Typical morning

(Jeana) The sun rises really early here.  Light starts over the mountains before 5.  This makes the days start earlier.  Today is a typical day.  By 7:30 I have washed a load of laundry and hung it out to dry in my "pila" (outdoor laundry basin).  I have broom swept the entire exterior of la casa, the entire interior of the la casa and have scrubbed the floors in the main part of la casa.  Made coffee and checked email.  Started breakfast.  Had some sweet time with 3 of the kids that live here.  Raul just showed up and we are going to file all the window glass today so I gotta get off here.  I'll blog later about this filing process.  Basically, there are 23 windows en la casa and there are 13 panes of glass in each window and each pane must be sanded . . . . hmmmmm.  Somehow, I'm sure there will be a trip into "town" required which will derail the entire project for today . . . that's how it goes here.  Every task is a story.
