Friday morning at 8 AM and the maid is here already. I wasn't ready for her. She brought her daughter instead of her crazy son Mario, which is a blessing, as I don't know if I could have remained out of my room long if he were here.
Later: AmNet, the ISP, came as soon as I wrote the above and installed the cable modem. It was the usual mess with the language thing thrown in – and they managed to disconnect the TV signal. We called them back. But, I'm online and all is right with the world. I was then checking my email and the maid took up residence right next to me and hung some sort of chemically treated wash right outside the door.
I retreated to my room with a headache for most of the day until she left. Every time I came out of the room and put down a glass of water, she grabbed the glass when I wasn't looking and washed it. She folded clothes on top of the laptop and was ready to unplug the cable modem to plug in the iron when I stopped her.
It took me an hour to reset the airport and get the wireless network running, which means I'm free from the desk, but now Marisol has guests over and this is actually the quietest place. I've uploaded some pictures a few posts down from my first day here for your viewing pleasure. Please keep in mind it was my first day with the camera and the photos are downsized mucho. Comment and I'll post larger ones.
