4/19/2012

   What an interesting time here!  Police, investigators, new crews swarmed our building trying to figure out what had happened to the woman who was killed here.  They now think it was someone she worked with because there was no forced entry.  Don't now if they have anyone in custody but they added two more armed guards to our apartment building.  It is a little disconcerting to come home from the temple and be met by two more armed guards.  To make it even worse, when we came up to the apartment the water was on but the power went off.  It's the first time I have appreciated those street lights that shine in your window at night.
   The woman worker from here asked if she could clean for us because her family has no food - so she came today to mop.  It is difficult for me to trust her but she does a good job.  The engineer that has become our friend came to tell us that his company was going to drill a well for our building right outside the cement barrier.  Then we should have water !!! 
    We went to the temple again last night and already I am thinking how sad it will be not to be able to go to this temple when we leave.  It is such a beautiful, peaceful place.  Last night there were three couples and two other women.  The couples were senior missionaries that work there so it is wonderful to be able to have all of your friends from here in the temple on a least one of the days we go.  Anyone who lives in the Casa has to work in the temple.  They say Scott and I are their most loyal patrons - that wouldn't be hard!  Temple attendance here is not good.  If we can go three times a week it really helps them, so we try to do that.
