Just a little bit of chaos...

This week has been pretty busy at the clinic. Sheree was gone for the first two days so I was on my own for the first part of the week. I had quite the adventure getting home from the clinic that first day...I caused quite a bit of confusion, but it was actually pretty funny once Conchita stopped worrying. Today was unbelievably busy and Sheree was really sick. She has been so sick all week that the last patient that I took care of today was her. I had to stick an IV in her and pump her full of fluids and phenergan, but she is feeling a little better now.
My mom has been asking for pictures of where I'm living so here are some pictures from around the house...
This is the view of the neighbors from the stairs up to Sheree's room.

This is the courtyard outside, and the door across the way is my room.


This is my room...I would have cleaned it before I took the picture but that doesn't sound like me now does it?

This is Mario and Daniel playing futbol in the courtyard.

This is me with Meli, Linda, Fernanda, and Vivian. We hung out together all weekend. They don't seem to mind that they have to repeat everything at least once before I understand. Children have a better understanding of unconditional love than most folks.

Now you know you can't elude to "chaos" and not explain the confusion on the way home from the clinic on Monday. I'm waiting for "the rest of the story".


Are these girls related to your host family?

Dad wants to know if you have help from a maid with your room?
Dad says he wants to know about the caves- Are these the ones with the oldest known skulls? How big are the caves and how deep?
Love
MOM and DAD

I agree with your mom - you need to spill the whole "chaos" story as only Jen can do it.
