possiblities

the past few days have been a blur with many possibilities. my bestie was hired on at the prison pending a good pee test and background check. but come on she is a new nurse, there is no way she could have sat for her boards if she wasn't clean. this would require her moving here, especially since the cost of traveling 2 hours. i think this is critical not only for her to get her nursing experience, but it's good experience for Haiti. you work with manipulative men day in and day out and we all know how Haitians can be when they are hungry and sick. the prison isn't bad, you just get use to altercations, broken jaws and other bones, penis problems, and of yes the rude way men talk to women. but it comes with a ton of rewards. the past two days we have looked into houses and day cares. i just love house looking. it's like a new beginning in a lot of ways. but it is oh so difficult to find a place for a dog. another good thing is i feel this is a step in the right direction towards Haiti. we have always said we needed to be closer together so that we can prepare for our ministry in Haiti. so right now we are waiting with anticipation of new possibilities. i will expand more once i know more.
