I'm an Oreo

I’m an Oreo
April 2
Today was quite the day. Pastor Kibet and I finally got the bulletin printed after messing with the printer for over an hour, and then we went to town. Now we happened to get a ride on a motorbike. No not two motorbikes, only one. Yes, Pastor Kibet and myself plus the driver were on the bike.  AH yes you can do math and yes you are correct, 3 of us on one little motorbike. I was in the middle, therefore I was an OREO!!! It was the highlight of my day to be honest.  Halfway to town the bike stopped working and it needed fuel. Did we stop for fuel? NOOOO We got off and the driver laid the bike down and did something and then he started it again. It was like magic.  All of a sudden it stopped then it started again. Once in town we walked to the place where we were going to get the bulletin copied, but that shop was closed, so we just went to another one where it turned out to be cheaper to copy. YEAH US.... After that we walked on over to Iroko Twigs Hotel for a bite to eat, and then we got another ride on a motorbike, but this time I was with Mike and Pastor Kibet and Jesse went with another fella. 
Once I got home I got the bulletin folded for tomorrow’s service.  See, Lisa isn’t the only one who can do the bulletin. Only mine is in East Africa and is the only one in Kitale that I know of. LOL  (Lisa, I knew it was a lot of work, but I didn’t really realize until I started doing it myself. You, my friend, are amazing to do it every week.!!!!)
Now my biggest worry is getting this bulletin set up on another program so someone from the church can continue it after I leave. This is going to be difficult to get accomplished because I need a book that tells me how to use another program. I’m not as brilliant as Lisa. Not exactly sure how I’m going to do it, but I have a plan. Only plan A, no B is in the works yet. LOL
I was told the nicest thing today. Pastor Kibet told me that he wished I had another younger daughter, so he could marry her and he could be my son. NOW isn’t that the sweetest thing you’ve ever heard?  He’s such a sweet man, I wish I had another daughter so he could marry him. But alas I only am blessed with one lovely daughter and she is now 30 years young.
