WE ARE FINISHED!
This morning was the end of school for the Conrods for the 2011-2012 school year! And the kids are soooo happy about it! The afternoon was pretty chill... Nandry did some jewelry making, and worked on my beads which are actually sawed down porcupine quills! I saw some jewelry with them in Bamenda, and had asked what they were, and when I learned how easy it was to make my own beads, I just bought a handful of quills and decided to do it myself! The day I drilled my finger I also sawed the quills into long bead-lengths without incident. So today I sanded them down, and made holes in some of them. The inside of the quills is about the consistency of styrofoam, so that step is super easy!
Otherwise, I tried to still take it easy, as I'm still not feeling 100%. And tomorrow I have to get some serious packing done!!!
Beach in just a few days, and I'll be in the States in only 12 days! Crazy but true!
