I am back
Well sorry I have not posted anything for a while. No real reason for not posting anything, other than just being lazy. I wish I had some new great story, but nothing too great to tell. Let me see, I have an infestation of mosquitoes. Now this is not some silly little infestation. I manage to kill more than 50 a night when I forget to apply bug spray, and when I remember to apply bug spray I only get 20 kills.
Let me see, oh I have decided that my yard needed to be tilled up. I was mowing it with a machete, but my host family and village was constantly giving me crap about my yard. So I finally broke down last week and started turning my yard. It was not finished when I left today, but i am more than half way done. Now my yard while not huge it is decent size. I would say square footage wise it is about the size of a basketball court. So right now it is half turned and the rest I cheated and mowed right quick with my machete. I will finish when I get back.
I have also been managing to read a hand full of book. I would highly “All Things Great and Small” by James Herriot. It is hilarious. I love Sigfried, and I know some of those guys. Maybe it is just the mechanic in me and having to deal with truck drivers, I have had some of the same experiences as James in dealing with people and I can so relate. So yea go read it. It should be silly cheap. I don’t know when it was written but picking it up at a second hand shop should be no problem.
Ok so I don’t have a lot more to say, so it is your turn ask questions PLEASE!!
Later,
Matt

I LOVE James Herriot! In my Animal Science days, he was my inspiration in the midst of all the cold, slimy, smelly situations I found myself in regularly. Glad to hear you’re still alive. Good luck with your yard!
