23 September 2007 – Sunday

Really sick from 2 a.m. on – it was probably the left-over pizza that I did not refrigerate soon enough. I will not do that again. At least it was not because I ate off the street – it would have been safer. I am just happy to have survived the day. How sick was I – I could not even read. There is a positive side – by the end of the day I had lost 4 pounds – of liquids. I would not recommend this particular weight loss program.

24 September 2007 – Monday

There was still some residue of my illness this morning but at least I felt good enough to read for short periods of time, get up and water the plants, and by noon I almost felt normal. I managed to eat a little during the day but never really felt good. The biggest loss was another day without us reading from the Kitab Mormon.

Mary went to teach her class at the mission office and found that they had cancelled. Someone was supposed to call her but did not. But it was not all a waste, she and Sam went to Carrefore and bought a new ironing board and some paper.
