Connect 4 and dirty mop water

Nov 10

Today was a pretty good day. I brought the guys at Rachawadee Boys (where I work) at connect 4 game. It is a pretty good game because they can all play it and it takes some mental concentration to win the game as well as some physical concentration to place the checker pieces into the slot where they want it. They really seem to enjoy playing it too. I also got to teach Sen and Peetaya some English today. Sen is really smart and seems to remember some from other volunteers in the past, but it takes him a long time to say something. It’s difficult for him to move any of his muscles so it always takes him a while to do anything. Peetaya is always asking questions about what things are in English but he has a hard time remembering the words.
After work I went home and had one of the funniest accidental falls that I can remember. I fell off of the stairs. A couple of the girls were cleaning the floor and put the kitchen chairs at the bottom of the stairs. I was on the 3rd step and went to step on the chair that was at the bottom of the stairs and somehow I missed it completely. I fell. I crashed through the chairs and fell on my back right into the bucket of dirty mopwater. I’ll try to put a picture of it up on the website. The other people in the house didn’t waste any time taking pictures of my circumstance. That’s all.
