One half hour of water to begin the day! As soon as we realized it was on I showered while Scott started washing dishes, then he showered while I finished the dishes and got a batch of clothes in the wash " with the vinegar experiment " just as the water went off. So the clothes are still setting in the vinegar water waiting to be washed. But it was great to get cleaned up a bit..
Yesterday as Scott was sitting in the sicker than a dog and the rest of us were in the building, three young girls and a little one year old boy were walking by so he stopped them and they were talking to him when I came out of the church. I had some gum, of course, so we tried to give them some - they had never seen gum like that and didn't have any idea what it was. Finally the oldest girl took a piece and chewed it and amiled, then the other two took pieces. It was a strong mint gum that is shocking when you put it in your mouth so it was fun to watch their faces. You should have seen the smiles on their faces as the strong flavor mellowed out and they figured out how to chew it. The little boy had fussed all through church and didn't seem to feel very well. He let me pick him up and it felt like heaven! I have missed holding my little grandkids so much.
faces! I just wish these pictures of the church created more of the image it really is. When we went into the 6'x8' primary room the teacher asked if I wanted to see their lights. The only lights were through these metal blind kind of things.
On thing that is interesting here is they have these clocks by the stop lights that tell you how many seconds it will be until the light changes - not that it makes a difference sometimes!
We are getting together packets of infomation to give the stake music people for their training. Scott is so patiently trying to teach me Spanish. I would have my hair pulled out by now if I were him but he seems to have more hair than ever. He was supposed to get it cut today but missed the phone call. It's so long it is getting this wave in the top and back! I'm surprised he doesn't go into shock looking in the mirror with all that bushy hair when he usually keeps it so short. There aren't many of the senior missionaries that have much hair on their heads.
Brother and Sister Despain from Logan got here today to work in the temple. She said they met someone in the airport, a tall blonde guy in his 40's that said to tell us hello. Don't know who that could be.
Brother and Sister Hammon's daughter and her husband are here visiting. It was a fun Spanish class today trying to decipher the phrases that he had picked up at a talk last night by the mission president.
When we got home water had run out of the tap, onto the cabinet and down to the floor - which was covered. Now that is ironic that the water tap was turned on a little because usually there is no water and we come home to an apartment with water all over! Still don't know just how that happened.
