How I find stuff and lose stuff
So hey
Finding stuff
Found my bag with the address book. Turns out one of the girls working in the office found it and put it in a filing cabinet for safe keeping but didnt tell anyone, and then was out of the office for a week. So I found it
Losing stuff
My firend Salvadora lent me poles for 5 nets and when I got on the bus from Esteli to Managua they were with my pile of stuff, but when the bus got to Managua, they were no longer there. I was bien aflijida, but talked to Jose Manuel (Of Fundacion Cocibolca, my counterpart organization, and all around great helpful guy), and he told me where I could have poles made. Sucks because I spent all this time WAITING for her to get me the poles because I dont have the money to buy new ones, and now I have to buy some anyway. Hmmm..but anyway, working in the forest I used wooden poles cut from trees a lot and those worked out okay.
I also lost my yoga mat the same way in Honduras. Left it in a taxi. I am a loser. This is why I should not have children. I will leave them on a bus in South America and someone will steal them and sell them on the black market.
