Water

I was mildly sick again this morning (diarrhea) and suspect the fresh cut tomatoes from lunch yesterday. It’s hard to remember not to eat anything fresh when eating out.
On my way to mast this morning, I passed a sister (nun) from the hostel across the street and she asked my when I was going to come visit. Honestly, it hadn’t occurred to me to go visit but I’m looking forward to it now. Speaking of visits, Uma came over today to use the computer (i.e. Internet) and brought me chocolate cake. Seems we both like to bake :-).
My major domestic task today was washing clothes so I had to fetch water for the first time. This is not so bad since the school has a pipe and uses a hose to fill a couple of large tanks with spigots. When there is enough water, I merely have to fill my buckets from the tanks and carry it ~200 m to my house. Though when there isn’t water at the pipe, I’m not sure where I go but I will probably have to walk to the village pipe. Also need to learn how to carry a bucket on my head; can’t see coming to Africa and not learning.
