Mondays are never the easiest.. even in a tropical paradise. The hospital stay passed without a whole lot of answers but plenty of antibiotics and a bill that set my budget back a bit. Its how the world turns I suppose. If nothing else monday came with a schedule and consistency (both are things I love). Flickr has been updated at http://www.flickr.com/photos/warmheartworldwide/ while the monday volunteer blog went up on time and as scheduled (http://warmheartworldwide.tumblr.com/) which is a nice change of pace.
My vast myriad of emails and chat messages appealing for help and advice on my program went out this afternoon and now I'm awaiting replies and some guidance. How does one know which drug test kits to purchase in america? How does one get around an import tax? Which ones work best? are they all the same? How am I gonna get teenagers to piss in a friggin' cup!!! These are all questions to which I do not completely know the answer to but thanks to some good connections in the U.S. I'm quickly learning. Beyond the cultural barriers in Thailand the realization is that I still have a lot to learn. I'm attempting to stay in the humility of it all. It can be quite overwhelming.
Otherwise, Monday is shaping up quite nicely and I'm, for the part, getting back into the groove of the week. Life is good and I'm feeling more balanced overall. Perhaps the hospital trip was the jolt I needed to get myself back on track physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Love & Rice,
Hannah
