Spicy Uno, lots of things to do and juggling chickens

 Here are a few things that've been happening here in Mexico


There was a game of "Spicy Uno" where the rules were similar to the ones we play at home:
When the following card is played:
7 = Change your hand with anyone
0 = All change hands
6 = Slap the deck, last one must draw2
4 = No one can speak. If you do, take one card per word (yep even when you have "Uno")
4 = Now you can speak again
Oh and when you have a card in your hand that matches what's on top, you can play it at any time
This makes the game super fast and very fun. It lived up to it's name "Spicy Uno"

Kids all got COVID Booster shots

Kids got haircuts

I fixed a few things

I did my laundry (well I paid a business $6 to do it)

There was a safety meeting all about earthquake preparedness with all the houseparents
(it went on for hours)

I helped one of the girls sweep a bit
(they sweep every morning and evening, there's a ton of things growing here)

I helped put the finishing touches on a bathroom remodel
(they did most of the work, these are three showers)

A teenager played connect the dots on my "connect-the-dots" tattoo on my back

I placed my very first Amazon order in Mexico
(It's due in 3 days, I hope it shows up!)

Some of the material for our concrete wall project showed up
(Unfortunately the concrete truck can't get back to where we need it, so we will use a mixer)

I found these awesome chickens and now I just need to figure out how to juggle.
So many important things to do here!
