Update

Sorry I haven't posted in a while ;) I am not very good at keeping up with these kind of things.  I got to swim in the ocean yesterday!!!!!  It was wonderful. It was weird though because the water was as still as swimming in a lake, but it was super clear and blue.  Sorry I don't really have any pictures I didn't want to get my camera wet and all I was thinking about was the fact that I was going to get to swim.  We were only there for like an hour and in typical Celina fashion I forgot sunscreen and got burnt.  It isn't super bad but I have got a very good start on my swimsuit line tan.  
The sun is finally shining bright again here, it had been all cloudy and gross for six days straight.  We also get to have the windows open again which makes the world very happy.  It is my firm belief that having windows open boosts the attitude of everyone in the building.  I haven't tested this theory on anyone but my self and my mother but I stand strong in my beliefs. 
I have had tons of free time here (like 24 hours a day) which is kinda weird but at the same time amazing.  It is kind of weird to have zero responsibilities.  
Here is a brief look at what most days look like for me- 
-Wake up sometime in the morningish.  Lay in bed and look through the tiny triangle of window that is not covered by a curtain and try and figure out what kind of day it is going to be.
- Open the curtains and see how close I was.  
- Bible Study 
- Check facebook and all other important internet things. 
- Get dressed and go on a walk.  On my walks I usually just walk downtown and go into a few shops.  I have wanted to take pictures of some of the shops that I have been inside of but as soon as I walk in someone is always either following me around the whole time hoping to convince me to buy something or the shop is small enough for them to stay where they are and watch me the whole time hoping that I show the slightest interest in anything.  
- When I get home I usually hang out in my room the rest of the morning and read or get on my computer.  But mostly just do anything that allows me to sit directly in front of a fan until I can cool down a bit.  
- Katie and I usually eat lunch together and talk for a little while.  
- I come back upstairs and do more of the same thing.  
- At around five when Katie is done working I will come out of my cave and hold an adorable baby, talk to Katie, and occasionally read to Benjamin.  Benjamin and I have an interesting relationship, sometimes he will come into my room and make me read a bunch of books to him, and sometimes when I am in the living room he wants me to read to him.  Other times I will walk into whatever room he is in and he will start to whine cry.  
- A couple times a week I get to talk to some of my people from Missouri.  Which is a highlight of the week.  
-Sometime between dinner time and when Katie gets off work Yvan comes home and the boys have dinner and get ready for bed.  After the boys are in bed Katie will go downstairs to make dinner and I usually go down and hang out with her.  After dinner we clean up which takes zero time because it is just three of us eating and Katie is a really clean cook.    
- After dinner it is usually around 8:45ish and I will go upstairs and workout and shower. Then I read for a while and go to sleep.  

On Saturdays we will usually go out and do something exciting like driving around the island, going out to eat, or something else of equal fun-ness.
Sundays we have church, and Mondays I do laundry (my one accomplishment in the week).
