The plumbing in our house stopped working in our house the other day so we couldn't do the dishes. No big deal right? Well there were millions of ants everywhere and we couldn't clean anything to start making lunch and we were starving. I'll say it again, there were ants everywhere! So we didn't know what to do. Then the doorbell rang. It was an old man and right when I came to the door he immediately started talking to me in Spanish a million miles an hour. I had no idea what he was saying to me. So I told him in Spanish that I didn't know what he was telling me. He then began to tell me that he was hungry and that he needed money and hadn't eaten in 5 days. Oh gosh. I couldn't just go and get some food for him, we needed every piece of food we had. (Food isn't that plentiful here). So I told Kandice what to tell him in Spanish to go away. I felt so bad and I held back some tears. I just feel so badly for poor people and I wish I could help them all.
We (well I should say the rest of the girls) eat mayo on everything...Don't ask me why but they do.
I still haven't finished my lesson plans yet. It is pretty overwhelming. I still have to make the yearly lesson plans for all of my classes except for one and the 2 weeks of detailed plans for the rest, by Monday. Let me tell you, it's time consuming.
I have only been here for 6 days and it feels like a century. I already can't wait to go home :S

The water problem is an easy fix. It kind of happens all the time. Loida should be able to show you guys how to do it and then you can fix it as soon as it happens. No big deal once you know how. We went like 4 days once without water because we did not know at first. Not fun! Oh and sorry about tha ants! I feel for ya!
