SOMETHING NEW IN HONDURAS...

Hey there everyone, don´t give up on me yet...I am still blogging, it is just a little difficult sharing the computer room with the buddy. We were using the laptop in the living room for awhile, but it isn´t working, so I will blog when I can. Right now, Abner Daniel is asleep behind me and I am here typing in the dark. Just wanted to share my interesting Saturday evening...we had just gotten home and I had put the kids in bed and was cleaning up when I heard this aweful noise. I ask Abner, what was that! He said he wasn´t sure. I thought that a pig was stuck in our swamp area behind our house and that we were going to have to go and save it, but then it hit me...the noised stopped...could the neighbors really have just killed that pig? I heard them all in the backyard while I got ready for bed. I went to sleep with my mind wondering what that really was. In the morning, I had to go and ask our neighbor for something before church, I had to ask if they had really killed that pig and sure enough they had. Ana was laughing as she told me how they were trying to do it before I had gotten home, so they wouldn´t scare this gringa, but the water on the stove just wouldn´t boil fast enough. In June, I will have lived in Honduras for 10 years and still I endure culture shock. :o) By the way...hope you all had a great Christmas and HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2009 holds great things!

Did they kill it for eaten or for kicks and giggles? You need to get you some of that pork girl. Yumm! :-) Welcome back to blogland.
