Updates

I suppose since I introduce you to my neighbors and coworkers that I should update you as life changes here.

So Tabita 'the bigmouth' has made some positive changes in her life. She has traded in her bottle of booze for a steady job. She now mans the water station across the street from me. It is great news for me because there is now a constant source of water right there, plus she let's me cut in line. It gets her out of bed early. She is always dressed smartly now. And she is hard worker - work isn't done until the sun sets. I couldn't be prouder. I hope the water is steady so that she doesn't relapse.

My coworker Christine is indeed preggers with her first child. She has been having some horrible nausea which keeps her away from work some days. In fact there were a couple of weeks that she was hospitalized. She seems to be doing better now that she is out of the first trimester. I can't wait to see her baby. I just hope she doesn't quit work. It is especially fun reading 'What to Expect When You are Expecting' with a Rwandan woman.

I have successfully avoided Bubba for months now. Although he does seem to have a job of fetching water. He even changes his clothes now. Plus I've met most of his children (I hope there's not too many more!) and they are generally good kids.
