Routines are being Discovered (Part 2) 25 August

On the road again

Just can’t wait to get on the road again…

Goin’ places that I’ve never been

Seein’ things that I may never see again

And I can’t wait to get on the road again

-Willie Nelson

I love it when a song from the past starts playing in my head about my current experiences. 

Today I went with Marie to look for composition books for school. The truth is I was going alone and after going in and out of the house 3 times looking for my phone I just decided to leave and find my way by myself without Google or Mazie maps. (I had some idea of where I was going) My rational, in Uganda I did not have a phone and managed. I stopped by Marie’s to let her know what brave thing I was doing without a phone. She also needed to go so Hannah, Marie and I took off in Marie’s car. She showed me where the Lidl was located and took me to a store that smelled and looked like a bookstore as we entered. As we mazed through the store guitars lined the walls, another turn displayed office and craft supplies, followed by cake decorating and toys consisting of Legos and Playmobil. The photos below compare French paper versus American paper.

Later in the day we invited Marie, Noah and Hannah over to swim and have tacos with us. Before they arrived I decided I was going to Lidl by myself. I did it! Check out a grocery store located on the 2nd floor. The afternoon and evening were delightful, kids laughing and splashing while mommas were chatting. Randy continued to recover from his sickness.
