another day off

Today we are all hanging out. And praying the power stays on long enough to get a load of laundry done, pump enough water to fill our tank, and answer some emails. That would be a good day after this week. Sometimes it takes very little. Yep, we are all at home on a Wednesday morning.....weird. The result of what we like to call "last minute holidays" since we usually find out about them the day before. Darn moon tends to work like that. Sort of annoying since my English class was scheduled to have their final exam today. Oh well. Plans foiled again. Flexibility required. And already had my first student visitor this morning who is worried about the exam and is hoping for some tutoring at the teacher's house. Looks like class will stretch on yet another week. At least it is a bit windy so less sweltering today. In other weekly news, our house has become the place to be for all your water toting needs since the storm last week knocked out the government water in our neighborhood. A bit exhausting with the formality required for greetings every guest no matter what you happen to be doing at the time but also great opportunity for some portrait practice with some adorable kids.
