Flexible, Flexible, Flexible

Day 10, (1st day of Greece conference)
FLEXIBLE, FLEXIBLE, FLEXIBLE!
Today we woke up to a fantastic view of the Aegean Sea from our balcony, thankful to be in Greece. We were both trying to figure out how to get ready with so little stuff without our luggage and also figuring out the trick of a small European tub with just a sprayer. We took baths but within ½ an hr. we were sweating again from the heat… Jason headed off to work with the youth and I headed off to make phone calls about finding our luggage. Obviously I could not cut hair today without any tools so that made it hard to do my job. The sign up sheet is already completely full. Somehow some of the people in Hungary talked to some here and when I stepped into the conference, adults seemed to know me. Kinda weird… The airport said they had found our luggage and it would be delivered to a bus stop sometime today or tomorrow. When we asked which of the three in town they responded “yes.” Meaning any of them…This is normal here.
I then went to meet my 7-9 yr. old kids. We have 19 and they are cute. We have to constantly keep them busy and stay on our toes but they are very good kids to me. I think their favorites today were music (they do a play for the parents at the end of the week), cheetos for snack, and pool time.
PTL, our luggage did come today about 5:oo (17:00 here) and it was the first time I saw Jason since we both are very busy doing our own full schedules with our age groups. He seemed like he’s very happy and enjoying his kids. He went to take a quick swim in the Aegean Sea before he had to go back to the youth.
I went with 5 other people into the little town for gyros and to walk through the town since this would probably be my only night free (the + of losing luggage). The gyros were the best I’ve ever had, they were huge-1 filled me up, and only cost $2.25. Great deal!
Tomorrow I start “back to work.” I have a very full day of haircuts, but I love it b/c that’s when I get to build some relationships with the M’s. Pray for my shoulder though. It’s been giving me a good deal of pain and isn’t staying in joint very well. The few days off from cutting have been good for healing so I hope it will hold the next 5.
I’m excited for shampoo and a clean face and teeth tonight- woohoo!
