feeling hot hot hot

so today was is a warm day!  i really am enjoying it...


but
the school we were at today had air conditioning in the whole school, except the gym.  we were in the gym.  in fact, there weren't even windows.  we turned on every fan available, regretted wearing jeans, and sucked it up.


i was a little worried because on our way there liz wasn't feeling so hot, haha no, she was definitely feeling hot well.  i went in to figure things out while she waited in the car and i had to break the news there was no air.  let's just say she wasn't excited by the news.


we made it through the day... uncomfortably.




i know i'm being a bit melodramatic.  i don't plan on using the ac in my apartment this year, but i have windows!


i had a box of papers i need to take tomorrow in the igo car so i went by my place before taking the car back so i didn't have to walk the whole way with a heavy box.  as i was walking up with the box i thought, 'i'm putting on shorts for my walk home.'  so i put on shorts and an extra light tshirt and then went and returned the car, but then i was prepared for my walk home.


i'm still enjoying this weather more than the frigidness of winter, it's just kind-of a shock.  


and today we had a teacher who was SO nice!  probably the nicest we've had in a long time.  she just kept praising us and as she left she even said, "it's so nice that you're both bilingual." (her class was a pre-school class who didn't understand english)  which i definitely needed to hear and liz said she did too (even though her spanish is better than mine).


at least i know what to expect tomorrow (we're at the same school)
i'm wearing a skirt


and getting a paleta!   
mango sin chile por favor.  i think i had one of these every week in the spring in mexico... yum!

Kitchen Safety

We moved!  We're in our new place and we just got wifi.  Wahoo! I definitely broke in the kitchen quickly.  I was making a panini type sandwich for a potluck get together so I preheated the oven.  The next thing I knew the fire alarm was going off.  Let me tell you they did not skimp on a very loud fire alarm.  Ahhhhhhhh I opened the oven, which I know you're not supposed to do.  In the moment, I think I needed to see what I was dealing with.  There were definite flames.  Ahhhhhhhh So I called Mike while trying to google what to do.  He was super calm the entire call while I freaked out (it probably helped that he couldn't see the smoke billowing out of the oven).   He said to throw baking soda on it.  I did.  It seemed to fizzle but came back. I searched the apartment for a fire extinguisher (maybe I should have looked for one before this moment). This is while I kept trying to silence the fire alarm (to no avail) and open windows to let out smoke. Then Mike
I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Spring!

Yes, I know it is not spring yet.   Today's the meteorological beginning of spring or something, isn't it? I definitely suffered some winter blues last month (yeah, it's March!). Check out these tulip fields for your Friday! Normann Szkop  took awesome photos while flying over Dutch  tulip fields . ( via ) p.s. Two days later I'm still feeling amazing after my juice cleanse .  Yes, it's possible that's not what it's from, but considering nothing else has really changed (except starting a new month, which I am so excited about), it's getting the credit. HAPPY FRIDAY & HAPPY MARCH!
