#3 The Battle of the Bug
Good Morning to All, and to All a Good Morning!
It is currently 13:42 Friday, August 31 in the year 2007. After writing on monday I went home and started reading “the Princess and the Goblins.” On Tuesday I started pulling wires for the street lamps for the Office. Then I went home, finished “the Princess and the Goblins,” and started “the Princess and Curdie” (both are very good books and I highly recommend them).
Wednesday my old enemy Montezuma decided to enter the picture, but I chased him away with some Pepto Bismol. At the Office on Wednesday I finished pulling wires. I then finished “the Princess and Curdie” and started “Pilgrim’s Progress.” I did not get far in it because my earlier fight with Montezuma had worn me out. On thursday Nate and I went into downtown Oaxaca to do errands. When I got home I read some more of my book.
At about 5:30 I walked to the Kugler’s to call my family and people I had fail to say goodbye to properly (this took an hour and a half). On my walk home I saw a motorcyclist get robbed by a group of boys. This was very hard for me because I could not help him because I can’t speak spanish and therefore could not do any thing for him (and because I am a feeler). Today Montezuma struck again and it took four times as much PB to case him away.
At the office I have cut and glued books and labeled Bible storie books (achickly they are the pages of the books without words yet). Then I wrote this newsletter.

P.S. Please pray that Montezuma would not strike again, that I would learn Spanish quickly, that God would keep me safe, and for the man who got robbed.
