New things for George
Today was George's first day of orientation for his National Service. He woke up at 3:30am and left his friend's place around 4:30am...he finally arrived at his orientation place around 7:20am. That's Accra traffic folks! He is staying a little bit outside of the city, but not THAT outside-this route would normally take possibly an hour, but not during rush hour. Poor guy, hopefully he'll get a shorter commute soon. He's not complaining, but I am for him!
He isn't sure if he'll actually be working for the Ministry of Defense and will find out his actual posting on Thursday. His desire is to be placed at The Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre (that's a mouthful!). That would be a job much better suited to his degree, talents, experience and desires for the future. It would also offer some pretty great connections, which we may need. So please pray with us that he will be able to work at the Kofi Annan Centre!
As for me, nothing is new. Still waiting and hoping and searching on so many levels. No job luck, but I keep trying. I'm pretty proud of my man, so that's good enough for now.

One of the problems with National Service ...they place you wherever you fit and you are lucky to get yours in your field
