Today was graduation day!
Which basically means that somehow we
pulled off the impossible – because the ceremony was in the room we
have been working on. It's been incredibly insane, but in a good way.
I don't think that I have gotten to bed before midnight at all this
week. But anyways, with the help of the Bostrom kids, some of the
high school students, and others we finally got rid of all the paper,
finished our movable platform/scaffolding, painted the entire ceiling
black (using brushes and little tiny rollers – seriously took
forever but we had a BLAST!), scrubbed/scraped the whole floor and
laid carpet tiles.
So yeah. Busy. Which of course explains
why I haven't blogged very much.....
The ceremony today went really well,
except for the fact that the dance that some of the kids did moved
the carpet tiles (because they hadn't been secured down due to lack
of time) and they almost tripped during their performance.... but
other then that it went really well I thought. Carissa and Alex
graduated. It will be strange now not having Alex around, he was such
a great help with the painting and stuff and endlessly entertaining.
And Asami is leaving for Tokyo tomorrow – I will miss her SO MUCH!
It's sad – I pretty much cried at the ceremony today cause I am
losing two of my new bestest buddies. Gosh, I hate goodbyes. *sigh*......
That's really all I can think of. Obviously there is way more that has happened but my brain is kinda dead currently.
Thanks again for prayers and support!
