May 6th-8th

May 6th

We hung out with the girls, played card games, etc. Leah did a Bible study basically on righteousness, it was really good. Dinner, Anitol drove us home (it was too late for the buses) came back to the apartment and played nerts with Shauna and Sara.

I think I've been around Leah too much, her ways are rubbing off on me, lol. I tripped a few times that day and when Anitol was taking us home I tried opening the back door to the van to put my bags in there and well, I ripped half the handle and surrounding plastic off! Don't underestimate twiggy muscles, lol!...thanks Leah

May 7th

Got up early to go to Stella's House 2. We scraped plaster off and cleaned the windows on all 3 floors, we were there bout 6 hours. Came to the house, I did a Bible study on 1 Cor. 13, broke down the chapter and basically told them about God's love and how we are to show the same love to everyone. Had dinner, delicious kidney stroganoff, and caught the bus home just in time.

Meanwhile in Leah's world...well we were really tired that day and a little loopy so we were cracking up about nothing all day long! We barely make the bus back to our apartment, and while on that bus Leah begins to cough a little and starts wheezing! Hence, her new nickname, wheezer. Haha, the man in front of her kept glancing back, she was trying to be quiet but couldn't and we just started cracking up even more! In the midst of her laughing she gets her inhaler out and instead of breathing in blows out, lol! Anyhoo we were really loopy and the whole bus I'm sure thought we were drunk. But it was hilarious!!!

May 8th

Ran some errands, exchanged money, came to the house a little later. Played spoons with the girls, it was a good sized group so it was a blast! The girls love that game. Snarfed down a very yummy dinner to make our bus in time.

That morning coming to stella's house Leah and I stand up as our stop is aproaching, there's a man in between us who looked like he was going to get off too, so Leah gets out, the man goes for the door and closes it! I try to stop him and get by and say opritz iech verog (my stop please, not spelled right) and he won't let me, I tap the bus driver and say it again and he gives me a mean look and puts on the gas, so a few blocks later when the man has to get out i get out and have to walk back to Leah, ugh.

Then that night we have another great experience on the bus back to our apartment, it's very packed which is not uncommon, people sitting in all 12 seats then about 10 or so more people standing up in the small bus. So our stop is getting closer, I get up with Leah a few seats behind me, I'm trying to fight through the crowd of about 5 big men to get to the door, I say excuse me in Romanian, scuzatsima(not spelled right), they look at me and won't let me pass, then I feel the hand of the man right in front of me in my purse! I grabbed it and threw it out of my bag, gave him an evil look and after telling Leah to watch her stuff, pushed him out of the way! I was so ticked! All those men smirking as they weren't letting us pass where all in on it! Ugh!!! Then they close up on Leah and she has to force her way through them as they're laughing and making fun of us, AHHH! anyway, we got to our stop and they didn't get a hold of anything, thank you Jesus! So yeah, that was a great experience ;)
