the title...i had to go there.
sooooo i don't really have a lot of time to write, but i wanted to update everyone (finally!) on the latest from madagascar. training is practically over, only about two or three weeks left till we swear in as peace corps volunteers. crazy. we spent the past several days visiting our sites, where we'll be in december. mine's vohitsara, as my mom wrote in one of the comments, and i like it a lot.
i didn't realize quite how prophetic it would be to title a past entry "mihinana vary aho"...oh gosh we eat so much rice here. that's madagascar.
so tonight we're in tana, the capital, and we're going back to our training site tomorrow...back to living with a host family, long hours of language classes, and getting a break from 10 to 10:30 every morning for snack yesssss.
ps i have a new address, for mail to my site, and i FORGOT to bring it with me here to the internet cafe. so keep sending mail to my training address and it can get forwarded to me at my site until i can get on here to update my address.
alright i gotta go, sorry this update is so short after a month and a half of no updates. i'll work on it for the future. yes. $weet.
send me emails! or mail! mail will reach me faster than emails, believe it or not. so do it to it.

Hey Kathryn, Just after work and we checked your site on the off chance - how exciting to see your update! We know, you may not get this, but it feels more immediate than regular mail so... We are so glad that all is going well and want you to know that we think of you so often. We will try and get some 'snail' mail out to you just to say hello! Wish we could send some mac and cheese, but would you believe WE have to have it sent here??? Thinking of you, full of admiration and sending our love. Beth and Andy
Hi Kathryn! So glad to see your update and glad to think that you like your new site. Can't wait to hear more about it! Dad & I will call at 9 a.m. Saturday (Nov. 17) in case you are there to talk. Hope you enjoy getting back with your host family for the next couple of weeks. Talk to you soon. Stay safe, healthy, & happy. I love you! Mom
Hi Kathryn! What a happy surprise to check your blog on the off chance that you'd had an opportunity to write and there was your new post! Sounds like you are doing well - what an amazing story you will have to tell! I hope to see your mom over Thanksgiving and maybe she'll have more details of your daily life! Take care of yourself!
Love, Aunt Sue

Hi Kathryn! Happy Thanksgiving!! You have probably had your big meal by now. Hope it was good. We miss you here! I thought of having rice in your honor but then decided I could honor you a lot better with chocolate. Looking forward to talking to you on Saturday! Sending lots of love your way and praying for many blessings for you.
Love, Mom
Happy Thanksgiving Kathryn! We know what it is like to be away from family and those you love on special days like Thanksgiving, but we hope that you have been blessed with a day to be thankful for in many other ways. Thinking of you. Love, Aunt Beth and Uncle Andy
