Dec 9, Wednesday

what a busy but extremely productive day

started the day by doing the gargage sale i decided to hold at the kid's school ... well , I thought the parent's who dropped thier kids off would come but it was the kids who bought all the stuff

and the doc and nurses fromthe medical center !! too funny !!!  they had a blast and in an hour it was all over and I went home to do the million other things

taught a nun in the morning and she is a super student. i told her to teach her friend who is also a nun and they are studying together !!  she is sooooooooooooo cute...gente do ceu ...she is cute and learing English !!

 taught one class in the afternoon and the kids are doing great. i am proud of them. one of the girs is struggling a little but they all eventually "get it".  I am having them take extensive notes - both in english and is spanish. and i told them to hang on to them til they get to their SAT's.... they will need those notes one day !

so - since the garage sale went so well, I decided to have one at the same location every day for the next 2 weeks.  i put up signs all over town.  form 7:30 to 8:30.  and each day has a specialty - one day is clothes, the next plants,. the next fishing stuff, thenext Christmas stuff. e por ai vai !!

i also made a cake to sell.  easy fast good money maker and the chocolate is creamy delicious ( have tyo try my wares to make sure they are up to snuff ....) Ughhhhhhhhhhhh right ....
Did 3 loads of laundry in between all this craziness. Also got 4 guys to help Les move stuff.  He asked as I was leaving the house to post my signs for my garage sales all week. So, when I ran into the garbage guys, I asked them to stop over the house and went on my way posting signs. the guy was in a hurry, but i told him- only one minute and you will  be done. there was
1. a perfectly good but too small for us water heater
2. a dryer that decided not to work one day for no really good reason
3. a shed that was quite heavy and needed to be moved

well, as murphys law would have it - when they came they asked for Blanca and Les said I wsa out. so they left and went to look forme. i amzooming from one location to another, Mary tells me she will root some plants if i bring her pots, so i am taking some good soil and pots to her at the store. les decides to go to the beach with Rex since the waves are gigantic these days ....when the guys find me, i come back with them and find 2 more guys along the way to help out. we arrive - no Les. I am confused but we get the dryer. we get the water heater and I have no idea where to put the shed. so we move it to where it used to be !!  guys leave and i go back to post posters at more stores ... when i get back i ask les if the shed is in the right place. what did i mention about Murphy ??? Pois eh. so i get the last 2 guys to come back over and we all move it to the right place. I give the guys pineapples and american chocolate and many thanks.

rip tide - see it ???our house is the tall white one

Les is not in a good mood these days. I think he is depressed and i think he is constantly exhausted. and watching your wife go at a million miles an hour and LOVING every second of it ...well ...he is not happy. a little frustrating from my end - I am getting a lot of people involved in many different projects...all great projects and all fun !!

did I mention my mom did an awesome job shopping? everything is absolutely  positively wonderfully perfect
