If you're reading my blog you're probably aware of how easily I tend to get excited....and lately I've had three pretty neat additions to my house which are very exciting! :)
I'm not sure how many people know this, but I've always wanted to have a rocking chair when I'm grown up with a family...and even wanted one for the past year that I was out here at Sakeji. Well...somebody here found out about that and moved a rocking chair from another house over to mine, knowing that I'd really enjoy it! I'll have to move it back when I leave here, but for now it's mine, and that's pretty cool!
Next is a toaster! There wasn't a toaster in my house when I moved here, and I guess I figured the hassle of buying one from town (they are pretty expensive) wasn't really worth it. Well, again, someone on station asked me if I'd like to use their old toaster for a while (as they got a new one), so having toast for breakfast is becoming a new treat!
The last very exciting addition is a piano!!! This is a temporary thing, but exciting none-the-less! There are a few pianos scattered around station, but none in my house. Right now however, the assembly hall is being renovated, and during the period of time when that will be happening the piano gets to stay with me!!! Again, this was suggested by other staff members who figured that I'd appreciate it, and probably jump up and down with excitement over it!
It's neat to have some new things in my house that make it more homey and comfortable for me, and it's a blessing to have other staff members who have figured me out, and like to give me not just the things that I need, but also some things that I enjoy.
So excited for you Hannah!! So excited that those wishes have come true!! Wish I could be there to sing along with your playing!! Will you play "It Only Takes a Spark" for me?
