Living in the Yurt: Hope Foster Home

Possible titles:
Cold shower
Count your blessings

Ever willingly take a cold shower? Probably not, after all why would you? When you can take a hot one instead. Much more comfortable.

When we arrived in the yurts yesterday, we tried out the hot water to no avail. I decided to skip my daily shower to avoid the discomfort. I experienced said discomfort while in Guatemala, and wanted to hold off on reliving that moment. The girls who did brave the cold shivered the night away in the frigid yurt. There is nothing quite like a cold shower.

We spent our day playing with kids today at an orphanage. One in particular caught my heart. Shroger. If I wasn't living off an intern salary and living with two other college girls, that little guy would be on the flight home with me. I absolutely fell in love.

After spending the day with my little buddy I certainly needed a shower. He took me into the sand box so I had sand everywhere. I couldn't skip a shower another day, for my sake and the sake of those around me.

I got myself mentally prepared to take another cold shower. I could do it. I'd done it before. I could do it!!!!!

I gathered my things from the yurt and made my way to the Arctic shower everyone was talking about. Here goes nothing.

I turned the lever. Sure enough, cold.

But wait.....it was getting warmer!

It's crazy how much we take something for granted, like hot water. Every time I turn on the water back home I never wonder if it will hot. I know it will be.

Remember just how blessed you truly are. And if you ever feel yourself forgetting, simply take a cold shower.

Love,

Casey

  23. بسیاری از مردم عاشق خوردن ماهی هستند، اما بوی ماهی در یخچال بسیار ناخوشایند است و در واقع می تواند سایر غذاها را آلوده کند. کلید خلاص شدن از شر بوی ماهی در یخچال این است که یخچال را خالی کنید، همه چیز را کاملا تمیز کنید و از محصولاتی برای جذب بوهای باقی مانده استفاده کنید. با این حال، جلوگیری بوی ماهی در یخچال همیشه ساده‌ترین راه است، و می‌توانید این کار را با در بسته نگه‌داشتن همه ظروف و کیسه‌ها و با استفاده از مواد اولیه قبل از خراب شدن انجام دهید.

  34. Thanks for the post. Very interesting article. In general, in my opinion, traveling is something for which it is really worth working and earning more. Even if there is something to save, but to travel to other cities and countries. Even a short trip for a couple of days charges with positive, leaves pleasant memories and gives strength to work further. ulive.chat
