Hallelujah!

I have hot water! The hotel manager told me the other day that they were trying to get running water by the end of the summer, and the bathroom has a shower and sink and stuff, but the water didn't work. So yesterday I get home and the water containers are gone from the bathroom. I figured he was just refilling them or forgot to bring them back or something. Then, there's a knock on the door and the manager tells me the running water now works. So I go to take a shower, figuring that at least now I can use the shower instead of trying to splash water over myself (I was asked the other day if I needed a cup to help since my hands are so tiny and I wouldn't be able to splash much water). I turn on the shower and was so surprised when hot water came out! I was soooo happy!
I didn't do much over the weekend, and Monday was a holiday so I spent most of the day at Jackie's. I watched/tried not to watch my lunch get plucked and bled and hacked to pieces. I apologized to the chicken while eating.
Yesterday, I went to the vocational school where they are training students to be tailors. There were only a few students there because they are waiting to get materials so they can do their exams. The one girl had her 3 month old baby on her back. She had to stop every so often to feed the baby or change it. I can't imagine having to go to school with a baby. That would be so distracting!

I give up on trying to call people. It's expensive, and I keep getting cut off. Email me if you want to talk. It's free and easy and no getting cut off. Sorry!
