04 June 2007 – Monday

I think I am mentally numb – I find my sitting down at the computer and not being able to remember what I did yesterday. (I am writing this on Tuesday morning!) I am not sure if that means I am losing my memory or that I did not do anything worth remembering.

We did not read from the Kitab Mormon – one of the few mornings when we could have that we didn’t. It am afraid it is my fault – I can not remember what I thought was so important but when Mary suggested it I said ‘no.’

We had an easy day for English. We only had the morning class. I took the first part and had them first fill out a simple form reporting how well they did speaking only English on Sunday. Most of them seem to be trying to not speak Indonesian but a couple are not making a good effort. I am hoping that by filling out this form each morning it will help them remember and want to report success. I am going to track their progress and see if it relates to how often they manage to speak English instead of Indonesian.

Next I reviewed the Simple Present and Present Progressive tenses and then had them write 10 sentences – 5 using SP and 5 using PP.

Judi comes to teach afternoon class – We take Mary home to wait for cleaning lady – Sam and I go to Mission Home and the traffic is so bad that we do not go to SoGo. It takes a long time to get back to the apartment. We can have a second key to the church for Sam.

Take nap, get Pizza, read Kitab Mormon, Mary cleans up paper work, I write letter to president Jensen – register for Indonesian Missionary site.
