adventure. It is much smaller then our tiny apartment back in Rexburg. The oven, stove-top, and heat are all run by propane. So lets just say that showers have not really been working for me. I think the longest shower I have taken has been 3-4 mins...which is better then the 2 min showers I was taking. For some reason, I can't get the water to stay hot. Eric on the other hand has not had a problem with this at all. He tried to teach me, which is why I had one shower that was 3-4 mins long. Yet, this is still not long enough to shave my Amazon lady hairy legs. So lets just say I have been sorta avoiding the shower. So I woke up this morning with my hair looking like this



Although I don't have the facial hair, the bangs are pretty dead on.

  2. Oh my gosh! I had no idea any of this was going on. I decided to Facebook stalk you and I found your blog. Hope you're enjoying Gilbert! So funny you are living in the Harpers' trailer. That means you are in my home stake right now!
