Back to a busy life

Dear friends,
I didn't get a chance to update the previous week's note; I had gotten into a new volunteering routine. I spent about half of last week helping at home, including quite a few tasks of repair and maintenance in addition to cooking and cleaning, and went out to volunteer at the office of a Catholic church 3 days. I couldn't reject the request of a friendly pastor to take charge of his office work (including weekly bulletin, accounting & payroll) until he finds a replacement for the staff member who left last week. This work should keep me busy for the next few weeks. I'll also be moving this Tuesday - to another Missionaries of Charity house in the Bronx. I hope to be there for about 3 weeks. As I'll have to travel a lot between the new home in Bronx, the church in mid-Manhattan, and the old home in lower West-side, I'll be having a tight schedule that can be maintained only by using public transportation.

Thanks to the availability of wonderful nutritious and healthy food at my present home, in just 2 weeks I have regained much of the weight and strength lost during the 7 weeks of fasting.

I have caught a glimpse of what some concerned friends have done on my behalf, and in the coming week I should definitely spend some time to read the details, thank and comment. Thanks again for your concern and support!
