So every three weeks I have a day off here. A day where I can turn off my radio, sleep in if the persons outside grand central station (my house) allow. I say GCS because I live at the intersection from the front of Emmanuel to the farm and to the other side of campus. So lots of traffic happens…gators, people, cars etc. And if there are kids going to Teguc for appointments they are usually across the road at the office at 4am…talking and laughing. So, it´s a great day off when it´s not so noisy.
Yesterday was a day off. I woke up at 4 but thankfully fell back asleep til like 6:30 which for here is sleeping in. Then I got inspired to cook some pizza and clean up some of my shelves, all before 8:30. Then at lunch I worked on some chicken pot pie.
I know…this is all very very riveting… Welcome to my day off. I typically stay in my house doing a whole lot of nothing. I do my laundry and cleaning the day or night before if I can just so I can do whatever I WANT on my day off.
I watched some 80s movies- Brewsters Millions, Big Business, and Space Camp (I hear your jealousy through the interwebs…) And I read and spent some time hearing what my Father in heaven has to say. It was great. And boring all at the same time. Oh and I also got in my hammock but it is difficult to multitask in a hammock…I think because it is against every ideal of the hammock to multitask. So my hammocking was short lived.
Now I am back at work with the schedules and the planning and the general herding people and children from here to there. We have a high school team here this week and Saturday for Holy Week is a University team then the day before Easter a team comes for 5 days.
I will be returning to Auburn April 10th. So for those of you who are planners hit me up for some dates. My US number isn´t currently working here so you will have to email me or message my Honduran number.
My house…thats my side on the left. The window to the left of the wall dividing the duplex is my room
