Not that I had any pending plans to do so. We have been given lotsa info and prep for what we should do in case poeple start to get sick here. I have a feeling I am safer here than I would be anywhere else when it comes to illnesses. The Peace Corps really does a good job taking care of our health. I am SO greatful for that! Luckily I haven’t been sick lately though, hopefully it will stay that way!

Alright… so I haven’t dropped of the face of the earth, although it may appear to be the case! So I was thinking the other day and realized that in only four small months I will have been here for a year. That is bizarre to think about. Time really goes so fast sometimes, although at other times it definitly just pokes along!

Nicaragua has recently done some messing around with telephone numbers so for one reason or another you now must dial an 8 in front of my number if you want to call me…
