Family news

Stomach flu going through the family...first Ruby then Joy and now Lolo...mild case thank God.

Ruby and Joy switched from Chano's Baptist church to a Pentecostal one run by her second cousin...Ruby will be performing a dance there today with the other kids.

To me, it's a waste of time...never listened to sermons even in English...I go to Mass to meet Jesus in the Sacrament, not to be entertained...

Friday night, the white puppy, who is now old enough to go exploring, fell into our fountain...luckily in the shallow part, but she couldn't get out and her yelping woke me up.
I wasn't sleeping too well...mama cat moved her kittens out of the closet in the spare room into our bed earlier that night.
Yesterday, we persuaded her to keep them in a crate in our bathroom...so far so good...their eyes are open, but not wandering yet.

the neighbor across the street died...he had a bypass done three years ago, and then angioplasty to his legs, but the other night had a heart attack and died. The street is now blocked off for mourners. Funeral later this week, when their overseas family arrives.
His wife runs a shop that sells dishes at the Palenke...

now that the new Palenke is open, the traffic no longer has to detour around our house so it's a lot quieter here.

Oh yes: Lolo is waiting for the Paquiao fight later this morning...the government is trying to schedule the "brownouts" so that everyone can watch it.
