After a day of relative for most of the day yesterday, here we are again! It's rained ALL night long. Poured would be a better word. It's pouring now. I have NO idea where all this rain is coming from. Everything is wet. All of our clothes are dirty. Actually, let me correct that-- a load or two of our clothes are clean and hanging on the clothesline... but that doesn't help us either. :)
Thank you God for Audio Adrenaline though, because they have a washer and dryer at their Hands and Feet orphanage. So, the guys ventured out to do laundry there. Of course when they got outside TWO tires on the Jimmy are flat... anyway, they worked it out and are headed there now.
I do have to say that I am not above wearing dirty clothes (in fact, I have been doing so for a couple of days now) but everything is wet and stinky. There are no clean towels. Plus Nico started having diarrhea today and already got one outfit messed up, so... I feel like we have no choice. (Plus, probably TMI-- Nia hasn't worn panties in 3 days because she kept getting them wet while “helping” the nannies with the washing...)
One of the other “joys” of all this rain is that the mosquitoes and flies are inside multiplying seemingly by the second. Everyone of us is COVERED in bites-- but we are just trusting that the skeeters that bit us are not the malaria-carrying kind.
Oh, one other tidbit of news I forgot to share the other day-- the dog (Cheilo) got run over by the Jimmy. He's still alive but clearly not feeling too well... the silver lining is that Nico is no longer afraid of him, as Cheilo is no longer nipping at Nico's feet. He can hardly move, much less chase anyone... poor thing.
Alright-- gotta go. We are watching a Disney sing along DVD in French.
