I relate to the feelings of overwhelm and overload upon returning the the states after a long haul in Mexico. It's just so much, so much stuff. Abundance.

You don't get to stop posting just because you are visiting in the US you know! Anyway, I'm <i>tagging</i> you so you have to post. The info is on my blog. It IS cold here! Days are nice but nights are chilly. It was even colder in Merida when we left a couple days ago, proves that myth wrong. I've been driving around with the heater on in the car at night, and wearing sweatshirts! Hey! You don’t get to stop posting just because you are visiting in the US you know!

There are an amazing number of centros de acopio (collection centers) around the city. They even had one at the Mega grocery store as I was leaving on Sunday... that made it easy. I just shopped for my unknown Tabisqueña friends and dropped it in the designated shopping carts on my way out the door. Also dropped off used clothes and Costco goods at the Cruz Roja. Hope that people up in the Bay Area and around California who read these websites will consider pitching in as well. It never ceases to amaze me how the people here who have so little still manage to share something for their neighbors in need.

Certainly we don't have as much here, but it is enough that when we head to the hill country, I feel parched....it feels so arid.. and drink water like it is going out of style. Weird. Are you not jazzed about Sonlight? I am too. We are also doing 1&2 and 5. The 2 small ones are doing Core 1&2 and the 2 biggers Core 5. We are also doing Astronomy, and my FIL is sending down a really nice telescope to compliment the program....will head to an observatory for a field trip. Fun fun fun.
