Since my meltdown on Tues/Wed, I have been trying to take it easy (or do I even know what that means?) One thing I can say is that I can still have a few moments of happiness when I feel like I am really present and appreciating life here. I played with my goat kids yesterday. I sat and strung beads with a villager for an hour. I let my husband be in charge of cooking lunch while I made a fun dessert. We took a villager from our house to a wine tasting party last night. We got there late with only fifteen minutes left of the party, which was perfect for his attention span. The only difficult thing yesterday was that our washing machine broke and can't be fixed until Monday. We have six peoples' laundry piling up here. Wish me luck!
