We're just back from a weekend retreat, a wonderful time away at the beach - life as it's supposed to be when you're living in the tropics, but, alas, so rarely is. Not only did we have the ocean, and the pool, and friends, and a wonderful speaker, but we had 24-hour electricity that we did not have to worry about generating ourselves. Oh, and the greatest luxury of all - yes, ladies and gentlemen, I speak of hot showers! So wonderful. I felt so good after my first one, Friday afternoon, that I could hardly stay awake in the session that evening. Partly, yes, that was because I was exhausted from a morning of doing parent-teacher conferences in three languages, but partly it was just feeling so relaxed by the hot water.
Even so, it was good to get home.

This would be an example of that "wondering if I could cut it in your life" I was telling you about... not the retreat in the tropics part, but the frequent cold showers part. (Teaching Jr. High students isn't for the meek and fainthearted either....) :-)
Well, there are plenty of things in your life that I'd have difficulties with, I'm sure - like the cold weather, brrrrr... :-)
