New Paint and Peanut Butter & Nuttella for Lunch

We arrived this morning to a newly painted office and had to put the room back together. As Sameth came to help we told him it has been a few weeks since he practices his moving skills, so he helped us put the desks and tables back into place.

We had less  pressing emails and calls today, but still had a few with attorneys. We did, however, have another visitor show up at our office. Elder and Sister Meinzer had Patrick from the Asia Area LDS Charities office in Hong Kong. Patrick and the Meinzers wanted to talk about a LDS Charities project with chickens in the provinces. They would like to establish a stipulation that members can receive chickens (four hens and one rooster) to start a business, but only after competing a "Starting and Growing My Business" Self-Reliance course. We totally agreed. They think these people will do better in caring for a business if they have learned these principles, and they also want them to be for a Cash project, not just for family meals.

After the visitors left we had about ten minutes to eat an apple with Nuttella before an hour and a half  on line training with the Asia Area Self-Reliance team. We were pretty hunger when two o'clock rolled around and we hadn't eaten lunch yet. We again pulled out the Nuttella, along with a loaf of bread, peanut butter, and jam. (Yup! This is one of our regular lunches here in Cambodia!)

We have (you might have guessed) another holiday tomorrow! This is the King's Coronation Day or something. We will take the day off from the office, do a batch of laundry, go grocery shopping, go help with a YSA activity in Steung Mean Chey in the afternoon, then tomorrow night we get together with  all the senior missionaries for the beginning events of a three day Seniors conference. We think this is a great way to celebrate Halloween.
