5/29/2013

     I should blog in the morning - then I would actually be alert enough to do it!  Then again I don't know if I'm that alert in the morning either.. On Tuesday Scott went to the temple in the morning while I made food for the week.  After lunch we picked up the Grays and headed out to Los Llanos.  It had been raining on us all of the way there and everywhere you looked in the cane fields water was sitting. Last week was really wet but this week they were flooded even more.  Driving on the roads was like fording a river!
The front of the car really adds to the picture, doesn't it?  All of the roads were covered with standing water and the sidewalk in front of the church was completely flooded over.  Sister Gray had on her sandals so she just walked through the water but the rest of us waited for 1/2 an hour for the water to go down a little. 
    I forgot one of the funny things that happened on Mother's Day here.  The little girls, Eliana and Caty were so excited when we picked them up on Sunday because they had a present for me.  Here it is:
Every Sunday they have to feel my legs!  It was sweet of them to think I could use these and where they got the money is a good question.  However, if I had legs like that I wouldn't need compression hose...
   Today we got to the temple to go to the 10:00 session just to be told that they had a young man taking out his own endowments and so the session would not start until 10:30 at the earliest.  There were only me and another woman and three men counting Scott.  No one else to be the witness couple again. 
   We had our two lessons at Las Caobas - minus the millers (bugs) this time.  They gave us a room that opened up into another room so it was a much better set up having the two rooms with the six tables and 14 keyboards.  Splitting the group has made it so much easier to teach.
