Surgical Brigade #2

A real quick update......
We are busy cleaning and preparing the clinic still. The new group gets here on Saturday, so its very close! It is supposively a huge group (and mom said she thinks some people are coming from my home church). I'm not sure yet if I will be staying up at the clinic during the week or with my family in Chicacao, but I will let you all know.
I've been helping Kata clean and sanitize everything. She laughed a little too hard when I told her about how I used to dust (and still do dust) my room at home.....mom can atest to how I just cleaned "around" things and left a carpet of dust showing where things had been placed for the 6 months before. I think she laughed so hard because she doesn't quite approve of my cleaning techniques here at the clinic. Haha, cleaning has never been one of my strengths!

I'm really enjoying the friendships I am making here, and I will be very sad to say goodbye to them. I think I have more close friends in Guatemala now than I do back in Knoxville. But, all in due time. Hope you all are well. Will write more soon when I have more stories to tell.
