Monday means back to the grind and getting up early to get to work at Pepe's. Today went by slowly due to the lack of energy and lack of 3 person jobs. I helped Pepe disassemble his roof by removing tiles and wood boards to be replaced with stronger boards. Pepe said this will only be a two day project which seems improbable but we made a lot of progress in just one day. After work I went for a quick jog which ended badly. Not only did I overheat myself but everyone in the town was staring at me like I was an alien. No more exercising... Kellan and Yacarely had a mis-communication with their landlord and needed to move out
of their house today so Meredith and I helped them out. That includes playing with Kellan's soccer ball with some children. We had dinner afterwords at the hotel but unfortunately they couldn't break my 500 cordoba bill -.- I ended up paying with 5USD. Well, let's see if I finish my second project tomorrow. (Pictures: Pepe's mom cooking, a scorpion that stung Pepe, and the initial work of the roof)

Guess scorpions are more every-day routine in El Sauce than "gringos" jogging. Question: was the scorpion in the picture still alive?
ReplyDeleteYes, Pepe went to find the scorpion and it was still alive. He said it was going to die but the person who was stung needs to find it and kill it themselves [probably a myth]
