This morning I got to go into town to meet the new volunteer and bring him out to the village. It was a nice change of a morning to go in to the office and meet everyone working there and have a look at the quilting project that they have going on.
In the evening I was house watching for John and Kathy, taking care of the doggies as they stayed in Phnom Penh over the night. We had a movie night and then went to bed as usual at 8.30. However, I was woken up at 10.30pm by the dogs running around barking like crazy. So, I grab my flashlight sneak out of bed to see what's going on. I get out in the living room and see a mouse run across the room with the dogs chasing after it. I never thought a day would come when I'd feel happy over the fact that it was 'just' a mouse in the house. It's all a matter of perspective, and here I'm thankful for 'just' a mouse. I calmed the dogs down and snuggle up in bed again. Life is good.
