So I didn't have much to say about today, until about 2 hours ago. We came home from dinner to a waterfall happening from a pipe that extends outside our house onto the pavement in our driveway. I think the pipe is designed for this sort of thing (in case another pipe breaks or something, the water has somewhere to go). Anyway, we walked inside and upstairs and realized the water had gotten in the ceiling and was leaking and dripping everywhere. We had to put buckets under the holes where water was leaking out of the ceiling. It took 18 girls, several guys, and a few hours, and about 50 towels to push all the water from the upstairs downstairs and out the front door. Needless to say, it was quite hilarious, and the pictures speak for themselves.
PS- Didn't this happen to me once before, last semester?
The only good picture I got of the water dripping from the ceiling, AND the puddle on the floor. This was in the early stages. Eventually the water was EVERYWHERE.
Notice the water dripping from the ceiling.
Marykate and I cleaning up!
Needless to say, it was a pretty eventful night. Today was good- had two classes and taught one workshop. Today we did the last of three workshops at one school, and that's a good feeling to have a whole school done! Only 4 more schools to finish up!
sending love love love!

Hi Ej, Congratulations in completing your teaching assignment at your first school. I'm sure the children learned alot of useful information they can share with their peers and families. Sorry to hear about the leaking water, but it is good that you had so many hands to contribute to the clean-up. I am sure the comraderie made the whole situation much more tolerable and almost kind of fun. Certainly this year you have had the opportunity to develop into quite the expert water sopper. Hopefully your soggy dorm days are all behind you now. It is a wonderful and endearing part of your character that you can find the humor in these sorts of annoyances. That sense of the ridiculous will serve you well in your life. Have a super cool and very dry Wednesday. Love you Sweetpea. Ish
Glad we talked a bit yesterday - will get another card today. What a wet time you had with the water clean up! I can hear the laughter now . . . another great and unique memory! Hope you got what you needed to fill out for Morocco done - speaking of, Gentry (computer guy) sends you his best and wishes you a safe trip. He said his aunt and uncle are part of NAVS in Colorado - wasn't quite sure exactly what they do. Everyone is thinking about you as you prepare to leave and I love that Hope is scheduled to take you to the airport - excellent decision. Have a wonderful day, Honey. Momma
