What to do when your spouse is in another country

If you've ever found yourself hanging around the house while your spouse traverses the world, here are a few ideas of what to do with your time. 



You can run at the track.  Note the shorts.  That means amazing weather for January.
You can pack photo albums that are not going to Senegal with you.  These will be stored at my in-laws.



You can visit the local DQ.  Yes friends, cookie dough is still my favorite.
You can prepare for the Ladies Retreat in February.   This is coming quick.



You can organize your French and Wolof language learning notebook.  I go through these pictures and practice what I am learning in French.  You know helpful phrases like, il a une pomme, which means he has an apple. 







 
  You can drop off the random items that are not being stored at the in-laws and are not going to Senegal with you.  My house is getting emptier every day and I am very acquainted with Goodwill's donation box.








As you can see there are many options for using your time, but the best is to pray. 
 
Dear God, please take care of my husband. Bring him home safely and give him wisdom as he learns more about where you have called us to serve.   Amen.
