Weekly Round Up


Pets (+) 1 pet added: Okello. Total pets in Gulu: 6 (Dogs: Jeter, Sophie, Issac & Okello) & 2 cats (Nownow & Daisy). Total crazy pet ladies: 1 (Jessica)

Meals (+) 2 new dishes served: Tomato-Pepper Soup & Roasted Eggplant Pasta. The secret ingredient for both was a habanero pepper, which is a super hot and smoky pepper – Yum!

SPRING (~) A battle with the M&E officer & crappy data from an implementing partner cancel out a great Lira mediation visit and an enthusiastic and productive conflict sensitivity mainstreaming implementing partner.

Café (~) Generator installed and running freezer and internet, and Samson and Babu are put to work cancel out failure of manager to come through on very much and slumping sales. (Is it the new café?)

Gulu overall (~) There’s been no power and no water this week which blows, but it’s started raining which means the Arugula won’t die.

Comment: Another interesting week in Gulu. To quote a recent skype comment “I can’t type now, I’m managing a restaurant, a mediation and an exterminator.” I wanted year 3 to be something different, less boring. Well, I’m far from bored. It’s mostly good, but my already minuscule patience is hanging on by a thread. I need to find time to exhale or I may explode.
