(Happy Birthday, Mom!) These are our beloved barn owls that screech really loudly from our roof all night. We're seriously considering purchasing something, such as a fake owl, to scare them off. The day went well -- class, and then went to the grocery store Santa Isabel to mail some postcards -- $2 each! I ran into Nadia, which was really fun because I hadn't seen her in several days -- and I won't see her for several more because I'm going to a retreat this weekend. Meredith and Elsa got home from Tarma, and before Bible study, Meredith and I ran an errand in Plaza San Miguel. While Meredith was getting something photocopied, I got us two mint chocolate frappes from McCafe in McDonald's (don't judge - they're delicious). Then we went to the women's Bible study with all the English-speaking teachers/missionaries. After some Skype phone calls and a little reading, I went to bed, exhausted again. I'm thinking that the exhaustion is still stemming from the language barrier and how I'm always working really hard to listen to things in Spanish and translate them in my head. Meredith she had that problem for the first few months she was here, and she ended up falling asleep at her desk at work every afternoon.
