The office for the schools, kind of
the regional office, was in the midst of moving when I arrived which was ok,
because it takes a day or two to get situated and months to figure out the bus
system. Okay, not months. I’m actually feeling much better about my
commuting skills. But there is something to the whole jet lag issue that takes
just a bit of time to resolve. As it
turned out, the move didn’t happen as planned, some things are universal, so I
started traveling to the old office to start helping the staff there.
I’m helping where
ever I can at the office with a variety of tasks that I feel well suited to
including some editing, document updating, and entering donor information into
a tracking and reporting program. I'll
also be working on the website and Facebook page, looking at the layout and the
articles, updating and keeping up to date with the many activities at the
schools and their associated communities. Five growing schools with accompanying
communities is a lot to keep up with, and so much goes on here that people
should know about! With that thought in
mind, have you visited the Hand In Hand web site or Facebook Page? If not, please do. And please, Like and Share us on Facebook! Little Hand in Hand should not be a well-kept
secret!
I am still expecting to spend more time
at the school, the thought is that I can work with the English teacher. I can do that, I know English.
And the new office location? requires I take only one bus. I like that.
It’s way more fun enjoying the view not stressing over my transfer
point. Today, Friday, I actually braved
the light rail and the bus system. I did a little shopping and found St. Andrews
Scottish Presbyterian church (more on that later) where I plan to worship on
Sunday. So, the bus system isn’t as bad as it would like me to
think.
Baby steps. Sounds like things are falling into place nicely.
