Thursday, Sept 24

It felt like a Monday again today after our “vacation,” but today went well overall. The kids told me everything they did on their days off. Lots of them were bored as well because they couldn’t leave their houses; most of them played video games, watched TV, played with other neighborhood kids and stuff like that. So they were ready to come back to school I think. I had to rearrange my lesson plans a little bit because of the days off, but it worked out alright. We went to town again today after school on the bus because our house was getting low on food options after being home for three meals a day for two days. The curfew supposedly started back up again at 6pm, so we hurried to get everything, but there was conflicting news that only the big cities had curfews and places like Gracias didn’t. I don’t think things are communicated well here in situations like this. Either rumors start and spread like wildfire and stir people up more than they should; or they aren’t told anything so people have to guess; or people actually know the truth, but not everyone finds out. Grr..
