La Gira . . . Two Down, One To Go
This might be my best email ever. Buckle up y'all I swear... it just gets better every time. You know it's been a crazy week when I take pday on monday. It means I was so busy that there was simply not time to take a break. Shall I jump right into it? Yeah.... why not? Soo..... This transfer we are doing a total of 3 giras (La gira is what we call it when the office travels the mission to put on conferences, generally happens once every 6 weeks and its always the busiest and most hectic week, other than transfer week.) We usually leave on a gira for 3 to 5 days. During these 3 to 5 days I am constantly working to set up conferences or participate or do whatever random last-minute errands need done. Consequently, I am not working in my normal office job, leaving me backed up on references and things like that. Basically, gira = lots of work. In a normal transfer we put on 5 conferences. This transfer we are doing 14. Which, simply put, is a lot of work. For a quick list...
