Dear Friends and Family,
Before the teachers arrive on the Sunday afternoon before the seminar begins on Monday, there is much of this:
Many beds in the hostel, in the rooms upstairs above the offices, and in the guest house, need to be made with clean sheets.
Preparing beds for approximately 30 teachers and 4 volunteers --- you do the math -- it's a lot of sheets and a lot of work.
But after the seminars, when the teachers and volunteers leave, those ________ (how's your multiplication coming ?) --- MANY dirty sheets need to be washed.
Which always resulted in a couple of days of this back breaking, hand and arm irritating, work.
That was then, ... this is now !
On the left, you see a toilet, one of 4 which were at the back entry of Mwangaza's office building. Now there are only 3 available, as the picture on the right shows the 4th being occupied by one of the newest members of Mwangaza's workers, a very welcome and appreciated electric washing machine !
But some "That was then, ..." circumstances,
are still "that was then ... "
