10 Reasons I have to be thankful Cambodia Edition

Thank God for my Ipod: It doubles as ear plugs when the roosters start crowing at 3 am. I have realized how much I need noise in my life.

2.       Thank God for my brother Doug: he put lots of movies on my hard drive that have entertained the whole team this month. I miss getting to just hang out and watch movies and we definitely got to do a lot of just hanging out this month.

3.       Thank God for the beautiful scenery: I don’t appreciate it near as much as I should, but it is so green here! All of Asia is(the parts I’ve seen anyway)! Definitely not in west Texas anymore.

4.       The ‘o’ sound in my name is pronounced correctly: despite April’s efforts to try to get them to call me Bunny like they did in the Philippines.

5.       Thank God for an outhouse: never thought I’d say that but it gives us moments of privacy. I didn’t realize how much I needed alone time. Living in tight community with 5 other people definitely lacks alone time.

6.       Thank God for smoothies: We found a little restaurant that sells banana, dragonfruit, and apple smoothies got about $.50. They are amazing! This was how I got calories in me since I was avoiding white rice.

7.       Thank God for my sleeping pad: Our packs arrived 2 days late, which meant 2 days of sleeping on a wooden floor. My back really appreciated my sleeping pad now!

8.       Thank God for water pressure: Struggled to actually get my hair cleaned this month. Bucket showers are more for feeling refreshed.

9.       Thank God for quiet Time: I had so much time to spend with God this month! I know I didn’t appreciate it as much as I should have because I have truly missed it this past week during debrief when I was much busier.
