Roxanna, my Honduran mom, helped me clean 16 shirts, 2 pairs of pants, 10 pairs of socks, and 18 pairs of underwear. It took us both an hour…thank goodness I have Roxanna to help me!

Lavar la Ropa -- Laundry
Laundry. The word itself made me think about the simple task of hauling a basket of dirty clothes to the magic box that makes them clean, however, not so much anymore. Now, I think of the sweat and hard work of washing each piece of clothing by hand. I have to say that I felt EXACTLY like Lucy Ricardo when she was trying to work in the chocolate factory when Lucy was making candy with the professional and she was making a mess of everything!

Honduras
We attended language school in Copan Ruinas. Tegucigalpa is where we are serving as teachers at AFE.
That certainly gives new meaning to laundry DAY - All day. No more grumbling from me anymore as I tackle that household chore. mom
