Flat Stanley

I forgot that I had this. My bad.

Our flight info changed just a little bit. Getting into Omaha a little bit later on the way back, but that's all. I guess I never did post the Omaha-Chicago flights anyway. Here's the updated info:
January 19
-1pm depart Omaha, USA
-2:35pm arrive in Chicago, USA
-7:55pm depart Chicago, USA
January 20
-9:30am arrive London, England
-9:05pm depart London, England
January 21
-8:30am arrive Entebbe, Africa

aaaand...

February 4
-9:45am depart Entebbe, Africa
-3:55pm arrive London, England
overnight in London
February 5
-11:35am depart London, England
-2pm arrive Chicago, USA
-8:25pm depart Chicago, USA
-9:56pm arrive Omaha, USA

The flight schedule in two words: long layovers. That's a lot of down time. Which could be good if flights are delayed...let's not think about that.

My niece has this project at school where she had to give everyone a cutout of a guy that she colored. His name is Flat Stanley. We're supposed to take him places and take pictures of him doing stuff in the community that we're in. I'm taking him to Uganda with me. Rylee is going to be the coolest kid in school.

Support for the trip has more than covered the cost. And the non-financial support has been even better than that! Crazy cool.

And now that people in my church know that I babysit, I babysit all the time. ALL THE TIME. Which I enjoy. I think I could quit my job(s) and just babysit for a living. Which, in essence, is what I'm planning on doing anyway, but for some reason I think I need a degree. So does my bank account. But wow, nice people go to our church. And pretty darn cool kids.

"How it's going" on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the greatest (duh.)
Excited = 10
Nervous = 9
Stress = 6.390400218 (it's complicated)
Tired = 8
Work (Scooter's) = 6
Work (church) = 7
School = 5 (that's as high as it gets)
knee pain = 6, down from a recent 9
Happy = solid 8
Crabby = 5 (see "Tired" and "Stress")

Check out the weather in Africa.

That's all.
