Latrines and other things

Somehow my latrine project has moved along very well this past month! It’s surprising because I was imagining so many different things that could go wrong during the construction process: the families wouldn’t dig the holes, we wouldn’t find the materials, or the workers would be busy or lazy; doesn’t it sometimes seem like anything that can go wrong will go wrong? But the holes are dug, the cement is poured, the tin roofs are ready and waiting for the walls to go up. And all of this started just a few weeks ago when the grant money arrived. Now I hope I haven’t jinxed myself.
