Let there be light!

We are finishing the second week of the third cuatri and the time has passed quickly so far. Betsy and I are forging ahead with the packet we made and the projects we developed during our planning week, and it has been going well.
We will probably start the community courses in a couple weeks, and when we do, Mondays will be rough because we will be teaching from 2:30 to 9:00 pm with a 30 minute break. I am not looking forward to that, but it will only be for about 8 weeks in total.
As the weather is getting hot, I am finding myself wishing I could be at the beach more and more. This past weekend, the power suddenly stopped working in my apartment. I wasn´t sure why, but I had heard that sometimes the bills are not delivered and then when you don´t pay on time (because you never received a bill) the power company cuts you off. I assumed this was what had happened, and since Monday was a holiday, I knew they´d be closed until Tuesday, so I joined Betsy for a weekend in Tulum. Then on Monday, I opted to go straight from Tulum to Yokdzonot to see Erica and Jorge until Tuesday morning.
When I got to the electric company on Tuesday, I found out my power had not been cut off and my bill was not yet delivered. So I paid the balance ahead of time and the lady told me she had no idea what could be wrong, and that they´d send someone to figure out the problem. But when I got home that night at 9 pm, there was no power. No fan. No A/C. No lights. Nada. And it was hot. So I went outside to look for a fuse box or something. When I looked at my meter, I noticed that it was the only one that was turned OFF. I flipped the switch back on and when I got upstairs, there was power! It´s a crazy thing to go through, but in the end, I was glad the problem was so easy to fix, and I was glad that I had had such a beautiful weekend in Tulum and Yokdzonot. ¡Y así es mi vida loca!
