Have you ever had one of those days that feel just "off"? I am having one of those OFF days today. I am completely exhausted and wondering how I will make it through the rest of the day without collapsing. I do however see God working in all that I am doing and I want to share some of the Kenya updates with you and also give you a glimpse into the blessings I have had this week.

JENN'S LIST OF BLESSINGS

1. I had $20 donated toward Art for Africa yesterday after telling a client about the mission and trip. It was so encouraging to see her give so willingly without me even asking. She also pre-ordered 2 necklaces after seeing one on me. I was on cloud 9!
2. A local coffee shop has asked if they could put out a jar for donations for our trip! What a great opportunity to educate the community on the issues the people of Mumias are facing daily!
3. We are nearly set for running our funding through a local non-profit, this way we will be able to give charitable contribution receipts to those who donate!
4. My Great Aunt called me to tell me that she felt lead to send our family a check!-ok this one may not be related to Kenya, however this check will enable my husband and I to have dates and keep our relationship thriving! Something we really need.
5. We had 2 calls for cleaning today that I was able to give to my newest cleaner (who is also in need of work to support her family). It feels so good to be a blessing and pass on the blessings to others!
6. The Art for Africa website is up and running! It needs some tweaking, but check it out! You can donate, become a sponsor, or even purchase a necklace online now!
7. OH and this one is BIG! I am able to eat chocolate again! I had given up carbs for a week to test how my chronic fatigue and pain might be connected with sugar and carbs...and now I am re-introducing carbs starting with Chocolate! Oh it makes me sooooo happy!

I think I better go have some chocolate now! And work some other things before my family time begins tonight.
