Ghana, Day 35 - Mail Call!

Hi Ruth!

I'm still in Ghana.  I hope the people working in the basement are almost done! I saw a picture of you going with Mommy to get them donuts.  Yum!

Today I had a pretty good morning because I went to the Embassy and there was mail!  From you!  And also from Grammy!  And Aunt Cori!  Grammy and Aunt Cori wrote me some nice notes, and now I have a bunch of pictures and artwork from you.  I need to figure out where to put up the jellyfish!  And the replacement credit cards that Mommy mailed me also came, which is good.

Then, I mostly worked when I got back.  I did some reading, and then I ran a discussion group with some of the other people in the department [we read part of Arendt's On Violence].  And then I came home and made some more peanut soup - this time with chicken in it.  And worked some more, and tried calling the people fixing the basement to make sure everything gets done.

And now I'm just missing you.  But I have your art to look at when I'm sad.
