Drizzle

Food!!!!

Drizzle has been on and off since Sunday  .... not like it's a big deal; only a couple of drops and then the sun comes back.  It should have been alot heavier but all our hopes for a rainy winter blew off with the wind. Luckily this meant that our library staff barbeque went ahead without hitches. It was fun. Sr Maria invited us to her garden where Ronza and her family got the barbeque going. The rest of us helped by eating the food. It was a good and relaxing afternoon out of the office.

In the meantime the country was set for 2 Earthquake drills. One was at 11am and the second at 7pm. It's the first emergency drill held on a national level. The govt. is expecting a real big one with 7,000 dead and 17000 injured. There's no hope for those in the Old City because the houses are too many and the streets too narrow. But I still got my earthquake emergency backpack ready: torch, medicine, documents, water, a whistle. I've got only 20 seconds to run for shelter.

Haven't managed to get an appointment with my dentist yet. Must get the implant fixed before the gums close up. You cannot imagine how difficult it is to get simple things done over here.
