It's funny - when I signed on to update our blog - there was a note about the bugs they had fixed. Those particular bugs were online computer glitches...the BUGS I'm talking about are blood sucking, human loving, tiny, voracious, vampiric little critters that are driving me - well, buggy!!!
Do you know it is distracting to type when you just want to ITCH!!??!!
I helped string lights here at the camp this morning for a women's retreat that has rented the facilities. It was nice working with Felize and Carmencielo, two really nice men. Anyhow, I had already sprayed myself down with BUG spray but I guess they cannot read -or smell or did not care! We were all getting mildly swarmed with the little biting buggers! The worst were the bottle flies, tiny little black flies that look like gnats but suck blood - and their bites swell up and itch for at least 2 weeks ---- argh! The other men went to put on long sleeve shirts while I tried to drown myself in bug spray - yuck! If you are not aware - the bottle flies are the ones that can leave a larva inside you which gets rather large and really painful... Yeah, so long sleeves can help - especially if they also cover your face! Ha! Yeah - long sleeves -did I mention it is hot here?
Anyhow, here are some other fun facts here in Belize
- it's in the 90's
- the water in the Caribbean looks FANTASTIC - No, have not been in it. just saw it, from the van, where it was hot, in the 90's
- steel has gone up 30% --- so the house is costing more...
- there is a shortage of wheat flour --- Rev Tzib was denied buying 5 lbs of flour for the pastors' retreat - when he went back the next day and tried again - they agreed to sell him only 3 lbs...!
- did I mention that it is in the 90's - and - humid...?
go figure!
Hey, seriously - Just keep praying for the ministry here - this is nothing that is unsual for anyone else - so I'll deal with it.
