Believe it or not, we're already a week into October! I don't know how or when that happened, but it certainly did.
In September, some kiddos took us around Ningbo for a Saturday. Our group decided that our time would be best spent eating, and man-oh-man did we eat! We also did a mystery room and made pottery. It was sweet of the kids to hang out with us and we had a good time.
The first month back in China was good, but stressful. I have a new position at work, and it is a lot for me to handle. I am also teaching 11th grade English, three normal and one honors classes. That is taking a toll on me as well. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but it's wearing me out! I think the combination of a wonderful, but busy summer and then right into a new job just about killed me. So from October 1-7, Clay and I went to the Philippines. This time we didn't do any touristy stuff, we just relaxed. I'm talking like 12 hours of sleeping each day. Partly because it was rainy season and partly because I'm tired. We did get a few hours of sun each day and I almost got the tan that I didn't get this summer. It was glorious. Just what I needed. We're in for a long haul now. No real breaks until February. No problem....OYE!
