Bunch of Stuff

So, it’s Sunday.  Going to see Rodrigo's family today, I think.  Gabi is asleep and Ben is watching Cartoons right next to me.  Mickey and Goofy cartoons in English, the old cartoons.  I think it’s a movie.
So last week was huge.  Ben started school; I was teaching and getting the house in order.  We only have 2 more areas to organize and then the kitchen cabinets.  The good thing is that we still don’t have too many things so it’s not too complicated.  My parents are going to bring up a bunch of pans for our kitchen when they come.  No matter where you go, buying a stainless steel pan to cook in here is very expensive.  Aluminum is the metal everyone uses here.  Not sure how I feel about that.  In the U.S, I thought Aluminum caused Alzheimer’s disease, but everyone uses it here.  So, maybe it doesn’t.  I will have to check the stats! I just asked Rodrigo if there are a lot of people around here with Alzheimers and he didnt know but Ben just said "Hey momma, I just saw one".

What about Egypt huh?  Shows that people really do have a say in the government, but they have to demand it and the timing has to be right.  I have to admit, I have been very removed from the problems in America since I moved.   I don’t know the day to day stuff anymore and now the only channel that broadcasts here is FOX.  Last place I would go for the truth, just a propaganda machine.  The next time that I have a moment in time I am going to get a Randi Rhodes pod cast.  More my flavor.
