Bugs-Broken Glass :: EASTER

WOW- what a weekend. Yesterday was spent at home. Leslie was cleaning and doing laundry as I did work for Fine Designs. In the afternoon we drew some pictures on the balcony and then ate dinner late in the apartment.
We have a few nights in a row of bugs in the evening. They are small winged insects that swarm in masses and then drop their wings and crawl around the floor. Leslie does not like these little guys at all! They interrupted our dinner and Leslie lost her apatite. The focus shifted from eating to removing the bugs from our house. We knew they were definitely attracted to Light, so tried switching lights on outside and off inside. That solved one problem but created another. We could not see them swarming anymore, but they still landed on our arms, legs, and necks. We turned lights on again and they were all over the floor and had lost the ability to fly.
Leslie wanted to know what the locals do with all these bugs. We decided to venture out of our apartment and ask our neighbors. I left the apartment first and Leslie followed shortly after. Click, our door shut and immediately I asked Leslie "Do you have a KEY?"
"NO"
We were locked out.
Leslie closed all the windows and doors to keep out the bugs. Those same doors and windows kept us out too.

Suddenly the bugs did not seem like a big problem any more. The focus now was gaining access back into our apartment. It is amazing how quickly your perspective can shift...

We thought about our options:
#1 we call Doña Luz and have her bring the key. Problem, we do not have her phone number, because our phone were inside. If we had her phone number she may not understand us because she speaks so quickly etc. If we got in touch she lives far away and we do not know if she would even be available to bring us the key, the day before Easter.

#2 we can break a window. Our best option was breaking the window. We decided to break the one from our patio.

Attached is a picture of the broken glass.

This morning we went to Easter Service. Leslie and I sang one song together. After service we went to Randy and Sandys house for an Easter Lunch. We drove our car to their house and the whole ride there we heard a high pitch buzz. Confused we parked the car in front of Randy and Sandys condo, and tried searching the car with a fine tooth comb. Leslie correctly identified the buzz was on the driver side of the car. We listened in the Door, under the hood, in the trunk... We couldnt figure it out.

Turns out, it was a guitar tuner in my pocket! Joy, pastor Ric's wife had brought it before service and unknowingly I had placed it in my pocket where it turned on and started singing to us. We thought something was wrong with the car, turns out it was something wrong with me.

Easter Lunch was delicious. Corn, Green Beans, Mashed Potatoes, Glazed ham and Croissants were on the menu. We missed our families today but it was good to have a foster family, Randy Sandy and their daughter Emily take us in.

Happy Easter to everyone-

WE LOVE YOU

On a different note: Jim from church said that small cars like Chevy Monzas Run Hotter than larger vehicles and the fact that the temperature gauge goes down and the fan comes on shows that the Thermostat is working properly. We still will probably have it checked out but that eased our minds a lot.
